Doing rescue work, there's been plenty of times I've found myself looking at life and impending death. Sometimes, more than not, it causes me to take stock in my less-than-perfect life, take value in what I have and do my best to make sure

that I do all I can for those I love while I'm still here. Such was the case when I listened to an elderly man tell me of his impending surgery to save his life; how despite the surgery being a necessity, with the risk involved, he felt compelled to handle his affairs just in case. Having handled all other important task, namely making sure his beloved wife of many years, would be provided for and not left with problems to handle, he had one last very important thing to do. He stated that he could face the uncertainty of surviving the surgery if he knew that his puppies were well cared for and asked for our help in re-homing them. Without hesitation, we not only offered our help but extended that offer to help provide vet care (including spay and neutering) for their adult dogs, who are also the parents of the pups. 

 

Webster's mom was a Lab/Dachshund mix; his father a Chihuahua mix. That gives this little fellow a very colorful personality! He's adventurous and bold as a Dachshund, loyal as a Chihuahua and affectionate as a Lab all rolled up in a pint-sized body. He's fully of energy, playful and well-socialized towards people.
