Herbie was born in Colfax, California on August 11, 2009. He was gently raised from birth by private breeders in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Rewind to March 2008. Hamilton discusses future plans with Chrissy's parents. Chrissy's parents reacted favorably to the idea of marriage. In offering advice, Chrissy's parents recommended that Hamilton get Chrissy a dog to ease the in transition of moving west. Herbie was born on Hamilton's first day work. Chrissy had picked out Herbie's name in advance. Chrissy held each dog, knowing that she would know Herbie from the second they met. Shortly thereafter, Herbie joined the Decker-Callison family. His life as a spoiled rotten dachshund then began. In the first few months of his life, Herbie visited wineries and stayed in luxury hotels. He made three trips on an airplane to meet his grandparents in Oklahoma. He made two emergency trips to the vet and countless trips to the frozen yogurt shop. This is his story and the story of his parents.
