Dachshund

Johnny is a 7 year old adorable little dachshund. He was rescued from a shelter when it was discovered that he had a thyroid condition and would not be eligible for adoption. He is currently on an inexpensive thyroid medication 2 times a day. He LOVES getting his meds, because it means some cheese or hotdogs! Johnny has a very sweet personality. He also loves to run around a play in his fenced in backyard. He uses a doggie door and is house and crate trained. Johnny has gotten along great with all the other dogs in his foster home as well as the toddler who lives there. He is just precious. He will need to have his thyroid monitored a couple times a year to be sure that his medications are at the right dosage. This consists of a simple T-4 blood test to determine his thyroid levels. Johnny's adoption fee is $125, which is a little lower than normal, to help offset your bloodwork expenses.

All UnderDogs are spayed/neutered, heartworm checked, microchipped, up to date on vaccines and heartworm/flea/tick preventatives. For consideration for one or more dogs, we require that an on-line application is filled out. Go to www.UnderDog.Petfinder.com for our application. Sorry, we do not adopt outside of Florida. Applicants are subject to a home visit, and veterinary references will be checked. Please include a vet reference (including phone number) when applying online.

Our application process:

FIRST, an application must be approved for adoption from our rescue.

SECOND, we determine whether the dog that has been applied for is a "good match" for the household that wants to adopt him/her. We take into consideration the dog's activity level, compatibility with other members of the household (human and other pets), etc.

If your application has been approved, but the dog you applied for is no longer available, please take the time and look over our adoptable dogs again. We will make every effort to find the right dog for an approved applicant.

We hope you agree and understand that our goal to find the best forever home is our #1 priority!
