My story

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

LINUS. Two year old, sweetheart of a neutered male dachshund mix. Just look at his face! His owner moved away, and now Linus needs a new forever home. Prefers to be with a single or couple as children make him nervous. No cats please. Linus loves to go on walks and play with his toys! His favorite toy right now is his sock monkey. He drags it around everywhere with him, and tries to play tug of war with the other dogs with it. Linus also loves to cuddle. He will spend hours cuddled in someone's lap, and once he falls into a deep sleep he begins to snore. It is adorable!

Based on 30 years of experience with rescue doxies, we have pretty strict criteria. Do you work from home/stay at home/work part time? Have a securely fenced yard? We do not place same sex in a home and children need to be 10 or older (some exceptions IF the dog is a puppy or the child has been raised with a doxie). We prefer no smokers and a home with no other small animals (ferrets, hamsters, etc) Cats are on a case by case basis depending on the dog. Remember these are rescues, many were surrendered because of these issues. All our dogs are fully vetted, including all shots, wormer & flea protection, nails trimmed, the works. They'll come with a basket of goodies, food, toys and a custom made harness. The adoption fee is $350, no exceptions as this covers the cost to rescue them, vet them and take care of them while in our rescue. It also helps towards the care of other doxies that come with huge vet or dental bills or need extensive behavioral training. Linus is waiting to meet you. Can you give him a happy, carefree life again? If interested, please complete the adoption questionnaire at www.odr-inc.org and email it to: jrangan@teleport.com - the adoption committee will be in touch with you within 48 hours so please be patient as we are solely volunteer run.
