Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Travis! He is about a year old, easy going guy who looks to be a Spaniel/Dachshund mix. He has warm amber eyes and a super soft black coat with a little brown and copper mixed in for interest. He is light on his feet, weighing only 19 lbs. Travis came to us from a dreadful shelter in rural TN where a dog's only hope to live, is when a rescue is able to save him. Poor Travis spent nearly a month in that awful place before we were able to free him, and he has never looked back. Travis is a submissive boy, not a mean bone in his body. He gets along great with the other foster dogs in his house. He is playful and inquisitive without being obnoxious and loves to cuddle and be petted without being too needy. This sweet boy sleeps in a crate at night in the bedroom and doesn't make a peep until it's time to get up in the morning. He is working on his house training and is doing well. Travis does have an energetic side to him and has the very unique ability to hop almost straight up in the air off all 4 feet. He mostly does this when he first starts out for a walk on the leash. Maybe it's his warm-up? Once he gets going for a minute or two, Travis walks just fine! We think he could make a great running or walking companion and would enjoy taking some hikes in the woods or jogs in the park with you. And he would be a great family dog, gentle with children but always up for a game of fetch or tag in the back yard. When it's quiet time, Travis would be just as happy curled up with you by the fire as you are reading or watching a movie. Could this all-around wonderful little dog be for you?
