Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Truman is a dapple dachshund. We adopted Truman out when he was 2 yrs old, and upon the birth of their baby, the family decided to return him!!! He is approx 8 yrs old and 14 lbs. Truman is a great little dog. He is quiet and well behaved. He gets along with the other dogs, but prefers the mellow ones as he is an adult! He loves people, is house trained, does well on a leash and would do great in an all adult home, or one with older children. Truman has always lived in a one story home and does not know how to use stairs, which is probably good as too many dachshunds hurt their backs if they fall down. He does prefer to sleep on the couch or his doggie bed - he likes his comfort!!
The total adoption donation of $475 and includes the required interstate health certificate and transport , spay/neuter, shots including rabies, bordatella, parvo, lepto, distemper and canine influenza, and micro chip with a lifetime pre paid registration. The total amount is payable to Shaggy Dog Rescue which is a 501c3. .
Just as a note, if you are in Massachusetts and are adopting directly from Texas rather than from a local foster, there are new quarantine laws in effect. All rescues must be quarantined 48 hours at a state run facility, and in addition, a second interstate health certificate is required to be issued by a Massachusetts vet. This new law adds an additional cost of $125.
