RAINBOW DIAMOND & AUGUSTUS “BEANS” WEINERSCHNITZEL

Photos BY Abe Ortiz

Rainbow Diamond and Augustus Beans Weinerschnitzel (“Beans”) are a happily engaged pair of Dachshunds. Beans proposed to Rainbow on Christmas 2010 (You Tube— Rainbow’s Engagement www.youtube.com/watch?v=Arm3OqzyBk8). They met a few weeks after Beans’ dad, Abe Ortiz, had gone over to do a photo shoot with Rainbow at Holly and Sean Hirshberg’s house. He thought that the two would most likely get along, so he brought Beans to Rainbow’s house the next time he went over. Beans was impressed by Rainbow’s passionate commitment to her career as The Anti-Puppy-Mill Spokesdog for Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas. Rainbow fell in love with Bean’s gentlemanly manner and career as a Spokesdog for Lafmil Photography. They immediately began courting and quickly knew that they were right for each other. They spend time together swimming and hanging out during photo shoots. Rainbow and Beans got engaged at Christmas, but a wedding date has not been set. It is sure to be the wedding of the century, rivaling the royal family! Both Rainbow and Beans, and their relationship, can be followed on Facebook at “Rainbow Diamond” and “Augustus Beans Weinerschnitzel.” Beans’s dad can be found at www.lafmilphotography.com and Rainbow’s parents run the nonprofit, The Dinner Garden (www.dinnergarden.org).
