Wine for Dachshund Lovers: Long Dog Winery

Here's a gift they will not soon forget. Too bad it's only available for delivery within the boundaries of Ontario! From Long Dog Winery: WHY "LONG DOG"?
I grew up with dachshunds. James gave me a wire-haired dachshund puppy for my 30th birthday and was soon devoted to the breed as well, as was Steven. Otto died suddenly of heart failure in 1998 (we were all devastated) and his ashes are buried under the first Pinot Noir vine planted in 1999. We then acquired Ben, a beautiful big red wire-haired dachshund sadly killed by a speeding car. The current dachshunds-in-residence are Bella and Fanny. Calling the vineyard "Long Dog" just made us smile. Check out more pics at Longdog.
