In Memory of Angel (Dachshund/Pomeranian)

Angele was 14 years old when she passed away on March 23,2009. She was a longhaired Dachshund and Pomeranian mix. I was nursing in Southern California and became friends with the granddaughter of one of my patients. She owned the parents of the puppies that were to be born and said I needed one! I saw her at 1 day old and brought her home at 6 weeks old. She weighed 19 1/2 ounces!

She was raised with my 20 pound cat named Tyrone. He taught her to use the litter box and she taught him how to play hide and seek and how to love puppies! She worked every day with me in the hospital and visited with young and old, those in bed due to surgery, physical therapy or even I.V. therapy. She had her own folder in the admin. office and nurses, physicians and even inspectors knew her by name and they all loved her. If you are ever blessed with a Angel like mine you will be able to touch the lives of those around you.

Lorelei said it beautifully. Your Angel was a special lil guy and how kind of you to share him with others in need. Nothing like a pet to help you out in a tough time.

Excellent story of Angel and how she has made a big difference in the workplace toward others. Angel left a lot of loving paw prints in people's hearts even after her passing. That'll never be forgotten for being one of God's little helpers.
