Ombre is a sweet little Dachshund puppy born in November 2025 with all the charm and spunk the breed is known for. Like many Dachshunds, he has a big personality packed into a small body and isn’t afraid to show it! Ombre absolutely loves to play with his foster fur sister, and the two often turn the house and yard into their own little racetrack as they zoom around together. With his tiny legs working overtime, he does his very best to keep up with every turn and twist of their playful tornado.
When playtime winds down, Ombre is just as happy being a cuddle bug. Dachshunds are famously loyal little companions, and Ombre is no exception—he loves being close to his person and soaking up every bit of attention he can get. One of his favorite parts of the day is story time with his foster sister, where he snuggles in close to make sure he doesn’t miss a single word of his bedtime story.
Dachshunds are known for being affectionate, clever, and full of personality. They were originally bred to be brave little hunters, which means they are curious, playful, and love being part of the action in their home. Ombre embodies all of those wonderful traits and thrives when he has companionship and fun activities to keep him engaged.
Ombre was recently treated for a UTI and, if needed, will go home with any remaining medication to complete his treatment. We are seeking a home for him that has a playmate—either children or a young playful dog—to help keep him busy, happy, and well socialized.
His adoption fee is $550. Ombre is current on vaccines, microchipped, and on monthly flea and heartworm prevention. He has not been neutered as we do not encourage neutering before 6 months of age. Leia’s Hope will provide a credit to the adopter’s veterinarian to help with the cost of his neuter.
Leia’s Hope is a volunteer-run, foster-based rescue. Applications can take 7–10 business days to process, so please be patient. We only perform meet and greets with an approved application. Meet and greets are done at our location and all family members, including dogs, must attend.
We do not provide transportation or allow our dogs to ride cargo if flying. Puppies are a 15+ year commitment and adopters must be prepared to care for Ombre for his entire lifetime.
