Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Captain!
Captain is a very dapper young fella that is looking for his PERFECT home! He needs a strong owner that is willing to work with his strong, Dachshund personality. Captain is very smart; he knows how to sit, is housebroken, and crate trained. He is extremely affectionate, and wants to be the center of your attention. His favorite place to hang, is on the back of the couch looking out the window.
Captain may not have been properly socialized as a young pup, so he does have some dominance related issues. He can seem "aggressive" when meeting new animals and people. But, with proper introductions and patience he warms up and is fine. He currently resides with his foster mom and dad, and 3 fur siblings that he gets along with (small-medium size).
Captain would prefer a calm home, with not a lot of interruptions to his normal routines.
