Story

**You must live in Metro Atlanta to adopt her** Just like her famous namesake, Liza Minnelli knows she’s a star… the only difference is she’d rather perform zoomies than Broadway numbers. Liza is a 5 year old, 13 lb Poodle mix (with what we suspect is a splash of Dachshund) who has perfected the art of living her best life. Her daily schedule is simple: eat breakfast, immediately request a potty break, race around the yard with her foster siblings at top speed, play with every toy she can find, demand belly rubs, and then curl up next to her favorite human like she pays the bills. She’s incredibly loyal and happiest when she’s with her family. Whether you’re watching TV, working from home, or just existing, Liza believes your lap (or at least the spot right beside you) is exactly where she belongs. She’s also a bit of a food critic. Fancy training treats? Meh. Carrots? Hard pass. Fruit? Absolutely not. She’d like to file a formal complaint that affection isn’t sold by the pound because belly rubs are the only reward she truly values. Liza is crate trained while you’re away, enjoys the comfort of a routine, and is ready to bring plenty of laughs, love, and cuddles to her forever family. If you’re looking for a tiny best friend with a big personality, championship-level zoomies, and an endless supply of snuggles, Liza Minnelli is ready for her standing ovation. Liza does NOT leash walk, so she REQUIRES a fenced in yard. Unfortunately, Liza's previous home did not keep her on heartworm preventative, so she does have heartworms. Her treatment is included in the adoption fee, but this is why she must stay in Metro Atlanta, so she can get to our vet partners. Apply to adopt her on www.orphanannierescue.org Her adoption fee is $400, which includes her shots up-to-date, microchipping, spay, dental cleaning, and heartworm treatment.

Story

How precious is this tiny nugget? Zara is such a wonderful little wiener dog with a curious way of seeing the world. Her previous owners loved her but did not have the means to care for her when she suffered an IVDD back injury and was simultaneously discovered to be heartworm positive. Once she came into DREAM, we took Zara in right away to see our specialist, who performed surgery on the ruptured disc. Since then, she's begun her HW treatment and has undergone acupuncture and cold-laser therapy to help wake her central nervous system back up. It took almost 12 weeks, but we finally have her up and walking...most of the time. She is still wobbly, however this does not impede her quality of life. And if she tires herself out, Zara is perfectly content to get around in a set of wheels. Her mobility challenges certainly don't slow her down from playing with the other dogs in the house. Because of her physical limitations, Zara does need someone who can understand her bodily limits when it comes to holding her urine and stool. This is very easy to learn, very clean and the great thing is when kept on a schedule, she is house-trained and can go most anywhere. She does require someone to check her bladder and make sure it is empty after she finishes. This muscle is still regaining its strength after her injury. Zara is a friendly little muppet who loves her people and has the gumption to thrive no matter the circumstances. It's impossible to be around her without smiling and wanting to snuggle her. She is very much a lap-girl. If you are sitting down, she wants to be right next to you. Her goal in life is to be carried around 24 / 7 / 365. DREAM has helped dogs of all capability levels and we believe this girl is really easy to care for. Resource material is available for you to order as well. One of the original board members wrote this extremely helpful book about day to day life with a "down dog".... Honey Have You Squeezed the Dachshund. If you are interested in adopting Zara, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Zara's adoption fee is $500. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Zara will go to his / her new home microchipped, altered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed. Almost every dog's veterinary expense is greater than our adoption fees. DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia. Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part. DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back. Follow us on Instagram , Facebook and Twitter

Story

Boscoe has a number of talents and his foster mom calls him a smart Houdini. He quickly figured out how to open pocket doors to get into another room. He will push doors open if they are not latched to stay within sight of his person. He is an all star snuggler and we are sure he will pass the snuggles certification exam with flying colors. 😉 Boscoe had been training & is now about 90% house trained if kept on a schedule and his cues are picked up and he’s let outside for a potty break. He definitely needs a secure fenced yard as he likes to explore and looks for ways to let himself out for a solo adventures. He's not shown any signs of being a digger but he has shown tendencies to be a door darter. Boscoe is very athletic and can jump up quite high. Walking is his jam and he’s a perfect gentleman on a leash. He really loves being around people and can have some separation anxiety but is getting better. He's good with dogs and people but much prefers his people over another dog. Boscoe does NOT like to be crated and will chew the metal on the crate as his anxiety escalates being in there. He usually has something to say and lets his voice be heard if he isn’t feeling secure. His foster mom says he has settled in and she thinks he had a hard time adjusting to a new environment because he wasn’t around many different people and situations before coming to DREAM. He has met lots of new people and is doing well at becoming friends. If you are interested in adopting Boscoe, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Boscoe's adoption fee is $700. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Boscoe will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed.

Story

Patti is 3 yrs and 7 months old and follows my every step. Patti is 10 1/2 lbs but she's so tiny! Patti was surrendered to a vet clinic after she became unable to walk. She was diagnosed with IVDD- InterVertebral Disc Disease. This disease is found in short legged breeds is a condition where the cushioning discs between the spine's bones bulge or burst, pressing on the spinal cord. This disease can be treated and many dogs go on to live a happy, full life. Please read up before adding a dachshund to your family: https://dodgerslist.com/ Patti is getting the full treatment (minus surgery). She's getting gym sessions, laser, and hydro sessions. The underwater treadmill is really helping her regain some mobility. Her foster mom gives her sessions every day with an Assisi Loop to help with inflammation and pain. She is doing very well with her recovery and is regaining her mobility with each passing day. There are signs that Patti must have had some adventures before coming to DREAM. Her tail is crooked at the end. Whatever happened, she’s not telling and the good news is it doesn't bother her in the least, and certainly doesn't keep her from a constant tail wag. Patti is such a happy little girl who loves, loves, loves to chew and squeak toys that she loves destroying. She’s all about FUN! Patti was not house trained when coming to DREAM but has been a quick study and she’s happy to do all her business outside and looks for her reward treat from her foster mom. Patti is looking for an adopter who will: •continue her physical therapy for recovery •reinforce going outside to do her business •be a toy manager to assure no unauthorized ingestion of stuffing and squeakers •share all the cuddles and provide endless ball throwing for fetch sessions Patti will make a wonderful companion for someone. She's the whole package...... sweet, beautiful, tiny, loving, loyal, has great recall, and gets along with other small dogs. Now that she's gotten the hang of potty training she's a pretty much perfect little girl! If you are interested in adopting Patti, you can fill out an application right on our website!

Male, 4 yrs 3 mos

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Story

McGuinness was found as a stray and hit the jackpot when he safely made his way to rescue. This wispy wooly fluff ball may or may not have any dachshund lineage - who can tell under all that floof?!? Whatever breed he is, this boy is one fabulous dog. He is friendly and doing well with house training (not 100% yet), but please give him a moment to settle in as he can be nervous in new environments. He enjoys walks in peaceful parks but is not a fan of loud noises and cars speeding past. He likes to go and can be an escape artist zipping right past you at the door. Because of this, a fence is a must. He is fine with other calm small dogs but also would be good as a solo canine cause he loves his people. He is not a fan of being left alone so someone who has time to share would be the best. Another element he is NOT a fan of his crate. He hates it! He would say he loathes it. Tee hee. This is something we are continuing to work on slowly with him, but also keeping him calm and happy is a priority for us as well. So if you are a SAHP homebody, McGuinness may be just the guy for you. McGuinness is looking for: •home with a fence •can be companion for other small dog or solo canine in the home •person who is always up for cuddles •patient person who spends time at home with time to help Mr MG feel comfortable being left alone If you are interested in adopting McGuinness, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. McGuinness's adoption fee is $500. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds.
