My story

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

Piper
11 year old female Dachshund/Chihuahua mix
12 lbs.
Fully vetted

Do not let this girl's age fool you! For her age, Piper has the spunk of a young dog and is full of sass. She was rescued from a local shelter after her owner refused to reclaim her. She has been fully vetted which includes a dental. She only has 7 teeth, but that does not stop her from eating anything.

Piper seems eager to please and likes following other dogs her size around. She's aptly earned the name wiggle butt for wagging her tail and whole body constantly. She does not meet a stranger and adores everyone and everything.

With regular trips outside, it does seem Piper is house trained. She walks well on a leash. However, since she is incredibly vocal, we will not adopt her to someone in an apartment or condo situation since she has to tell her person about her entire life. It would be great if she went to a home where someone is home most of the time since she is very much a velcro girl and wants to be near people at all times. Piper adores sleeping under blankets and cuddling near her person. She does not seem to know what toys are but is more than ready for treat time.

If you are looking for a spunky older girl who seems to have many years left in her, please complete an adoption application at http://tinyurl.com/mpmrapp
