Story

Meet Candy! 🍬 Age: 1.5 years • Weight: 14 lbs • Breed: Dachshund / Chi mix Candy may be shy at first, but once she settles in, she’s a whole vibe! Her coloring comes from her dachshund side, while her long legs are pure Chi energy. She has a big, loving personality, is playful, and bonds hard with her people. She loves other dogs, and a home with another dog her size and a secure fenced yard is required — a companion her size will help her feel confident and playful. Cute Quirk: Candy is crazy about her tennis balls and will play with them by herself, running and hopping like a tiny deer. 🐾 Not-So-Great Habits: She’s still working on leash training and may bark or howl when someone comes home. She jumps when excited but is learning to calm down. Training Snapshot: Leash Manners: Work in progress; can be shy and may hide in her crate during harness time. House Trained: Yes! No accidents. Crate Trained: Yes, very good — her crate is her safe space. Dog Door Trained: Yes! She knows exactly how to use it. Door Dasher: Will try to be first out, but no other attempts to escape. Jumper: Excited, but manageable with guidance. Car Manners: Nervous, but does well in a travel crate. Motivation: Food, toys, praise — she loves all rewards! Personality & Best Home: Candy is shy with new people and may hide or bark at first. She needs a patient family willing to give her time to feel safe. A home with another dog her size and a secure fenced yard is required. Once she settles in, Candy is playful, affectionate, and the happiest girl you could imagine. She loves snuggling, playing, and following her person everywhere — she’s a total shadow once she trusts you. 💗 Requirements: 🐾 Another dog in the home (required!) 🐾 Securely fenced yard (required!) 🐾 Patient family to give her time and love 🐾 Adoption Info: All of our animals are fully vetted, which includes spay/neuter, up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested and treated if necessary, up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipped prior to adoption.

Story

🐾 BISCUIT 🐾 Small dog. Big couch energy. Age: 4 years Weight: 17 lbs Breed: Dachshund Mix 💬 The Vibe Biscuit is a quiet, sensitive soul who thrives in calm, predictable environments. He’s not flashy or demanding — he just wants a soft place to land and someone who understands that confidence comes with time. 🛋️ Biscuit’s Signature Move Claiming the couch like he pays rent. Cozy spots are his love language. 🧠 What Biscuit Is Learning Responds to “crate” / “kennel” Appears to be house trained Building confidence with handling, routines, and new experiences 🐕 Day-to-Day Details Leash: ❌ Very fearful — not leash-ready yet Energy Level: 💤 Low Motivation: 🍗 Food House Training: ✅ Believed to be house trained Crate: ⚖️ Tolerates it (goes in when asked, but still nervous) 🐶 Dog & People Notes With Dogs: Biscuit loves other dogs and is very much the lowest on the totem pole. He shows affection through enthusiastic face licking, which not all dogs appreciate. Because of this, he would do best with a dog tolerant of his overly friendly style. Once comfortable, we believe he would enjoy playing with a dog his own size. He’s still learning canine social cues and isn’t quite fluent in “dude, get outta my face.” With New People: Fine overall, but slow to approach. Gentle introductions work best. 🚪 Manners Check Door Dasher: ⚠️ Could be if given the chance Jumping: ⚠️ Occasionally when excited Counter Surfing: ❌ No — but very curious about your food 🚗 On the Road Car rides make him nervous. He seeks comfort by sitting in a lap. 🏡 Best Home Match A low-chaos, quieter home with patient humans who understand shy dogs. Biscuit would do best where routines are consistent and expectations are gentle. 🚧 Fence Requirement Secure physical fence required — leash walks are not his comfort zone right now. 🐾 Adoption Info: All of our animals are fully vetted, which includes spay/neuter, up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested and treated if necessary, up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipped prior to adoption. Our requirements are non-negotiable and include the following: All current pets in the home must be spayed or neutered if over 6 months of age, unless there is a documented medical exemption with veterinary confirmation.

Story

Oscar is basically Mr. Perfect, in my opinion. He is the whole package... potty trained, well behaved, sweet as sugar, VERY playful, energetic, crate trained, house trained, handsome, loving and adorable, snuggly, you name it, this guy has it all wrapped up in a lowrider body. I'm having a hard time even thinking of letting him go to somebody else so you have to be pretty perfect, like him, for me to approve your application. A couple of German Shepherds tried to eat his head, so he looks like Stripe from the show The Gremlins, with his scars on his poor head and he doesn't like large dogs because of it. He is also afraid of cats and will bark at them. He needs a buddy his size (He's about 20 lb) to rough house and play with, to run around with in a securely fence yard and in the house where they can have squeaky toys and bones. He would love someone home most of the time, but he is perfectly content in a plastic crate, he prefers that to a metal one and will not settle in a dog bed at night, he will go to the plastic crate instead. I've taught him to wait at the top of the stairs and the bottom of the stairs until I have ascended or descended and then he can do the same but only after me. I've also taught him to ring the bell to go out and he absolutely loves to be outside, just looking around. When he lets you know he needs to go outside to potty, you best let him out right then! He would LOVE to have a doggie door and a very secure fenced yard to go out into with a doggie friend to romp and play with!I'm teaching him to sit and wait when I open a door before he goes outside, for safety reasons.He's great on a leash and loves to ride in a car, safely buckled into his harness. **He is absolutely terrified of fireworks and loud noises outside** so he has to have melatonin (but he can't physically eat gummies lol) or trazodone when there are going to be fireworks or very loud noises!!!He is neutered, microchipped, has had his rabies, Bordetella, distempor-parvo booster, dewormed, heartworm negative and unprevention. Apply for this perfect gentleman online at MadisonARF.orgHis adoption fee is $200

Story

Archie is a purebred tri merle dachshund, around 9 years old. Archie is crate trained but not house trained. He is extremely friendly and loves pets and belly rubs from all. Great with kids and other dogs. Loves his toys and chasing tennis balls. Loves to get outside and run. Loves giving kisses and snuggling at all times. Best napping buddy. Overall a fantastic dog and would be a great addition to any home. I love him dearly but unfortunately my schedule no longer gives him the attention/time he requires and deserves.
