I love everyone. I love playing with the other foster dogs in my foster home. Running, chasing and playing in my foster parents fenced yard is amazing :) I'm learning that kenneling isn't a bad thing, clean blankets, fresh food twice a day, I feel like I have my own maid ;) My foster mom does have me on a diet though as my veterinarian thinks I need to lose a few pounds. I do require a physically fenced yard as I don't walk on a harness and leash and I definitely have no recall at this point in life.Everything is new to me, and listening is not a dachshund's No. 1 trait ;) Can you be my furever home? I am 4 years young, I just celebrated my birthday Dec 28th, I weigh 14 pounds, my adoption fee is $400 + sales tax $18=$418 My adoption fee helps with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, spay, dental and microchipping.
