Saving One
Dachshund at a Time!
Meet Archie, a charming little bundle of energy and loyalty wrapped up in a 10-lb frame! This 6-year-old mini dachshund is brave, smart, and playful, with a funny, affectionate side that will keep you on your toes. Archie is always up for an adventure and is eager to please, knowing several commands, including 'sit', 'leave it', and 'time for bed'. He enjoys the simple pleasures in life, like playing with squeaky toys and a good game of tug-of-war, and he'll happily curl up with you for a nap afterward. Archie has already shown great potential with the help of a trainer, and he gets along with other dogs and cats, too! While Archie is looking for a patient, dachshund-savvy woman or older couple who can provide a stable, adult-only home and gentle guidance, he promises to bring joy, companionship, and a whole lot of love into your life. With a little understanding, Archie will be a devoted and unique addition to your family, offering a lifetime of laughter and memories. Are you the one Archie has been waiting for? If so, get in touch, and he'll be sure to bring sunshine and tail wags into your world! MUST HAVE DACHSHUND EXPERIENCE! No apartments please! No children!
Duncan
Duncan is a sweet 4.5 year old, energetic boy looking for a single alpha female to be his pack leader. He is not a fan of men, children, or busy environments. He does have a history of biting both a child and an adult, however, shortly after arriving in his foster home, he proved to be amenable to being a member of the pack when there was a stronger leader. His two weeks in his foster home have shown that he is the sweetest boy and instead of needing a muzzle is happy to give kisses on the nose.
Once you have established that you are the pack leader, Duncan will be your biggest protector. Like most of dachshunds, he will bark at anyone on the sidewalk near your place. Friends coming to visit need to be introduced quietly so that he can learn they are not a threat to you or him. He has been thriving in the quiet home of a single female who works from home.
At the same time, Duncan needs someone who has lots of energy for long walks and throwing balls for him to chase. He also loves swimming and fetching sticks in the water during the warmer months. He is used to wearing a harness and just needs someone at the other end of the leash who has the confidence to demand obedience.
Duncan is a Velcro hound who will follow you to the bathroom and if you are in bed or on the couch, he will be touching you. He is used to sleeping in bed with you and his preferred position is parallel to your side or back. If you are looking for a little man to join your quiet life, please consider whether you are able to meet Duncan‘s needs.
