Last Sunday, we had the sweetest experience since we lost our little guy. Here in Los Angeles, they did the "Walk for the Underdog" charity event for rescue dogs. The local doxie group attended and they invited us to walk with them in honor of Pokey. We took Marta with us and walked around the La Brea tarpits and surrounding area on an extremely hot day. I thought you all might like to see the pictures since there were lots of wieners (and even a celebrity or two - hey it's LA). You can view them here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/dcardani/sets/72157605128691712/).

Enjoy!

Thanks for all the kind words! Sorry we've been so quiet lately. I still get a little sad (and a little happy) whenever I see another wiener dog. I sure do miss our little guy.

Also, sorry it took so long to respond. We went on vacation a day or two after I posted, and we just got back.

PD and I were having a very relaxing lunch on a restaurant patio while on vacation and saw an a d o r a b l e doxie strutting by with his owner. After PD took a few pictures I called out, "Hey, nice wiener!" :D The owner was pretty far away, but turned around and laughed. It felt good to see a little doxie again, make silly jokes and laugh.
