Meet Birdie
Here is Birdie. She gets her name from eating and looking like a baby bird. She's about 9 years old. She’s around 3 pounds and is a complete Velcro dog. If you are out of her sight, she whines and will try to find you. She always needs to be touching you and is full chihuahua so be forgiving if she bites you for moving her or trying to pick her up (she gets better over time). She’s still learning to go potty outside which makes us assume she was never outside before. She may need pee pads around. Birdie would really prefer to be a lone dog with a lone person. She will tolerate others, but she really would like to have a human all to herself. Birdie's adoption fee will be $200, and we she will be fully vetted including being spayed and having a dental.
Adoption Process
We have a rigorous process whereby the applicant applies online and is carefully screened to ensure that all currently owned pets have been spayed/neutered and are up to date on vaccinations and on monthly heart worm meds. The applicant provides vet and personal refs and must demonstrate that he/she is capable and willing to commit to the dachshund for the rest of his/her life providing love, neutron, exercise, and appropriate veterinary care, and that a plan is established for what happens if the adopter can no longer care for the dachshund or if the dachshund outlives him/her. A home visit is required prior to being approved to adopt and if all goes well and the match is right, K Kids and the adopter execute an adoption agreement after the fee has been collected. Fees are $350 for puppies, $275 for adult dogs ages 1-7, and $150 for senior dogs ages 8 and older. Then the adopter can take possession of the dachshund. If he/she does not get the dachshund wanted, K Kids keeps the application on file for when a suitable match can be made.
