My story

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

Animal Profile: Buffalo is an estimated 6 month-old, 20-ish pound male Dachshund mix who was surrendered to the Caddo Parish shelter along with his two siblings, who have since been rescued. 

Foster Update: Buffalo definitely has puppy energy! He loves chews, toys and is happy to entertain himself. Buffalo has an adventurous spirit in the yard and he’s quickly learning what’s his and what’s not in true puppy style. He is house trained and he sleeps beautifully through the night in his crate. He will actually put himself in his crate once he is tuckered out from playing. He is a short little fella but he is full steam ahead and he has no problem keeping up with his furry foster siblings in a game of chase. Buffalo’s ideal day is play, nap, eat, repeat! He is really good at following cues from the other dogs in the house so he would do great in a home with another dog or two that like to play and can teach him the ropes, but it’s not required for him. Buffalo will do best with a family with prior dog experience and no really young children because he is slow to warm up to new people but he is getting braver day by day as his fosters help him see that the PNW is not such a scary place and are slowly introducing him to the neighborhood and new adventures. 

Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, microchip with registration, and health certificate. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization. All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs in our rescue.
