Our first dachshund Salchicha crossed the Rainbow Bridge late yesterday. On May 10 she would have been 17 years old. Best behaved dog we've ever had. Thank you girl for all the years of unconditional love, and making sure I had a clean face at bed time. Seen here sleeping through hurricane Harvey.

Condolences on the loss of Salchicha. 17 is a good run for a dog.

It's tough to lose your dog but 17 years is a darn good run. She looks like a sweetheart. Sorry.

You have my condolences.

Rest easy girl, good girl.

Sorry for the loss of your good friend.

I'm sorry for your loss, X. We know the feeling all too well.

Thanks. She's been fighting kidney disease for the last 6 years. Special diet and some treatments helped a lot. She truly was a special one of a kind.

The pain in your heart will pass, and someday you'll meet again as you cross over the Rainbow Bridge.
Remember our loyal pets are put on this earth to teach us how to love.

I'm sorry to hear of her passing, stay strong. What a picture, pure love and trust. What a long life she had.

Sorry for your loss. I’m preparing myself for that day with my current hound.

So Sorry - Love this line.

Beautiful Belly to have rubbed.

Very sorry to hear about Salchicha.

Your picture looks very familiar in that our daschunds love to sleep like that as well. In fact that might be why my hips always hurt.

Our prior dachshunds, Bud (14), Wendy (15), Macie (13), Gretchen (14), and Jacks (18) will welcome Salchicha as she crosses the Rainbow Bridge.

Sorry to read. Hate when it happens.

Sorry for you guys X. She looks like a doll. They enrich our lives so much. Rip beautiful girl.

Sorry to hear this, pets mean so much to some of us.

Sorry to hear this, always hard losing a member of the family.

I'm sorry to hear this. My condolences. .

Sorry for your loss X. Hope another one can take her place for you.

Godspeed sweet Salchicha. Always heartbreaking to hear of another good pet going over the bridge, but they should be remembered and spoken for. I always get misty reading these threads, but will always grieve with the owners, always..

My condolences for you loss, may your days be comforted by wonderful memories

I love dachshunds, always wanted one - my wife and I were in Albany, GA for work few years back and was at the mall there after dinner one evening, Well, the mall had a pet store that had pups so we wandered in - and they had dachshunds! One was long haired and so sweet, I immediately wanted to take her home - it took my wife quite some time to talk me down - since then I think of that sweet pup and wonder but with all our cats - its tough to be a dog in a cat house as the saying in our house goes.
