Goldie (Sister Helen)

Goldie is a 5.5-year-old smooth red dachshund who is roughly 15-16 lbs. She arrived with her sister Helen, but had to be split up in foster care from her due to not having a foster home that could take two pups.<br/><br/>We will accept applications for both of them together or separately. However, Helen doesn't like other dogs aside from her sister, and they are not compatible with cats.<br/><br/>Helen's dental is in the middle of April, and her sister Goldie gets her dental on May 7th. This will be their first dental, so we do expect them to lose some teeth.<br/><br/><br/>Goldie is sensitive, sweet, and takes a while to feel comfortable. She walks well on a leash. She is 5.5 years old and is compatible with other small dogs. She had a bout of IVDD in 2025, but has since made a full recovery. She does have some separation anxiety, but we think this is due to having to be in a separate foster home from her sister.<br/><br/>Helen is silly, sweet, and enjoys walks.<br/><br/>To be considered for Helen or her sister, please apply on our website:<br/><br/>https://portlanddachshundrescue.org/adoptionform<br/><br/>Rosie's Criteria:<br/><br/>A home setting with a securely fenced backyard<br/>A home with no other dogs, or a home willing to adopt her sister Goldie, also<br/>A cat-free home<br/>Kids 10+ ok if small dog savvy and gentle
