My personality

My story

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

Buddy is a handsome Dachshund with a velvety black and tan coat. He's about 8 years old and weighs around 11lbs. He's neutered, heartworm negative, and up-to-date on vaccines and monthly preventatives.
Buddy is fostered in the greater Jacksonville, FL area. Check his profile highlights below! Read his full profile before applying to ensure you meet his requirements: https://www.fawnssmalldogrescue.org/adoptable-dogs/buddy

Are you looking for a best Buddy?! This Buddy is versatile, his favorite activities include:
- Long sniffy walks
- Cozy couch cuddles
- Doggie play time
- Napping like a pretzel
- Treats and meals

Buddy was used as a stud in a breeding turned hoarding situation. He does surprisingly well with humans and is great with similarly sized dogs. When it comes to cats, if they run he'll chase.

Buddy is doing well with house and potty training. He's happy to follow his foster sister outside to go potty in the yard, he'll wear a belly-band as a back up when his foster has errands. He often takes his time to go potty and may get distracted if he finds something to chase.

Buddy has good harness and leash skills. He adores long sniffy walks, to engage his keen Dachshund nose. The vet is very pleased with Buddy's size, we love a trim Dachshund with an athletic figure. This smart boy is learning to use doggie stairs and ramps.

Buddy has a typical Dachshund temperament. He's an excellent alert barker, you'll know when mail or packages arrive. Guests are heralded with barks and treated with wariness. That is until his foster sister, who adores people, gets more attention and love than he does. Buddy can't abide by this injustice and this helps him get over his suspicion of guests more quickly.

Buddy's fur-every family needs patient humans, ideally adults with breed experience who are home often. No shared walls for Buddy, he's too vocal for close neighbors. He'd like moderately active humans and at least one similarly sized playful dog sibling. He's fine with calm, dog-savvy cats who don't care to run. He's yard optional as he'll go potty while out on walks.

If you are the right fit, you will meet the dog during a home visit. If you have pets, we help facilitate an appropriate meet and greet.

4.

Sign Adoption Contract

Ideally at the end of the home visit you sign the adoption contract, provide your adoption donation, and your 7 day adoption trial starts.

Additional adoption info

We do our best to select the family and home that we feel is ideal based on the unique needs of each dog. Adopters must be 21 years or older.

As we are a foster-based organization our adoption radius is 150 miles from Jacksonville, FL.

Our adoption donations range between $175 to $450 depending on the age and medical expenses paid out for each dog while in rescue. All donations go back to our foster dogs and their care.

Fawn's does a veterinarian and reference check. Your application will be denied if the animals you own are not properly vaccinated, neutered and spayed, and up to date on their heartworm and other preventative medications.
