A NICE NOTE FROM DONNIE AND LINDA'S NEIGHBOR, BETTY

"Thank you for sharing our snapshot yesterday! I don't know how you did it, but you made us all seem younger.

It is always a pleasure when Gene and I run into Don and Linda. Truly they are our favourite neighbors. Fortunate, too, Gene and I were, that I was holding our little dog, Jasmine, when the shutter snapped. She made us look a little less scruffy by comparison! Ha!

For dog lovers, Jasmine is one of three original types of standard Dachshunds: Smooth-haired, Long-haired and Wire-haired. Our Jasmine is a Wire-haired Dachshund, "Brindle" color. Two of our three cats are larger than she. Purportedly, Wire-haired Dachshunds are the clowns of the breed, according to "The Dachshund Handbook", by Caroline Coile, PhD. And every creature in our household would certainly attest to that. Jasmine, like other pets we have, is a rescued dog, found at our local animal shelter in 2003."
