There is no easy way to share this news, but Al Hansen passed away unexpectedly Friday morning. Al was a husband, father and friend to many, and will be missed, especially by those with whom he connected through his love of dogs. And that remains an important matter at hand. While this will be the last batch of puppies from Enchanted Desert Labs, Bev and Al’s friends and family remain committed to ensuring that any of the puppies they are currently rearing will receive all the nurturing and veterinary care for which they are scheduled. This includes puppies that have currently been spoken for, and those that will soon be available to new homes. Look to this site for continued updates and postings about the availability of the puppies.
If you so believe, somewhere there’s a marsh pond where Al has been handed a mallard, and a young chocolate is experiencing the glory of his big, loving embrace. And its tail wag never ends. RIP.
