My story

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

This adorable, long haired dapple piebald is Nicholas Nutcracker. Nicholas was found as a stray by a kind and caring Good Samaritan. She exhausted all efforts to find an owner but came up empty handed. Unable to keep this sweet 10lb. bundle of sweetness herself, she turned to DREAM for assistance.

Nicholas is about 3 years old and is a cheerful and happy Dachshund. He lets you know this because his tail is always wagging! Nicholas is going to need a home with a back yard and an active dog buddy, because he loves to be outside where he can run, explore and burn off his excess energy. He also will need a family where he won't be left for a long work day; maybe someone who works from home, or can come home for a long walk at lunchtime, etc. As much as he wants to be near you, he doesn't need to be held and cuddled all the time, because just having you in the same room with him is a good thing! He gets along great with people and dogs of all ages. He loves kids and is currently being fostered with some puppies, which he is very playful yet gentle with. He is inquisitive and he's one of those magical Dachshund climbers, who likes to be on the back of the couch, or jumping up into your desk chair. He doesn't let his short legs slow him down! Even though he is a busy boy, he is not destructive and has proven to be well behaved. He's great with a doggie door too. Nicholas is going to make an incredible addition to the right family!
