Description: Rusty is a very sweet, smooth coated, and quiet miniature dachshund. He was rescued from the West Virginia puppy mill. He is very happy trotting around the house or yard. Rusty is a young dog with an old soul, spending most of his time napping on his bed or in your lap. He has never shown any signs of aggression and doesn't react to children, cats and other dogs. Rusty would do well in a home where he will be given patience, and treated very gently. He is not able to climb stairs well and is very wobbly on his feet, so he does fall over from time to time. Rusty does have diminished eyesight, and while not completely blind, he may end up that way at some point down the road. With his vision and balance problems, he will require extra love and attention. He is currently struggling with housebreaking, but is taking to crate training and puppy pads.
