A year ago, I lost my sweet precious Siglen Altair.  I was trying to drain the hot tub, but I couldn't get the hose to siphon.  I went in the house, got sidetracked, and the next thing I knew, Brekke was scratching at the door.  I went to check on her and she was dripping wet.  I looked up, and there was Siglen, floating head down!  Please keep your furkids safe if you have a hot tub or a pool.  Siglen had always jumped in before when the cover was off, but this time, I wasn't there to set her out on the step.

I like to think of her at the Rainbow Bridge, nestled in my dad's lap with the others.  Dad would have his two - Johanna and Useless, plus Heidi, Gretl, Sorcha, and Siglen.  What a dachsie pile!

special thoughts today for Siglen.  I remember that day, but I can't believe a whole year has gone by.  Hugs to you.
Doxies are like Lays Potato Chips....no one should have just one!

My thoughts are with you and Rick.  Siglen reminded me so much of Clifford in her personality.  I really wish the 2 of them could have met.  One day at the Bridge she can greet Clifford as the wonderful hostess she was.
There's nothing like having a dachshund tongue up your nose at 3 a.m.

What a hard day for you......I am sure she is right where you picture her...and I am sure they welcomed her with open paws a year ago.  Hugs to you....

I remember it well because I too lost a beloved little girl to a drowning accident.  Has it been a year already, it hardly seems possible?  I'm sure my Sasha and your Siglen are great pals by now.

Julia,
I still remeber that night.  I can't believe how fast this year has flown.  I know she and all the other DC doxies are having a ball and the old members are loving them for us till we join them.

I'm sure Siglen was a wonderful hostess to my Rudy when he arrived.   Thinking of you and your family on the anniversary of Siglen's passing.
