Karl turned 11 today! We are lucky to know when his “real” birthday is. He was well loved and cared for before he went into rescue. He still wears the coat that came with him from his first mom, who we can tell clearly loved him. This is his 3rd birthday with us. He celebrated with a nice walk, a Circa burger (and a few fries), and lots of chill time. Karl is kind, loves everyone, takes care of his brother River, and does not care one bit that he is disabled. I want to be more like him. Here’s to many more years for this sweet boy who has the heart and kindness of McGraw, the fight and will of Sammy and Remo, and the wisdom of Denzel, Helen, and Presto ❤️

Presto
circa 2006 - May 13, 2023.

It has taken me a little over a week to write about our little man Presto. He left us last Saturday two months to the day we lost Remo. This much loss in a short period of time wasn’t what we had in mind. I am pretty sure he waited for us to come home from vacation to say goodbye. That’s just one of many things he did that I am grateful for. Presto came home yesterday so now it is time to say goodbye and thank you to our sweet old man.

When I lost Big D in 2021 I was struggling. Later that year I decided that nothing could heal my broken heart aside from another senior dachshund. DRSF had just the guy for us. Presto, your foster mom Jennifer sent me your photos and a little video of you and I knew I couldn’t wait very long to come scoop you up. My whole goal was to have you with us for Christmas because I didn’t want to go through my first one without Denzel without you and didn’t know if you would have more than one left. On December 23, 2021, I left early in the morning for Ft. Lauderdale to meet you at Starbucks in Hollywood. We were old friends right away and headed back home that night. We got to spend Christmas together that year and also again this last next year. You kept giving us bonus time. You got to come to Arizona for the winter two years in a row. I don’t know a lot about your earlier years or really how many there were (maybe between 15-17), but we do know a nice woman found you on the street and saved your life by taking you to DRSF. They brought you into rescue and the rest is history. Later the woman who found you told me you were scared and hungry, but loving even then. You really didn’t have many reasons to trust us or anyone but you did. I could tell that you learned how to fend for yourself while you were alone out there one day when I brought you to my office and saw how even at your small size how fast you could take down a trash can if you thought there may be food in it. You met one of my clients that day and he was so touched by you that he created a piece of art for me with you in it to imagine what you must have been up to in Florida. You had a way about you and ability to touch the hearts of all those who met you. Thank you for choosing us.

You loved the sun, your people, your brother Karl, watching sports with your fam, and you never saw food you would turn down. You didn’t discriminate. You would gladly eat whipped cream or yogurt right off the floor when I got home just as much as you loved a pup cup from Dutch Bros or Starbucks. You stayed close to me when I needed it. You trotted around the house and reminded me of Denzel with your slow steady march. Eventually you couldn’t walk or stand well at all anymore. You also couldn’t see us anymore, but I think you knew you were safe. All we wanted was for you to feel safe. You went from the streets to having multiple beds to go between during the day. Naps in multiple locations in one afternoon (especially in the sun) was probably your favorite thing to do.

Fly high and run free from the body that held you back, little man. We will always miss you and be grateful for all the time you gave us. You will always be with us. I like to think Big D. found you to look after you and told you thank you for taking care of me. Like I told you before you crossed that bridge I have come to hate so much, you are safe and we will absolutely see you again. ❤️🌈

Seven years ago we went to south Florida to adopt Sammy. We didn’t get enough time, that is for sure. He is missed beyond measure and talked about often. The day he came into my life was truly one of the days that made a real difference. I became a better person when I met him and being his mom gave me a new perspective in many ways. I’m not kidding one bit. I will always be so grateful to for thinking I was the right fit for him. Really, he was the right fit for me and I could not have known how much I needed those 4.5 years with him
