Story
Miles is 7 years old and was adopted from a local rescue at 10 weeks old. He bonded to our older dog without any issues but definitely calls the shots. As he has gotten older he has become more aggressive and intolerant of other dogs and house guests. We adopted a puppy last August and he does not tolerate him and must be secluded unless he goes outside to the bathroom. If you have him 1 on 1 he is a sweetheart but he needs a quiet home where there are no kids and no other pets. We love him but want what is best for him and our home environment is no longer suited for his needs.

Otis

Dachshund Labrador Retriever

Male, Adult
Philadelphia, PA
Size
(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
Details
Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Otis is a loving, playful, and incredibly loyal pup who was adopted from a shelter in Philadelphia when he was about 1.5 years old, after he was found as a stray on the streets of Atlanta. Since then, Otis has grown into a loyal, curious, and deeply affectionate dog. Indoors, he can be both relaxed and playful; tossing toys around or nudging you for a game of tug or fetch; while still being content to curl up nearby for a nap. Outside, he lights up even more; whether he's chasing squirrels, lying in the sun, or exploring the world around him. He is good with some dogs when he knows them but can be aggressive especially on a leash with others. He's happiest when he has space to roam, a soft spot to rest, and someone nearby he trusts. Otis needs a stable but active lifestyle, and an owner who preferably has a big backyard since he can be challenging in dog parks and doggie daycares.

Story
Located in Tennessee but can be transported to you through Rescue Riders. This girl was brought in with babies when her owner couldn't take care of her. She was not socialized very well so will need some work. She will need a very patient person to get her to come out of her shell. She was kept outside so she has no house manners, nor has she been with cats. She does do well with dogs her size and seems to like to play with them. She deserves a new chance to be a loved dog and companion. She will take a lot of time and investment but deserves a chance!
