(For more pics, visit nr2r.petfinder.com or www.RoadtoRescueLA.org)   INSTRUCTIONS TO APPLY: PLEASE read profile thoroughly BEFORE applying: DOG APPLICATION LINK:    http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application Copper (male) Intake date:   2/26/2026 Dachshund/ Chihuahua mix 3 years old Intake weight:  11.2 pounds Adoption fee:  $170, which includes vetting, microchip Good with other dogs:  yes (when he first came to us, he was very scared of other dogs – but he’s overcoming) Cats:  unknown – we do not have cats to be able to test Vetting and other:  altered (neutered), up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm negative, fecal negative, on monthly flea/tick and heartworm prevention, microchipped Health issues:  none observed. Temperament:  very sweet, submissive, shy – haven’t heard him bark, although we’re sure there is a bark in there somewhere! Energy level:  low Groom needs:  low maintenance Biography:  Copper came in with Gracie Pearl when their elderly owner had to move into apartments that would only take service dogs.  Copper came to us already neutered and we had everything else done at our vet.  Copper was unsure of the other dogs at the rescue at first… letting out a yelp when they would come close.  He’s overcoming that as he realizes no one is there to harm him.  He travels well and walks pretty well on a leash.  He was used to sleeping in the bed with his human so if you love a cuddler at night and you love a Dachshund, Copper is the cuddler for you!   **WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW** *We do adopt out of state provided the adopter is willing and able to travel to us once approved.  We do not ship or transport our animals and there is no exception to this rule.   *Most of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever!  We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family!   We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing and the dog is over 15 pounds.  There is no exception to this rule!   *PREDATORS:    IF THIS DOG IS UNDER 10 POUNDS, the dog is to be monitored and protected when outside at all times!  PREDATOR-THREAT IS A REAL DANGER!  For example, a hawk tried to pick up a Chihuahua owned by a friend visiting Ninna’s house… RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE VISITOR.  Thankfully the visitor was watching the dog and the hawk was wrestled off of the Chihuahua but it did require an ER visit and she is was very lucky to survive.   TAKE IT SERIOUSLY!     *NO SMALL CHILDREN!!  As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended.   Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children.  KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL!  Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.    *HOUSETRAINING:  We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained.   While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night.  Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn’t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home.  Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.    *KENNELING:  We always recommend kenneling when you cannot supervise your dog.  This helps with housetraining and any destructive tendencies until you get to know your knew addition.   *We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome.  Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.   *Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply.   If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty.  That’s our guarantee.   Other notes:  This pet is available for adoption through Ninna’s Road to Rescue, Benton, La.  We are 501c3 non-profit organization.  Our mission is to rescue primarily small-breed dogs and to re-home them into RESPONSIBLE and CARING forever homes.    DOG APPLICATION LINK:   http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application Time may be of the essence if you are looking to adopt a specific animal.  We do not reserve animals, unless and until we have approved your application, provided the animal is still available at the time we receive your application.  The first APPROVED application we receive will be considered.  We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue!! We adopt our rescues out to the RIGHT home, not just A home. Only responsible pet owners need apply. Applying to adopt does NOT commit you to the adoption NOR does it guarantee the adoption.

Happy is a female tan with white mix breed we were told dachshund/beagle but the short ears came from somewhere! She is 1.5 years old and she weighs about 26 pounds. Happy is spayed and vaccinated including rabies. Happy is heartworm negative and on monthly heartworm preventive. Happy is ready for adoption. Happy was surrendered to animal control because her family said she was being picked on by other dogs in the home and she was fearful. Happy does get very nervous about some things, like cars going by, but she has not been fearful nor aggressive with dogs. She is also fine with humans given a little warming up time. Happy’s favorite things are food, food, and treats. We think you can teach her anything with food and consistency. Happy enjoys playtime outside especially if you stay outside with her. She also enjoys leash walks but does better on a path or trail than along a busy street. Happy knows her name. She is crate trained and potty trained. We think Hqppy will thrive with a predictable routine and home life. She is not a girl to love change and adventure. Happy would do best with a fenced back yard or regular quiet leash walks. Adoption fee is $200. Must apply: Application for adoption is located at http://fs19.formsite.com/JeffTarpleyRescue/application/index.html Jeff Tarpley Rescue 903-490-2959 We require all potential adopters to submit an application.

The online application can be found at this location: http://fs19.formsite.com/JeffTarpleyRescue/application/index.html A completed adoption application and, upon approval, an adoption contract is required. Jeff Tarpley Rescue welcomes applications from homeowners, renters, and condo or apartment dwellers. At a minimum, a phone interview will be conducted and a vet reference checked before the applicant may meet their preferred pet. We adopt primarily in the 4 states of the ArkLaTexOma. Applicants willing to travel to Texarkana will also be considered with additional requirements to qualify as approved.
