Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Courtesy Listing! Please contact Southern California Dachshund Relief at: Dena@SCDR.org and not the rescue group connected to this page. The best (and preferred) method of contact for quick response is by way of e-mail. Please read the dogs’ entire bio before contacting rescue.
Kendall is an adorable little 10-month-old black and tan, dapple Dorkie, 13 lbs., born around January 5, 2014. (A Dorkie is a Dachshund/Yorkshire terrier mix.) She is what is called a “designer dog”, super cute and look like a wirehair dachshund with Yorkie coloring. She has the best features of both breeds. Kendall is always smiling and is very social.
Kendall was dropped off at a pet supply/grooming shop along with her brother, and the people never came back for them. After holding on to them for several weeks trying to locate the owner, the shopkeeper contacted SCDR in hopes we could find a home for them.
Kendall has been spayed, received all her shots, and is now micro-chipped. She is very well socialized, crate-trained, doing fabulous on her house training too. She still needs work on leash, but she is very young and very smart.
Because she is still young, she can be trained to get along well with cats and other small pets. Ideal applicants will need the following qualifications:
• Someone at home most of the day, stay-at-home moms or folks who work from home.
• Previous wirehaired dachshund experience is a plus, but not essential.
• Another small dog for play and companionship.
• A very secure INDOOR place for the puppy to be when no one is at home.
• Applicants must be between 30 and 65 years of age.
• No infants or toddlers, please, but we will consider families with children over 8 years old.
•
Do you live in a two-story home? Kendall would be perfect for your family. Her legs are slightly taller than the average dachshund’s making going up and down stairs a non-issue.
If you are interested in Kendall, please fill out an adoption application and email Dena at Dena@SCDR.org or call 562-694-6868.
