My story

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

To adopt see our web site at spokanewienerdogs.org and find the form on our To Adopt page. Thanks.

Ryker is a 3 year old male. We are checking to see if housebroke although we are working on crate training and doing well there. He is beyond smart so easy to train. He is also way more handsome than our photos.

So far he is very sweet and mellow and is quite happy and charming dude.

He is a bit scared and shy for the first week so Ryker will need someone with some patience and time to get him more socialized in his new home.

He came to us when his previous family had to move and could not take him to new housing, not because he did anything wrong.

Ryker is now neutered and healing up nicely so good to go to a new home. He also had his teeth cleaned, shots and worming so he had the full meal deal of vet care. We always send along that paperwork too so folks have it for their vets.

We do require a fenced yard in town and no kids with this boy please. He is a mooch and is a bit overweight so needs to stay on a diet. Thanks.

Our adoption fees vary depending on how much is spent on the dog to get them ready for adoption but start at $150 and up.

Please read all the details about our adoption process on our main web site at http://www.spokanewienerdogs.org on our To Adopt/Fee page before getting in touch with us. Many questions are already answered on our website. Thank you.

We have volunteer and adoption visiting here at 10 am daily with an appointment in advance. We do not maintain a retail location for our dog rescue so visitors are welcome, 3000+ visitors a year now, by making an appointment in advance. Closed Mondays.

More about this rescue

We were Dachshund breeders for 25 years until we started our rescue in 1991. All our dogs are personality guaranteed, we do test drives and take them back if not working out. They are all fixed, up to date on shots and worming, pretrained and we do warn folks about any personality glitches we find so they know what they are adopting from us.

We have adopted or help to adopt over 1,800+ dogs since 1991. We place on average 150+ dogs each year and placed 157 dogs in 2016 alone, a new record for us. But we turn away around 500+ each year so we do what we can to help the pet overpopulation by spaying and neutering all our adoptable pets before placement.

Please read our web site for our adoption contract, waiting list form and adoption policies before getting in touch. We are already answering 500+ emails a day with this rescue. Thank you.

Our dog rescue is located at the director's farm northwest of Spokane. There is no bus service here. Directions are given once an appointment is made in advance and once our pre-adoption paperwork is filled in so we can match dogs to their new families.
