Captain Jack

Captain Jack RIP Captain Jack 11/20/23

Jack developed a very aggressive brain tumor. He will be missed dearly. The passing of my mommy was very devastating for me.

My mommy Deanna passed away very unexpected on January 24th and she was my best friend . I was able to go live with Deanna's best friend Denae, I was so attached to her and was like a magnet every step she took . She would look into my big sad brown eyes and would try to explain to me my mommy was now with Jesus in heaven , and she then would just hold me and cry. But then reality started to happe

n and even though I got a long with Denae's own dogs , her dogs were not happy I was a part of their house hold. She had a little Pom that was a very special needs puppy and he is most definitely a mommy baby and with me also trying to be with her at all times it just was not working out. Plus her older 2 papillons were not happy I was trying to be a part of the family. Her oldest papillon Haley was actually not wanting to eat . So things were quite upside down and Denae knew she just had to give all this to God and she prayed for answers from both God and Deanna, "please what do I do?" Then a couple days later she found Promised Land Dachshund Sanctuary and called and talked to Connie. Connie told Denae she had no openings and could not take me . Then Denae was ok, well guess it was not meant to be. She was crying and asking Deanna what does she need to do, please help me ! Then 2 days later Connie contacted her and said she could not believe it she had an opening and could take me in. She started crying again and knew that this was all going to be ok. So we made plans to drive to Midland/Odessa and take me to the sanctuary. We met with Connie and talked with her and met some of her dachshund kids . She explained to Connie how extremely hard this was for her and she promised her that I was going to be just fine. As Denae left she felt at ease and that Deanna was with us the whole drive taking me to Midland. Connie kept her updated on me and how he was doing and that I was ready for adoption. Now my new mommy drove over 28 hours to get me and I'm in my new loving home with my new mommy and daddy and new sister Moxie. I know prayers were answered and that Deanna was the one that guided me and Denae through this whole process. Thank you for following me and thank you Denae and Connie for all you did for me. I will be just fine here in Illinois. Watch and see.

It comes with great sadness that we must report that Captain Jack has crossed over the Rainbow Bridge yesterday around 4:45pm. He fought hard but his fight has ended. Everyone has been so supportive and interactive and has made this even harder. We want to thank The Promised Land Dachshund Sanctuary for picking us to adopt a Texas dog..there was approximately 1500 applicants for Jack and somehow Connie Eicher picked us. I personally (Dad) want to thank you for allowing me to fill a hole in my heart once our Cocoa had passed. Connie felt/knew something and I will forever be grateful. Jack passed in our arms. We were by his side and knew he was loved. Jack was adored by many people...they didn't even mind when he would accidentally ti**le on their boat because he was so excited. He LOVED his boat rides..barking at squirrels and being held by Dawn. He loved his Sisters and thought it was funny when he would slide in and steal their new toy...only to take it around the corner and rip it to shreds in seconds. He loved his Doritos and cheese. Don't ever open either one if you didn't want an audience. Binkley-Ross funeral home will be cremating him for us so he will forever be by our side. He adorned our house for almost 7 years.....we just wish it could have been 8. Thank you all...Sweet Dreams Jack. We love you!!!!

It was a beautiful fall day. Took a ride on the lake to do my Captain duties. Had help guiding the boat cause, well you know…. I can’t see. Felt nice to have the breeze in my face.

Feeling tired these past few days after dropping down on my meds.  Love all my fans.
