My story

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

Hello my name is Nova and I am a 2-3 year old female dachshund mix. I weigh about 10.5 lbs and playing with my toys makes me so very happy. The vet tells me that I have heartworms because someone failed to give me any prevention. But not to worry - I can still go to my forever home because DREAM began my treatment right away and will supply my new family with all the meds to finish this at my new home. It's super easy - just one pill with each meal. Did I mention I like to eat twice a day? I'm a good eater too. I can gobble down all my food.

Right away my foster mom could tell I am very sweet and friendly. I am in love with anything that squeaks. I hope you are ready to give your arm a workout because if it squeaks, I will play fetch all day long, so keep throwing those toys. I hit it off great with my foster moms dogs as soon as I walked in the door. I took my no-more-puppies pledge a couple weeks ago - YAY - those lil' boogers can be hard work! I am your typical dachshund who loves to sleep in your lap, give you kisses, and go all the way under the covers in the bed to sleep at night. If you would love to make me part of your family, please fill out the online application - see link below.

If you are interested in adopting Nova, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to dreamhappytails.org/adoptform.shtml. Nova 's adoption fee is $375. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Nova 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.
