My story

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

***ADOPTION PENDING***
Introducing Beowolf! With such a big name for a little dog, he responds to Beo (BAY-oh).

Beo was an owner surrender who was loved by his dad (and grandma) for the past 8 years, but as their family grew, Beo couldn't stay (for NO fault of his own).

Beo came to CCDR right before the holidays and his first few days were busy with an initial vet checkup and then he had a dental cleaning two days later. We don't believe that Beo ever had his teeth professionally cleaned, so he had a lot of buildup on his teeth, and four of his bottom front incisors were pulled since they were already loose. Beo did very well during his two vet visits and he was friendly with every person and dog he met along the way.

Beo was described to us as being "affectionate, house and crate trained... great with other dogs, children and strangers" and he is living up to that description. He is quiet and polite and has a cute little whine that he uses to ask for something.

Beo was previously an only dog, but he’s been getting along very well with his three new foster siblings. We also introduced him to cats, and he showed very little interest in them. He is such a ‘live and let live’ little fella!

Since Beo was previously accustomed to high-rise apartment living, he is really enjoying being off-leash in his foster family's fenced yard. He likes exploring and prancing around and enjoys running with a tennis ball (he needs to work on the fetch and bring back part).

Beo likes lots of attention and wants to always be with his person and will follow you everywhere. He gets a little antsy, at first, in the car and alone in his crate, but he does settle in and enjoys the view or takes a nap.

We're told that Beo is a mix. We're not sure if some Dachshund or Terrier might be part of this little (14-pound) Chihuahua's DNA, but whatever the composure of his genetics, he sure is adorable and well-behaved! In fact, his foster family says that “Beo is the best-behaved foster dog that we’ve ever had!”

Beo will certainly be a devoted companion to an individual or small family. He’ll most likely do best in a home as an only dog, where he’ll receive endless attention, or with one other dog who will pal around and play with him. Beo is being fostered in York, PA and his current veterinarian is in Ellicott City, MD. Please apply if you live local enough for Beo to join us when we conduct your home visit.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Step one: As a potential adopter (you must be 21 years old or older to adopt from CCDR) you will have to fill out an application to be processed. If you are responding to a dog that is currently available there is a place to note the dog's name on the application and the application will be forwarded to the representative that has that foster dog. If you do not see a dog that you are currently interested in, you can complete an application to "go on file" and the representative closest to you will process it. This way, when a dog comes into the system that does interest you, you have completed all of the necessary steps and your adoption process will be expedited.

Step two: Once the application is in process you will then be contacted by the representative handling your application and they will explain the adoption procedure. This will include checking your references as well as doing a home visit. We do reference checks and home visits so we can determine whether the adoptive family is a responsible home. It gives us a chance to meet you and the family, plus we are able to make sure your home will be a safe and a loving home for one of our dogs. Along with the reference check and home visit it is important for our adopters to understand the importance of spaying and neutering. Please review our spay/neuter policy so you will understand why we must be thorough and selective in our approvals of adoptive homes. CCDR's spay/neuter policy does not allow us to adopt to families who have unaltered cats and dogs unless the dog or cat has a medical condition that can be verified with the veterinarian, a pup too young to neuter or a dog that is actively being shown for its championship. Unless the dog has obtained its AKC championship we cannot condone breeding but do not have an issue with it if the dog has gained its championship, has proven to be a proper representative of the standard and the person will be breeding the dog to "better the breed." If you are breeding and are not actively showing your dog or have not obtained its championship, we must deny you a rescue dachshund. To download our statement, click here.

Step three: If you are approved, you and your representative will make arrangements to receive your dog. In the case of long distance travel the adoptive home is expected to make arrangements for transport by offering to drive to the location where the dog is or make arrangements to get the dog to them at the adopter's expense. (Please make sure the dog you are adopting is the dog you feel will suit your family. The foster home will tell you everything they can tell you about the dog, its personality and its temperament so please make sure you are confident this is the dog for you.) Please ask the representative questions to ensure this is a good choice because, should you decide the dog you adopted is not working out in your household, you will be responsible for getting the dog back to the CCDR representative. The adopter will absorb all costs it takes to return the dog to the original representative and make arrangements to get the dog there. Volunteers within CCDR, as well as other rescue groups, try to help by offering transports but with the cost of travel now, volunteers cannot absorb the cost of gas to transport a dog for free, therefore the adopter will be expected to pay the person(s) the cost of gas if the adopter is having the dog transported to them. In the case of a volunteer transport, the representative will keep you abreast of what the travel arrangements are and the transport cost.

Step four: When you receive your dog we require you sign the contract and pay the adoption fee in full. We only accept check or Money Order so please do not give your representative cash. Your representative will give you the items and information that goes with the dog you are adopting. The dog is now yours and you will have 1 week as a trial period from the time you receive your dog. If, within that one week time frame you find the dog is not working out in your household, please contact your representative and make arrangements with your representative to return the dog. If this is done within the first week you will receive a full refund. If you decide to return the dog after the week's trial, per the contract you signed, you must return it to CCDR. The adopter will be responsible for transportation back to the representative they initially worked with or the representative will locate a representative close to the adopter. At no time may you give the dog away or take the dog to the shelter.
