My story

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

This is little Ashty, full name Ashton! He’s a sweet 15lb, 6 yr old dachshund, shitzu, yorkie boy from North Pole, Alaska! He was born April 18th and is the most cuddly little dude that’s ever lived. He snuggles in bed and makes human noises and smiles with his teeth lol. He is very smart and routined. He has anxiety. Not when we leave the house, but in the car when we stop. He also gets anxious when in new places. He barks at knocks on the door, and in the last few years idk if it’s the moves we have done, but he has nipped multiple people and had more aggression towards them. The thing is, he’s not this way when boarded. The vet said it’s fixable. But it makes it hard for us to trust when our first baby comes in March. So we have chosen to rehome him, which is the worst feeling, but we can’t take risks with our baby. His barking and anxiousness makes it very hard. He is a sweetheart to everyone he knows and needs someone patient and loving who’s willing to work through his quirks
