In Memory of...

I still remember the day we brought him home Keelie held him so tight keeping him warm, safe, and secure. They locked eyes the whole way home and you could feel special bond forming. His name was Frankie Oscar Ferguson and he was our first pet we shared as a married couple, a miniature short haired dachshund. He held a special place in a our heart, when we found him in the classifieds after many days searching we knew he was the one because we found out he was actually born on December 15 the day we were married, so it was a no brainer when we drove to Justin, TX and picked him up. Frankie was good dog my best friend right through it all if i die...wait a minute he's the one that almost died a couple times. When he ate a metal rod, tore the wires out of an electric blanket, or the time he dug a tunnel under the carpet in the game room between the carpet and pad, and several more occasions come to mind. Frankie slept in a baby play pen until he chewed a hole through it then he moved to our bed where he slept until the day he moved on to a better place(actually to a friends house that had another dachshund he could play with best decision for the both of us.) I can go on all day about the destruction and $$$$ we spent on him but in the end he'll always have a special place in the Ferguson household history books and hearts. We love you and miss you Frankie(not really the last one.) All joking aside he was a good dog with just a little case of ADD.
