Oh and she's not aloud near my chickens! lolLucky is the love of my life. I adopted her almost 8 years ago. She turned 15 on July 4th. She's a long haired chocolate and tan dachshund (mini) she went down with IVDD in April 2010 so she'd had back surgery for a ruptured disc before I adopted her. I would have to say take lots of car rides and maybe visits to the vet's office just to say hi - it breaks my heart to see her entire little body shaking for the ride and the visit. I don't breed or show her, or dogs at all.
