Cole Dachshund & Terrier Mix Claremont, CA

Cole

That’s Cole. Talk about Mister Versatility: you want to go for a walk? Show him his leash and he’s like a cork ready to spring out of a bottle of Champagne. Prefer to lie on the couch and watch a movie? Then what he wants most is to chill with you and cuddle. Cole is a dog who wants to please. He is playful, gentle with other dogs, not a barker (though he will alert you to anyone coming up the garden path). He’s good with cats, too (he gets it that cats rule the world). He is house trained, neutered, up to date on all vaccinations and ready for his forever home where he will be appreciated for his many qualities. He knows ’sit’, ‘stay’, 'shake hands’ and more. He’s good on a leash, though he does tend to want to stop at every tree to read his p-mail.

Life has dealt him a rough hand lately and he’s had many changes to negotiate. None of them his fault. He is looking for his forever home where he can count on stability, companionship, daily walks and LOTS of love. His favorite thing is to be close to his human. He will reward you with loyalty and a lot of fun.

Cole is around 20 pounds and about seven years old. He enjoys walking and playing tug. He’s likes rides in the car, especially if he can ride shotgun. If you want to know more about Cole, you can speak to his current foster.
