Story
Introducing the goober of the century, 3yr old, 20 pound, Ripple before you instantly fall in love with him(though I know it’s hard looking at him) Ripple is looking for a specific home. We ask that you fully read his bio and think about if you are able to give him the life that he needs and deserves, or if you are only applying because he’s cute. Yes, Ripple is a dachshund, and he falls under the typical personality of dachshunds, but he also went through the trauma of losing his home and family after they decided to rehome him. Baby boy arrived to us emaciated, having never gone to the vet, and still intact. Since then he has gotten up-to-date with his vaccines, has been neutered, is on preventatives, and at a healthy weight. However, this boy, is a classic overthinker/worrier, and lets his anxiety run rampant. He needs a mama who is ready to make him their entire world, and is either retired or works from home and will let him lay in your lap during work. He would absolutely live inside your skin if it were possible, and forget going to the bathroom aloneHe needs someone kind, patient, caring and loving. Someone who’s going to take the time to make sure that he feels safe in the world, help him grow and get confident on a timeline that matches him, not what you want him to be. He’s extremely smart and being VERY food motivated, and will be a wonderful training partner. Ripple is fantastic with other dogs, has NO issues with cats, and is a little bit confused and intimidated by chickens He’s playful, very silly, and is made from love He sleeps under the covers, cuddled up, and wakes up in the morning with gentle kisses. He will not present well, and will bark and bark at you until you offer him treats, then the tides will turn, and he will be your best friend forever! A fenced in yard would be ideal, as he can be a flight risk when he’s afraid. If you have the biggest heart, loving arms, a warm lap, a quiet life, and you would like to take a step forward in meeting/adopting this precious baby boy, please send in an application!
