None of it phases him!<br/><br/>He needs to lose a bit of additional weight, and while he struggles with his diet and will try to eat other dogs’ food if you don’t watch him, he thoroughly enjoys his exercise and is a very easy walking companion. He doesn’t pull on his leash, and he’s very patient while you’re putting his harness and jacket on.<br/><br/>Jack’s working on initial meetings with new people and dogs, and needs supervision, but generally is cool with others after getting to know them. Jack recently had a number of teeth pulled and the rest of them cleaned, and he has a tumor on his liver that does not seem to be affecting his quality of life or health. He takes medication for the growth on his liver that is administered once a day. He is otherwise in good health.<br/><br/>If you would like to talk to us about adopting Jack, please fill out an adoption application at: https://rockymountaindachshundrescue.com/adoption-application/<br/><br/>Jack is being fostered in Colorado.<br/><br/>Rocky Mountain Dachshund Rescue (RMDR) has foster families in Colorado, Nevada, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming. Please check the dogs' location before your apply to adopt them. You will need to pick them up. RMDR DOES NOT TRANSPORT THE DOGS TO YOU or transport them across state lines.<br/><br/>The Colorado Department of Agriculture requires that all dogs entering PACFA-licensed facilities have a Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI) issued by an accredited veterinarian within 30 days of entry. Dogs over three months of age must also have proof of a current rabies vaccination, including the vaccination date, manufacturer, and serial number listed on the CVI. Puppies must receive parvovirus and distemper vaccinations at least 14 days before entry.<br/><br/>These PACFA requirements may affect the adoption fee. For questions, please email us at contact@rmdr.org.<br/><br/>At RMDR, adoptions are not first-come, first-served—we carefully place each dog in the home that best fits their needs. Applications are usually reviewed within 48 hours. Every RMDR dog is spayed/neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations.<br/><br/>If you’d like to be considered, please start our online adoption application here: https://rockymountaindachshundrescue.com/adopt

Meet Jack (being fostered in Denver, Colorado) 12 years young & still running on full enthusiasm

Some dogs slow down with age. Jack never got that memo.

Morning:
Wakes up and immediately races outside — because outside is the best place.

The grand return:
Runs back inside to greet you with a happy smile and a full-body wiggle. Every single time.

Mealtime supervisor:
Runs to watch you prepare his food, just in case you need moral support (or drop something).

Your shadow:
Wherever you go, Jack goes. He's not following you — he's adventuring alongside you.

Always.
He just wants to be where you are. That's his whole world.

Jack has lived 12 years with nothing but love to give. He's not looking for a home — he's looking for his person. Could that be you?

Much of Jack’s history is unknown, but frankly, it doesn’t really matter because he is the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet. All of the thin
