Story
Arriving soon:Wally & Trudy were surrendered to the shelter through no fault of their own when their family had to move to a place that did not welcome dogs. They are a bonded sibling pair who are hoping to be adopted into the same home, having spent their whole nearly-6-year-old lives together. Their father was a Beagle and their mom was a Shih Tzu/Dachshund mix. Both dogs weigh approximately 30 lbs. They are house trained, friendly with adults & kids as well as other dogs, and know some basic commands. They are well behaved when left alone unsupervised at home. True to their Dachshund heritage, they like to dig holes in the yard, and their Beagle heritage shines through as well, as they love to chase wildlife and will also chase cats. While they dislike nail trims, they love exploring outdoors, playing fetch with a ball or toy, enjoy a good chew bone, love to be couch potatoes, and are definitely lap dogs. If you have room in your heart and home for these two sweethearts, they can’t wait to meet you!Approved applicants are welcome to participate in our popular Slumber Party program and take a dog home for up to 2 weeks to make sure he/she is a great fit. *If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application at www.caninerescue.org. *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again when you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email us at adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day.We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopters must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in.*PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide. If they are incorrect, we will not be able to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone, so advise your references that there may be an unknown or private number calling them. Thank you!
