  Meet Sombra! ❤️ A Lovely Little Dachshund Terrier Mix Ready for Her Next Chapter! Breed: Dachshund Terrier Mix Gender: Female DOB: 10/30/2019 Age: 7 Years Weight: 16 lbs Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Kids ✔️ | Cats: Unknown Medical: Spay and Vaccination Status Not Confirmed Personality: Individual Temperament Still Being Evaluated ❤️ Personality & Breed Information Meet Sombra, a beautiful 7-year-old Dachshund Terrier mix weighing just 16 pounds! This lovely little lady is searching for a forever family who will give her the comfort, companionship, and stability she deserves. At seven years old, Sombra has moved beyond the demanding puppy stages, making her a wonderful candidate for someone interested in adopting an adult dog. Her individual personality is still being evaluated, but she has the opportunity to build a loving bond with a family who will give her time to settle in. About the Dachshund Terrier Mix Dachshunds and Terriers are known for their intelligence, determination, loyalty, and curious personalities. Originally bred as working dogs, both breeds can have strong instincts to explore, investigate interesting scents, and engage with their surroundings. As a Dachshund Terrier mix, Sombra may display some of these characteristics: Loyal and Affectionate: Many develop strong attachments to their families. Intelligent and Curious: They often enjoy exploring, scent games, and interactive activities. Independent: Their determined personalities benefit from patient, consistent guidance. Playful: Even mature adults may enjoy toys, games, and daily adventures. Alert: They can be observant and attentive to their surroundings. Because Sombra is a mixed breed, her individual temperament and energy level may vary from these general characteristics. At 16 pounds, Sombra is a manageable size for many households. Her ideal home will provide appropriate exercise, companionship, and a comfortable environment where she can feel secure. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Although Sombra is seven years old, adopters should not assume she is fully house-trained or familiar with household routines. Rescue dogs may arrive with basic training at best. Her future family should be prepared to reinforce house training, leash manners, basic commands, and appropriate household behavior using positive reinforcement. Dachshund Terrier mixes often benefit from daily walks, scent-based activities, and mental enrichment. Exercise should be adjusted to Sombra's individual energy level and physical condition. Sombra is considered suitable for homes with dogs and children, with proper introductions and supervision. Her compatibility with cats is unknown. Understanding the 3-3-3 Rule Every rescue dog needs time to adjust: 3 Days: Decompress and begin feeling safe. 3 Weeks: Learn household routines and build confidence. 3 Months: Develop trust and become more comfortable in the family. These are guidelines, not deadlines. Patience, consistency, and a predictable routine will help Sombra settle into her new home. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Sombra's current spay and vaccination status have not been confirmed. Her adopter should review her medical records and arrange any necessary follow-up care. Dachshund Terrier Health Considerations Because of her breed mix and age, Sombra's future family should be aware of several potential health considerations: Back and Spinal Health: Dachshunds are predisposed to intervertebral disc disease (IVDD). If Sombra has inherited a longer back, limiting repetitive jumping and maintaining a healthy weight may help protect her spine. Joint Health: Smaller dogs may develop kneecap instability or age-related joint discomfort. Dental Care: Regular tooth brushing and veterinary dental examinations are important. Weight Management: Maintaining a healthy body condition supports mobility and overall health. Age-Appropriate Care: As Sombra gets older, regular wellness examinations can help identify changes in mobility, vision, and general health. These are potential breed-related concerns, not diagnosed conditions in Sombra. Her future family should provide nutritious food, routine veterinary care, parasite prevention, grooming, appropriate exercise, and a safe, comfortable home. Adopting Sombra means committing to her well-being throughout her adult and senior years, including any changing medical or physical needs. Adoption Information Interested in giving Sombra a forever home? Apply to Adopt: https://www.ozzieandfriendsrescue.org/adoptions Ozzie and Friends Rescue is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to rescuing dogs and helping them find loving, permanent homes. We coordinate safe transportation for approved adopters throughout the United States. Our adoption process helps match each dog with a family prepared to provide the care, patience, and lifelong commitment they deserve. Sombra is a lovely little lady with so much life still ahead of her! At seven years old, she deserves the chance to enjoy a home filled with security, companionship, and love. Adult rescue dogs are often overlooked, but they have just as much to offer as younger dogs. Sombra is ready for someone to give her a beautiful new chapter. Could that someone be you? ❤️ This is the standard I'll follow: detailed enough to educate adopters, short enough to hold their attention, and focused on the individual dog. October 30, 2026, 8:38 am

