A dauntless dachshund was my darling dog. He was charmed to chase the cavorting frog. He always ran and romped with great agility , For sniffing and smelling mice, he had a special ability. He was rock black in shade and was very bold. He stayed loyal and lively and never grew old. His swaddling gait and swiveling move, Brought much joy. From life, all boredom he did remove. Safeguarded and shielded our home with a surveilling eye. Lazily loitered with us under the lulling evening sky. His sparkling starry eyes shone with joyful delight. He sought snuggles and cuddles as if they were his right. Sad, one day, our darling dachshund for ever departed. Dropping his doggy duties, from us, he silently parted. The memory of the magical moments he gave, merrily stays. A faithful friend who gave us funny and festive days!

this is a lovely tribute to your dog. Nice picture too. We were so heartbroken when our Snickers died three years ago.

I know the feeling of losing one that is truly loved, and they seem to love us as well. I enjoyed reading this one today. Thank you for sharing it with us. Sara K

They are adorable Valsa and so cute especially the long haired ones. We had two long haired chihuahuas, not at the same time, and once the last one moved on we couldn't bring ourselves to get another. All the best for Eve's contest - Hugs Maria

Dachshunds are lovable. I had one too. Hearts break when they die. Good luck with the contest.
