Story
Decatur, IL leiashope.org 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. Applications at leiashope.org Located in Decatur, IL.

Story
My adoption fee has been generously sponsored! All Pet Central animals are up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed or neutered, microchipped (registration included), and current on parasite prevention. Dogs over six-months of age are heartworm tested. When adopting, we will ensure that you receive copies of veterinary and microchip records. If you are interested in this pet, please fill out the brief Adopter Survey by hitting "Apply for Adoption" on the profile. After we review your completed survey, we will contact you by phone or email within three business days. We're primarily a volunteer organization, so we appreciate your patience. Please note- Out of respect for our volunteers and staff, we are closed on Sundays and Mondays and will not be processing any applications on that day. Do get back to us right away when we call or email regarding an application so that we can quickly connect using the process below: Select a pet and submit an online adoption survey. A PCH adoption counselor will contact potential adopters within three business days (PCH cannot guarantee any pet's availability, but we make every effort to accommodate adopters with a reply and possible alternative suggestions). Counselor and client will then have a conversation to answer questions, discuss any medical needs for the pet and determine the suitability of a match (if necessary, we may opt to put adopters in touch with foster parents). After a match is made, clients will be asked to sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee online through our secure payment system *Please see our modified no-risk return policy. (below) The PCH adoption counselor will then set up a specific appointment time and location. Adopters should bring a pet carrier and leash to pick up. Adult pets will be wearing a collar. It is important that clients arrive on time, neither early nor late. If your adoption is scheduled at Pet Central Helps!: Upon arrival inside the Crossroads Center complex (360 Wylie Drive), look for the black Pet Central Helps! semi-trailer, which is right outside of our facility (Suite 720). Park in the parking lot and enter the facility. A PCH representative will greet you and show you to the adoption room. Your new pet will be handed to you. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. If your adoption is scheduled at PetSmart: Park in the PetSmart Parking lot and enter the store. We will be set up just inside the store entrance. Let us know you are here to pick up your pet! A PCH representative will confirm your information and hand you your pet. We will take a "Happy Adoption Day photo with your pet and family. PCH supports a 21-day no-fault return policy in which adopters are given the opportunity to find a better match. If we are not able to provide advice/tools to keep a pet in the home we offer these options: Exchange for a pet that may be a better match** Receive a refund minus a $40 processing fee** With this approach, we can often turn mismatches into opportunities! Thank you, Pet Central Helps!
