Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ROCKET. Handsome black and tan neutered male dachshund needs a new home. Well loved, but time and money are short, and Rocco deserves more attention. Playful fellow who is more than happy to spend the full day fetching! Gets on well with other dogs. Travels well and loves his walks. Rocket will be three in July. He was attacked by a big aggressive dog and has a scar on his back from that encounter (not associated with any back problems). Rocket s a sweet loving boy; happy and healthy. He loves his big wire crate, especially when filled with blankets fresh out of the dryer. He is leash trained and loves to go for car rides. Rocket likes to play with older kids and is a real gentleman around female doxies. He also likes to cuddle and would be happiest sleeping with his human. Older, gentle kids OK. No cats.=====The adoption fee is $295, no exceptions. The fees include spay/neuter, rabies, dhpp, bordetella, pyrantel, advantage treatment, grooming including nails, as well as complete exam at our doxie vet. Each dog comes with all new doxie halter, new toys and blankets. All in all, an investment greater than the adoption fee. Please go to www.odr-inc.org. We have very strict adoption guidelines because we require an escape proof fenced yard and someone who is home most of the day. Kids over 10 are ok, but no cats less they've been raised with them, or other small prey animals (these are hunters). If our requirements sound like a good fit, please complete the questionnaire and email it to jrangan@teleport.com. ====== Please wait to call until we have your information. We're busy trying to find the best homes for all the wonderful dachshunds we have. The best way to get an answer is by email. We make every effort to respond within 24 hours.
