My story

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

Crystal came to DREAM from a local shelter where she was picked up as a stray. Hard to believe a girl this sweet has lost her home. She's got the sweetest eyes that just make us melt. We've been impressed by her disposition from the get go...and we sure are glad they called us to help as she was quite the mess upon arrival. She has recently been spayed and had some benign tumors removed from her stomach area. No more uncomfortable growths for this little girl. Crystal is also heartworm positive, which we are treating as well. We guess her age to be about 9 and she weighs ~13 lbs. Her foster mom reports that she's the best little traveler in the car, she loves to snuggle, thoroughly enjoys all people and other dogs, and she never seems to meet a stranger. She even likes the cat. She's taken to leash training very quickly and is even learning how to ring a bell to let them know when she has to go outside. (Her foster parents are the most amazing people.)

If you are interested in adopting Crystal, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to dreamhappytails.org/adoptform.shtml . Crystal 's adoption fee is $300. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Crystal 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.
