Story
Sweet Maddie Bea!Maddie Bea is a 3 year old Breeder Release Miniature Dachshund who at this time is still timid. She is beginning to find out what it is like to have a life that is free and having someone who cares.She has only been in a foster home for a few days and she has already started with zoomies in the yard. She has become a velcro dog with her foster mom but she is still reluctant to come to her and be loved on. She will let you pick her up but it does take a few minutes for her to know that it is okay. She is mostly house trained and can go all night with no accidents. In her forever home it is preferred that Maddie Bea has a fenced yard. Kids need to be 10+ since fast movements or loud noises can startle her. She is also going to need some one who is patient and willing to let her grow at her own pace. Your patience and work will come back to you 10-fold with this sweet girl!If you are interested in meeting Maddie Bea, please fill out an application at AHeinz57.com,

Story
Miracles. Her name says it all — and honestly, she is one.This beautiful 6-year-old Dachshund spent the first chapter of her life in a breeder`s cage, producing litter after litter of puppies, never once having a moment that was just for her. No yard to sniff, no couch to curl up on, no one to stroke her ears and tell her she was a good girl. That chapter is over now, and Miracles is ready to thrive.She is fully vetted — spayed, vaccinated, and has had dental work. You may notice some hair loss on her ears, likely due to the malnourishment she endured, but she is already blossoming. Given how lovely she is after such a hard start, we expect that with good food, proper care, and a whole lot of love, this girl is going to be a genuine stunner.Miracles is an explorer at heart — the moment she discovered a fenced yard, something lit up in her. Nose to the ground, tail wagging, sniffing every inch of the world she was never allowed to see. Back inside, she is equally happy to curl up beside you and be gently stroked — calm, peaceful, and soaking up every bit of affection she can get.Miracles is working hard on her potty training and doing a great job — she uses pee pads indoors and goes outside when taken out. She`s still finding her rhythm, as any newly rescued dog would, so a little patience goes a long way. She has never been leash trained either, so she`ll need a gentle, encouraging hand to help her learn — a small ask for a dog who has waited six years for a chance at a real life. She is hand shy but after only a day she laid down to et her foster mom pick her up a few times so she should get over the shyness with patience, gentleness and lots of treats (she LOVES treats!). As a classic long-bodied Dachshund, she would do best in a home without a lot of stairs. More critically, Dachshunds are uniquely prone to serious spinal cord injuries, and jumping off furniture — even a low sofa — can cause severe, sometimes permanent damage and paralysis. Miracles must not be allowed to jump down from heights, and ramps or steps are a must.Miracles` ideal home looks something like this:🏡 A fenced yard where she can safely explore and follow her nose🐾 A small, confident canine companion to show her the ropes and keep her company since she adores other dogs🦮 Someone with the patience and commitment to gently leash train her📚 An adopter who is knowledgeable about Dachshu
