Bentley/Lump

Lump is a one-year-old black and tan smooth haired dachshund mix. He was rescued from the Houston streets after being abandoned when he was just two months old. We know that must have been a scary time for him because he still is tentative with strangers, both dogs and humans. Learning to trust will be an ongoing process for him. <br/><br/>In contrast to how shy he is with strangers, he adores his foster family and their dogs and tries to get the old dogs in his foster home to play. If that doesn't work, he zooms around the house or outside where he has a little route he runs. One of his favorite pastimes is chasing squirrels, lizards and birds in the backyard. This athletic pup would do well in an active household ideally with a yard and playful companion. <br/><br/>Another favorite activity of Lump's is playing with squeaky toys and chewing on his long-lasting collagen sticks, frozen bone marrow, or peanut butter-filled frozen Kongs. He sleeps in the bed with his foster parents, snuggles on the sofa, and takes long walks in the neighborhood and his favorite place, the Houston Arboretum. Lump is housetrained and crated when his foster family leaves the house to keep him from getting into "puppy trouble." Lump is a special dog and is looking for a home that will make him feel safe and loved.
