Toby

This old man "takes a lickin and just keeps on tickin." Toby was our families very first Dachshund. He has blessed us with many years of happiness.

He has seen alot in his lifetime: births, deaths, hunting trips, family vacations, plane rides, weddings, anniversaries, birthdays and holidays. He has survived many winters, shrews, cats, fish, moose, through kids and grandchildren.

He is very loyal, loving, caring,sometimes he is sneaky, demanding and pushy. He knows what he wants and when he wants it. Eager for car trips , he gets excited and makes it known he is going too. Just when you thought you had slipped out the door successfully, there he is waiting in the passengers seat.

Not seeing many longhair dachshunds here in Alaska, people would ask, "what kind of dog is he ?" and we would simply tell them, "He is our Long Hair hippy boy"

We love him dearly and hope to have many more years with him.
