Story
Nathan12 (ish) years young12.5 poundsFostered in Garner, NCShort list: Great with dogs, great with cats, Loves kids (would be great with a family with kids four and up or visiting littler ones), dachshund housetrained, crate trained, loves to snuggle, likes to go on walksNathan is a 12-year-old dachshund with the heart and energy of a much younger pup. Found as a stray in rural North Carolina, this happy little guy got a second chance and has been spreading joy ever since. No one ever told Nathan he’s 12 — he lives life with a wagging tail and a big personality that lights up every room he enters.Nathan is truly the happiest little dude in the world. His tail wag is absolutely adorable and never seems to stop, especially when he’s greeting new friends. And he makes friends everywhere he goes! He loves people, especially kids, and would do great in a home with children over 4. He’d also do just fine with visiting little ones who want to give him some gentle love.This smart boy is crate trained, "senior dachshund housetrained" and walks nicely on a leash. He enjoys getting out and about, soaking up the sunshine, and exploring the outdoors. When he needs to go out to “party,” he’ll politely bark to let you know.Nathan is also a world-class snuggler. His favorite place is curled up on the couch with his people, or tucked under the covers like the cozy little burrower he is. He loves sitting on laps and will happily nudge you if you stop petting him before he’s ready — because in Nathan’s opinion, there’s no such thing as too many pets.And like many dachshunds, Nathan has opinions! If something isn’t quite the way he likes it, he won’t hesitate to let you know. He also LOVES to eat and is always excited when it’s time for a meal or snack. Because he lost a lot of teeth in his dental, his tongue hangs out in the most adorable way, but it doesn't stop him at all when mealtime comes.Nathan is neutered, had senior bloodwork, UTD on vaccines, heartworm negative, and microchipped. He had a dental with many extractions and will likely need additional work in the future.His new family will need to travel to Raleigh, NC area to adopt him - no transports. We prefer to adopt to families in NC, VA, SC, eastern TN, northern GA, southern MD, DC area and WV. To get the process started of adopting Nathan, please fill out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/applicationNathan is full of love, personality, and charm. If you’re looking for a happy, snuggly companion who will make you smile every day, Nathan might just be your perfect little sidekick. ##2631212##

Story
FritzDouble Dapple DachshundFostered in Sanford3 years old17 pounds Short list: Friendly, velcro dog, Good with kids over 8, limited sight, limited hearing, could be only dog or with other dogs, working on housetraining, cannot do stairs, no apartments, on slow kill treatment for heartworms Fritz is one of the happiest, most affectionate little guys we’ve ever met. Found wandering in eastern NC, this special double dapple boy hasn’t let his rough start—or his disabilities—dim his joy for life. Because he’s a double dapple, Fritz has limited vision and hearing, which just means he experiences the world a little differently… and bonds very deeply with his people. He doesn’t just follow you — he super-glues himself to you. If he can’t find you, he’ll bark to let you know (which is why apartments and condos won’t work). Once reunited, he’ll immediately melt into your lap and fall asleep. Cold nights? Loneliness? Not in 2026.Fritz sleeps through the night, loves the big bed, and is an A+ snuggle partner who never steals the covers. Despite his vision challenges, Fritz enjoys walks, plays with other dogs, and has even discovered toys. However, Fritz can resource guard, especially over his person. He will need to be an only dog or with a family who can manage the resource guarding. He’ll need a stair-free home (or one where stairs can be blocked off and he can be carried), and a laid-back dog pack that’s welcoming and gentle. H Potty training is a work in progress — he does well on a schedule and uses both outside time and pee pads. Pro tip: if Fritz barks “out of nowhere,” he’s probably politely asking to go potty. Fritz is neutered and has had a dental cleaning. He’s UTD, microchipped, and had bloodwork. Because he is heartworm positive, we have started him on the slowkill treatment for heartworms and the rescue will pay for it until he tests negative. Fritz is looking for a homebody or work-from-home family who wants a loyal companion, understands his special needs, and is ready to start the New Year with a dog who will love them with his whole heart. Make 2026 the year you find your shadow, your snuggle buddy, and your best friend. Fritz is ready for his new life!  ##2603793##

Story
Jackson is a very sweet pup who wants to be apart of everything you're doing. He hasn't left my side for one minute since fostering him, which may just be a temporary attachment trait with a new situation. He is happy to lay around or be playful / explore. From what I've seen so far, he loves other dogs and is good with kids. I haven't seen him with cats yet, so I'm not sure about that. He is potty-trained. He is not crate trained yet, but am working on that. He can be a little protective of his people / space, but will calm down once he knows they are not a threat. He doesn't seem super food motivated. He has whined some when leaving him in a different room or crate, but not too bad. He sheds a decent amount. He is a very chill and loving pup all in all and I feel confident he is going to be a great companion.
