She was our one & only mini. My son spoiled her rotten and she just knew she was the Queen around here and expected to be treated as such.  He was the light of Ripley's life and no matter how much time had passed between visits she came alive everytime he walked in the door

She was born with a severe heart murmer  and the vet told us to expect maybe a year for her....well she made it to 7 and a half yrs. and each of them was filled with Dachsie fun and excitement.

Hug your Dachshunds close, their lives are far too short....
