I'm a typical, wiggly Doxie! I love to waddle around the yard and play with my toys. I'm a bit mouthy and sometimes give love nips a little harder than I should. I'm working on learning to be more gentle. For this reason, I would prefer a home with children older than 6 who are gentle and understand doggy behavior. I am house and leash trained, and I have a couple other Dachshund foster friends! I get along better with the female, but I'm not overly aggressive with the male (he's bigger than me!). I DO have some special needs. Firstly, I would like to be fed separately from my other fur siblings. I don't like to share! Secondly, I have very bad storm anxiety. Thunder Shirts help, but be prepared to help comfort me! Lastly, please don't leave me alone for long periods of time. I get very sad when my humans leave me alone for hours at a time!

All our dogs are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, receive monthly flea and heartworm preventative, and are micro-chipped with registration.
