Dachshund Mafia
Resources. Rescue. Connection.
It is with mixed emotions I share that I helped our boy, Blaze, transition out of his physical body today. It was time, he was tired. He missed his best friends .. the original “Dachshund Mafia”. This is him with Tuna (left), his son, and Tiffany, his Love. We often listened to Elvis’ “Hound, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “You are not alone.” Missy was letting Prince know today that he is not alone in our family of going through what he is; she is there as well as his other brothers are. I am confident he’s receiving energy from a number of people who care about and/or have come, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Accept support and comfort.” This is an interesting one for me to write about. Most of my life I’ve been the one who has been offering support and/or comfort to others, starting with when I was a child. It’s fascinating to me as ultimately we all live in “animal bodies” which, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “All in right timing.” This is a philosophy I’ve lived with for many years. Inevitably, as these things go, MUCH easier to put into practice and/or live when things aren’t as important as what’s going on with Prince. I had a lot to get done the past couple of days; yet, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Clarity supports connection.” In the photo with the caption, it’s clear that Prince is where he wants to be, at that time. In fact, hours later, he’s still on the comforter yet I dragged it on “this” side of the gate so it could be closed as it makes it easier, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Pay attention to the details.” I’m lucky in that I’m a person who usually pays equal attention to the details while looking at the bigger picture. I’ve been so consumed in Prince of late, plus my own health issues or rather now feeling SO much better than I have for a, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Care for the caretakers.” It can easily become all-consuming to care for those who have health issues. This, of course, applies whether it’s our beloved animals or people. I am somewhat fortunate in that I am home currently and have the advantage of being with my boys, both Prince and Blaze,, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Rest: sometimes what we best need is to recharge.” More and more, Prince is either plastered to my side nudging me to pet him or touch him OR he’s nesting away from me. I’m now keeping a comforter on the floor in the laundry room where he retreats to. The brown, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Make a choice; you can always make another choice.” I made the choice to let Prince make his own choices about his path with his stomach cancer. He’s a boy with a serious behavioral issue, biting, which we haven’t had to deal with in some time. The choices he’s made already, ~ LEARN MORE ~

My Prince’s Gift: “Embrace the quiet.” I’ve been of the higher energy, active ilk most of my life. I was running at age nine months even. Quiet has not been my “friend” much of my life; I’m learning how to be friends with it now. Another gift from Prince since I’ve never made peace, ~ LEARN MORE ~
