A new beginning...

Within 24 hours of Duncan leaving us, we knew we wanted another LH Dachsie ASAP. We knew that whatever dog we got would not be another Dunky, but we both so strongly felt that another dog would help us heal ~

I did a LOT of research; looked at both puppies and at rescue dogs. My two canine~wise friends (the Robins!) gave me much good advice (thanks, ladies!!), so after 2-3 weeks, we found a breeder who had 2 male puppies up for sale.From left to right, meet Seamus Ryan, Brogan Patrick, and Hannah ~ @ 3 weeks old. Can you tell they were born on St. Patrick's Day?!?! :-)))

Hannah was already spoken for. Briefly, we considered getting both the boyos... but for now we will wait on a second one...

I'd asked the breeder (the wonderful Kathy!) to let us know which one is the bigger lover of the pair... thinking that would be the one for us... but then she emailed us this picture......and our heart was lost! This is Seamus Ryan... who could resist that face?!?!?! So we are about 90% sure this is the boyo who will be ours ~

Kathy (from Idaho) will be coming our way at the end of next month on her way to a dog show... she will bring us our baby then.

Is it May 29th yet??? :-)))))))))

OK - I seriously like dogs about as much as you like kids after tonsil surgery (LOL *wink*) but OMG are those puppies adorable!!! I could cuddle one of those for a long time!
