My story

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

Rufus is in need of a foster home --- we thought we had one lined up for him -- but the home found a dog to adopt so will not be able to foster him. Please email us if you'd like to foster him or adopt him --- nice loving boy!!! ~~~~ DogworksOhio@aol.com ~~~~ ... Rufus is a 6-7 year old Blue Merle Dachshund boy. Happy, friendly little guy. We found him in an animal control frightened, not knowing what was happening or where he was. Obviously someone's pet - Rufus is slightly overweight, yet in good health. Still a small active boy, he does like to wander outside, sniff and check things out. Does well with most dogs, we do not know about cats. Due to age - we suggest quieter home. Very lovable, affectionate and somewhat submissive boy. Very bonding and can be protective & possessive of the person he bonds with.. Crate trained, housebroke and walks fair on leash. Also seems to travel well. Neutered, vaccines up to date, heartworm negative and monthly prevention started. Also micro-chipped. Great disposition! Rufus is ready for a quiet home to share love and affection! Adoption fee $175.
