dachshund - doxie rainbow bridge memorials:: Aubry's Surgeries
I don't post here very much with returning to college and work, but i lurk on occasion and enjoy the pictures. So when my daughter's Bully Aubry became sicker and sicker I knew her heart was breaking and the dachshund community would come out to help. You can see her full story at the Bully site below. (and verify the authenticity through the site or the Auburn University Small Animal clinic in Auburn, AL.)

After 5 surgeries and a valiant fight, Aubrey passed over the rainbow bridge with her Mom holding her and at her side until the end.

-Donate if you can; if not please repost! Blessing to all that help! The surgeries cost more than $8100. My daughter has managed to pay all except the last $2100 (due a the end of the month). They have received just less than 1/2 of their goal. If you can chip in (even $1, she was be so appreciative!) I attached a pic at the end, so you could see our sweet baby before she went to heaven. :( tears

Thanks for the reply Bette, but some Amazon reviews make me wary of Petzlife. Quite a few people mention health problems with their dogs after use, so I think I'll just stick with the toothpaste and continue to try to work out how to get more time brushing.

Thanks Bette, but I'm still trying to come up with more stuff. My place isn't that big, I know that hiding treats would occupy my little squeaker for about 20 minutes.

So beyond exhausting her the day before and hiding treats, any other ideas?

They told me to go to the one and only skin doctor in Washington state that is 2 hours drive away. Being that he is the only one, I can only imagine the cost.

Happy wiener Wednesday!!!

A few quick shares, if you�ll indulge me.

1) Yesterday I published my 100th post on Rufus on the Web: http://wp.me/p27Fw1-cH. It was very exciting for me and I sincerely appreciate everyone who has been supportive of the website and my photography endeavor. Thank you. It�s really just a small passion project of mine, but your support is anything but small.

2) Speaking of� there was a recent article published about me and my photography. If you got some free time, check it out: http://patch.com/A-skwk; it just a fun human interest profile piece. I�m flattered to be featured.

3) Finally and most importantly, Monday I photographed a bonded pair of longhair doxies in need of their forever home for SCDR.org: http://wp.me/p27Fw1-cX; please cross post, forward, tweet, retweet, etc. Some of the pictures actually came out rather nice I think. See below / attached.

Okay friends. Thanks for reading. Have a great day!!!
