I feel so much better now that I am groomed. A bath and a hair cut makes me feel so much better! I am just beginning this amazing journey to learn to live life as a house pet....can you be my person and continue my journey with me? House training, wearing a harness, getting used to being attached to a leash, toys...what are those? So much to learn in this new world I am in but I will work hard to learn to be a house pet. I do require a fenced yard as if I got away from my foster mom I would run and run and run and not come back.I am almost 10 months old, I weigh8 pounds, my adoption fee is $500 plus sales tax $22.50=$522.50   My adoption fee helps cover all of my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, spay, dental if needed and microchipping.

Adoption Process
Usually we are contacted by a SD shelter about a dachshund that is not doing well (nipping etc.) and that they are going to be put down. We take them in get them vetted and then place them up for adoption after they have been evaluated. We also take calls from folks who have called their local shelter about there dachshund that may have started nipping at small children etc and are told the dog would be put down. We also take calls from other rescues about breeder dogs.