Meet Midnight Oreo A Distemper Survivor with a Heart Full of Hope and Love ❤️ Breed:  Terrier Mix Gender: Male | DOB: Feb 08, 2026 | Weight/Expected Size: 17 lbs  Good With: Dogs ✔️ | Cats: Unknown | Kids ✔️ Medical: ✔️ Neuter ✔️ Three Puppy Vaccinations Completed | ✔️ Microchipped | ⭐ Distemper Survivor Location: Los Angeles, California Transportation: Ozzie and Friends Rescue provides safe transportation to approved adopters throughout the United States. ❤️ Personality, Breed Information & Midnight Oreo's Story Midnight Oreo has already overcome more in his short life than most dogs ever will. As a young puppy, he was abandoned and left to survive on his own. Without a family to protect him, he faced hunger, uncertainty, and the dangers of life on the streets. Thankfully, kind rescuers found him and gave him the care he desperately needed. Shortly after entering rescue, Midnight Oreo was diagnosed with canine distemper, a devastating disease that many puppies don't survive. Thanks to dedicated veterinary care, proper treatment, and his incredible fighting spirit, Midnight Oreo beat the odds. Today, he is a proud distemper survivor who is healthy, happy, and ready to find the loving family he has always deserved. You would never guess everything this little guy has been through. Midnight Oreo is playful, affectionate, and full of puppy enthusiasm. He loves toys, enjoys exploring new places, and is always excited to spend time with people. After a day of playing, he's happiest curled up beside you, soaking up all the love and attention he can get. Midnight Oreo is expected to grow into an intelligent, loyal, and active companion. He is  friendly, eager-to-please personalities, while Terriers add confidence, curiosity, and a playful spirit. Together, these breeds create a wonderful family companion who enjoys both adventures and quiet time with the people he loves. Midnight Oreo would thrive in a home that offers: Plenty of love and companionship Daily walks and age-appropriate exercise Positive reinforcement training Interactive toys and mental enrichment Continued socialization with people and other dogs A consistent daily routine A safe indoor home where he's treated as a beloved member of the family A lifetime of love, patience, and commitment Midnight Oreo has already proven how strong and resilient he is. Now he's ready for the easy part—a family to love and a home where he'll never have to fight for another chance again. Training, Adjustment & What to Expect Midnight Oreo is still a young puppy and is learning about the world every day. His new family should expect normal puppy behaviors, including chewing, teething, house-training, and lots of curiosity. Please remember the 3-3-3 Rule: 3 Days to decompress and begin feeling safe 3 Weeks to learn your household routine 3 Months to fully settle into family life Midnight Oreo is eager to learn and will thrive with patient, positive reinforcement training. His new family should continue providing: Positive reinforcement training House-training and consistent routines Daily exercise appropriate for his age Continued socialization Mental enrichment through toys and games Plenty of love, patience, and encouragement With guidance and consistency, Midnight Oreo will grow into a confident, well-mannered companion who will reward his family with endless loyalty and affection. Owner Responsibilities & Veterinary Care Bringing home a puppy is a lifelong commitment that includes proper veterinary care, training, exercise, and companionship. As part of responsible pet ownership, Midnight Oreo will need: Routine veterinary wellness examinations Completion of any remaining vaccinations as recommended by your veterinarian Neutering when age-appropriate Monthly flea, tick, heartworm, and parasite prevention A balanced, high-quality diet to support healthy growth Daily exercise and mental enrichment Continued obedience training and socialization A safe, loving indoor home where he is treated as a cherished member of the family As a distemper survivor, we recommend discussing his medical history with your veterinarian during his first wellness visit. Most survivors go on to live happy, fulfilling lives, and routine veterinary care will help ensure Midnight Oreo continues to thrive.
