It's with a very sad heart that I let you know that both of our dear, dear friends have crossed the Rainbow Bridge to play on forever in our memories.

In the good news department, I got a new dog in September 2010. He came to us as Stunner, and that would not do. He's now Toby and took to his new name very fast. (He didn't really appear to know his other name anyhow) See his pix below and in the WeinerWall.




My two, a classic pair of dachshunds. Always funny, always spoiled and never miss a chance to cuddle. We started with Rummy in 1994. Ginny joined us in 1995. 



Rummy, my big boy, took his name from the color of his coat. The color of a fine dark Rum. And yes he did need the sweater, it was -15c.

Rummy crossed the bridge in May 2008. He was 14.
 

Ginny's name on the other hand, we had some trouble with. We ended up staying the the liquor theme and named her after that important martini ingredient, Gin.

Ginny crossed  in October 2009. She was 14.
 


Toby is a real kook. Runs around the house like his tail is on fire. He's taken to learning tricks quite quickly. I've posted a few videos of him doing tricks on-line on YouTube.
