A little over a year and a half ago, Dustin (aka Dusty) sauntered into my life at a time I was still recovering from the loss of another dear canine friend. He had all the endearing doxie characteristics we all enjoy—a little aloof, a little pushy and an innate ability to scope out a treat wherever it may be hiding. But he also had a polite sweetness about him, waiting patiently to be allowed on the couch or tolerating the onslaught of kisses my daughter’s dog would bestow upon him. He was a predictable creature of habit, wanting to walk the same path each day and crossing the road in exactly the same spot. Any suggestion of an alternate route was met with some resistance and a look that questioned my motivation. I find it hard to walk that same path without tears.
Dustin succumbed suddenly and unexpectedly on April 7, 2017 from a medical condition that emergency veterinary staff could not reverse. The shock of his passing gave way to the realization of how fragile life is and how we should cherish every waking moment with our loved ones be they human or otherwise. I am grateful for the time I had with this dear boy, short as it was. He did more for me than I for him.

We would like to honor the doctors and staff at Lovers Lane Animal Medical Clinic in Dallas Texas. We also do so to memorialize the memory of Cali Krueger Norcross, our beautiful 15 year old mini who passed peacefully from this earth on June 4th, 2017. As any aging doggie would, Cali needed frequent medical care over the last 5 years of her life, including a number of emergency procedures and one emergency surgery during the middle of a severe ice storm! The staff at LLAMC was outstanding throughout those years and many procedures, always treating her with love and care that was amazing. She rarely entered there with out the front desk staffing saying in unison "Caliiii!!!" to greet her.
We became familiar with ATDR on July 29th, 2013 when we adopted our other baby, Napoleon, from you all. We cant imagine our life without him, and greatly appreciative for all ATDR does.
Please use these funds to help with sick and needy babies get the care they need, and do so with Cali and LLAMC in mind.
With great thanks and respect.

Pumpkin crossed the Rainbow Bridge yesterday.
She came into our lives 7 years ago and it is hard to not have her here. She was the manager of our household, the protector of us all, she kept all the squirrels at bay, managed the goings-on of the neighborhood cats, reminded us of all feeding times (or the approach of a feeding time), lover of all food, a sun beam dog, playmate of her fellow ATDR dachshund brother Chase, the constant couch companion, thunder buddy, pretty sure she always belonged in the bed, and most of all the best friend to us.
Two years ago she became paralyzed from IVDD and lost the use of her back legs, bowels, and bladder. That did not slow her down as she zoomed around in her cart or patrolled the yard. She was our constant shadow and was loved deeply.
Our house is quiet and there is a hole in our hearts as we mourn you, our little lady boss dog. Run free and we will meet again at the Rainbow Bridge. |

Kick the tires and light the fires, retired United States Air Force Lt. Col. James Wendel Wilson is on his way to heaven. The "short smiling Texan" died peacefully with his family beside him Sept. 5, 2017, after giving Alzheimer's and complications a run for their money.
Jim had a lifetime love affair with football, the Westlake Chaps, Sousa marches, dachshunds, the Aggies, jelly beans and catching bass.
In lieu of flowers, donate to Westlake Band Parents, P.O. Box 160522, Austin, Texas, 78716-0522; All-Texas Dachshund Rescue, P.O. Box 841336, Pearland, Texas 77584; or an animal shelter in your area. |

 On October 30, 2017, we lost our sweet Romeo. We had 6 1/2 special years with our first fur baby. We knew he was destined to be ours from the very first moment we picked him up - he jumped into the backseat and sat between the kids and let them pet him all the way home. Romeo has been a faithful and true companion and we will miss and remember him forever. We are so grateful to ATDR for gifting him to our family.

Our Scout died Thursday. He was a trooper until the very end. While at the emergency vet hospital being checked out he had a seizure. We took that as a sign that he wanted to be free and we reluctantly let him go. He gave us almost 10 years of entertainment and sometimes grief, companionship as well as stubbornness and marched on these last few years despite having a multitude of health scares and ailments. His tenacious determination had us keep him around as long as we could—and maybe that was a bit selfish—but we got so much more in return from his unconditional love.
Godspeed Scout.
Lee and Sydney
