My story

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

Meet Rusty! Rusty is a tiny 10 pound, 9 year old dachshund. We believe one of Rusty’s parent’s was wire hair dachshund and the other other parent was a long hair dachshund giving him his unique coat!

Rusty is is housetrained but like all dachshunds he will need to be confident in his environment to have good potty habits. All rescue dogs go thru a period of adjustment so understanding and patience is important. Rusty is also crate trained.

Rusty gets along with everyone! He enjoys the company of other dogs, kitties, and people of all ages. Rusty would like a home where he could be a lap dog and spend lots of cuddle time.

Rusty is such good boy! When his foster mom tells him that it is bed time he jumps right up and runs to his crate to go to sleep for the night. He is happy and easy going and adjusts quickly to new situations and surroundings.

Rusty appears to have some allergies and licks his feet from time to time. He needs a good quality food and his new family to be careful with his diet.

Rusty is a fun loving guy! He can break the speed of light when it comes to beating you in to sit in the chair with you especially if there is a blanket involved. He does a very cute happy dance when it comes to treats and meal time.

Rusty needs a secure yard as he is very curious about any gaps or holes where he might find new adventures. His foster mom watches him closely in his foster home in Alabama.

Rusty is waiting for his own special loving home. Is it with you?
