Our Darling Daisy!

Daisy came to her new home on Januray 15th 2012. She is a 2 year old purebred beagle. We found her at a dog rescue organization in Layton, Utah. Her owner did not want her anymore, and actually wanted to have her euthanized for no reason, other than he didn't want her anymore. We are so glad that we found her. She is very good mannered, and just loves to follow us around. We fostered her for a week to make sure she would be a good fit for our family, and then adopted her the following week.
Daisy is a great running partner too! She loves to go on walks and runs in our neighborhood with us. She keeps me company during the day when all the kids are gone at school. We are so happy to have her in our home!

In Memory of Sunshine

Braden and his dog on his first dayat the Wardle home

As you may or may not have heard, our sweet little dog Sunshine has passed away. He left this life on New Years Day2012. He had been sick for just 5 days. I took him to the vet on the second day after he had been vomitting and began to urinate blood. The vet prescribed some antibiotics for a possible urinary tract infection and pills to help with the nausea and vomitting. Sunshine became weaker each day and had difficulty walking and standing up due to his blood levels dropping so low. He slept all day for the the past few days of his life and I'm hoping he didn't suffer much. He peacefully passed from this life at 11 pm New Years Day while in his basket with me stroking him. We will miss him and will remember all of the good times we had together in the short 6 years he was with us. We hope to see you again in Heaven Sunshine!!!!!!! You were a great dog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
