My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I'm Wellington. Call me Welly for short! I am very young; almost a year old. I would be perfect for a family looking to teach me and train me. I have had no formal training but am ready to love anyone who will give me the chance. I am a quick learner. I have been with my foster family a little over a month and have already learned to sit and chase a ball. I pee when I get really excited but am working on keeping it all outside. They say I am controlling it a lot better and will only improve.

If you ever wanna cuddle or play then just give me a chance. I am waiting for a forever home to love and teach me. I am awesome with kids and other dogs. I love to play with toys all day long. Also, I placed first in my heat at the GA Dachshund Races! My foster mom is so proud of me and I hope you will be too!

If you are interested in adopting Wellington, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to dreamhappytails.org/adoptform.shtml. Wellington 's adoption fee is $375. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Wellington will go to his/her new home microchipped, altered, heartworm tested, and up to date on vaccinations. Most dogs' veterinary expenses are greater than our adoption fees.

DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group, and we focus on the Atlanta, North Georgia and Savannah area. Because we are all volunteers, we can consider applications only within an hour of these areas. DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back.
