Cinnamon, my beloved red mini dachshund from Southeastern, PA, and I honor Maggie & Joey, and their Dad and family, each week, to this day, with a note on the Rainbows Bridge web site. <br /><br />I still don't know how much the human heart can take, Joey, but as you know it's different for everyone, and your passing was something no loving parent could ever prepare for, and everyone here who had been inspired and moved by your Dad Carson over the years could, literally, feel his pain through the miles and tears.<br /><br />As we approach another Labor Day weekend, this one the 4th (impossible to believe!) shared with you from the Bridge, Joey, I pray for health, happiness and long lives for Rowdy and Bette shared with Dad Carson, and that you all feel how much you are loved by your friends here at TLASOIA, today and every day.<br /><br />Peace & love from Cinnamon's Humans,<br />and the PA Piebalds Maggie, Maxie and Melly Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-12538659722112378092014-02-06T17:14:32.848-06:002014-02-06T17:14:32.848-06:00Angel Joey, beloved sister angel Maggie, loving Da...Angel Joey, beloved sister angel Maggie, loving Dad Carson, & beloved Rowdy & Bette,<br /><br />I'm stopping by, Carson, on the eve of Joey's passing, one year ago tomorrow, to pay my respects to the remarkable, unique & unforgettable soul who is and will always be your beloved Joey. <br /><br />Having lived through the loss of my family's precious Cinnamon, and finding such tenderness and compassion, and abundant affection and appreciation for Dachshunds, here at The Long and Short of it All, reading about Joey's passing, in the words of his ever loving Dad, was gut wrenching. <br /><br />Joey's wit and charm, and that unique and endearing take on life from the perspective of your spotted Dachshund son, brought both smiles and tears, as he and then with Rowdy by his side, soldiered on following the loss of your beautiful Maggie in September, 2011.<br /><br />To beautiful, courageous, and loving Joey Bording, it has been an honor and privilege for me to get to know you and your family here at The Long and Short of it All. The determination & Dachshund pride that allowed you to overcome health challenges throughout your life, along with Dad Carson's caring and devotion to your cause, will remain with me forever. <br /><br />Bless you, angel Joey, and your loving Dad Carson, today and always.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Cinnamon's Humans & the PA Piebalds: Maggie, Melly & Max Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-52249796882165752242013-12-23T10:43:58.243-06:002013-12-23T10:43:58.243-06:00Carson & Family,

I know I did so on FB. I am so sorry for your losing precious Joey your boy who as you have said pretty much existed to please you in any way he could. I have seen that firsthand. what i will say is what i believe and have shared with too many lately - that the most important thing to a dog especially to a dachshund is that they leave this world knowing that they are loved, yes surrounded by love and that is certainly how Joey embarked on his journey to the rainbow Bridge with his most loving Dad there showereing him with love. Bless you and Rowdy in your loss you have been in my thoughts and prayers if not in my postings.

When I saw Maggie's face I was hooked, she looked so much like my Gunter. Then I fell in love with Joey. How could anyone not love them? I know the pain you are feeling and can understand not being able to come back til you are ready. You never really get use to missing the ones you love when they are gone and it hurts so bad. But the only thing worse would be to have never loved at all and not have all those wonderful memories. And what wonderful memories they are. I just hope you are okay and know that all your friends are here for you when you need us. <br /><br />Bev & Gunter (my doxie) and Roxie (my pug)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-31008698922664651162013-03-15T16:05:51.476-05:002013-03-15T16:05:51.476-05:00Carson & Rowdy,

I miss her every day but she left me so many beautiful memories to cherish and I know that she and Dexter Dog (my Dachsie who died young of an autoimmune disease) will both be there with wagging tails when I reach heaven's gates, just as your Joey and Maggie will be there to greet you.<br /><br />About a month after Dixie's death I adopted two more (a bonded pair) from a DRNA and they continue to bring me so much joy. I felt it was the best way I could honor her memory. <br /><br />I hope you will experience much more Dachsie love in your life as well. They are such special little beings. <br /><br />((Hugs)) <br /><br /> <br /><br /> Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08209297120840809760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5954899999461832288.post-6704053015512237012013-02-27T14:41:15.976-06:002013-02-27T14:41:15.976-06:00I am without words and filled with sadness as I re...I am without words and filled with sadness as I read about Joey's passing. <br /><br />Oh I love reading your blog...oh how very special your Dachshunds are as well as the stories shared over the years.
