Um, I have a confession to make. I think it reflects on my insanity. I just brought home a three year old female dacshund who due to divorce, work you name it, has been crated 16 hours a day. She cries when you go to pick her up like you are going to kill her. She rode the 1.5 hour ride home in my zipped up fleece and seemed happy. Then at home she got scared in the yard so I had to close the small kennel and pick her up, she cried so much. My two spoiled brats are really angry and were not nice to her so I just kept her separated into the other room with my ambassador, my poodle- shiatzu dog. Hubby is sleeping with them. She is red. My husband's Golden-Doodle was fine but just too bouncy. I think they will do great.

Now remember I have 7 golden-doodle pups to see to well matched homes. But this little dog's story was so very sad and I know our family can help her feel like a safe loved dog.

I miss my son"s dachshund too.
