Story
Chonk is a dachshund terrier mix he was adopted in February from the BAS and i have all his paperwork and his rabies tag aswell. i recently took him in from his previous owner that adopted him from BAS but he’s not fond of my 1 year old and i wanting a puppy for her since she loves animals, he’s very loving and sweet loves to go in walks and be outside. he has no known health issues other than being a bit overweight. i can’t keep him much longer since there is also tension with my male cat who’s been hiding since he came to live with us.

Story
Meet Max — the Velcro Dog ExtraordinaireDachshund Mix (possibly Beagle or other hound)9 years22 lbsFostered in Holly SpringsQuick Stats: Loves cats Gets along with small/medium dogs, but could be only Housebroken Great walker, car-ride champ Crates are not his thing Needs a single-family home (no shared walls) Kids 8+ LOVES his person… like, a lotMax is a certified Velcro Dog: if he could merge into your hoodie, he would. His love language is “personal space? never heard of her.” When you’re gone, he posts up on the back of the couch like a furry security guard waiting for your grand return. And he LOVES blankets and has the most adorable self-blanketing routine we've ever seen - check out the video in the comments.He came into rescue when his elderly owner, who adored him, could no longer safely navigate around his enthusiastic under-foot devotion. After a few weeks in foster care, Max is thriving and officially accepting applications for his forever human.Looking for a buddy for hikes, breweries, festivals, or casual neighborhood fame? Max is your guy. He makes friends easily, walks like a pro, and rides in the car like he’s training for a road-trip Olympics.He’s housebroken and politely sits by the door when he needs out—though if you miss his signal, he may leave you a gentle “reminder,” so routine is your friend. Crates? Hard pass from Max. His new people will need to use a pen, leave him out, or be ready to work on slow-and-steady crate training.Because Max loves hard, he will absolutely let you—and your neighbors—know when you’ve left the building. Single-family home required. He’d also prefer someone home more often than not. He adores cats, like LOVES them in a way rarely found in dachshunds. If his human isn't available, we often find him snuggling with the cat.Max gets along with small/medium dogs. But this dude would also be happy to hog all the attention as an only dog. Big dogs in his home? No thanks. He randomly decides he's 100 pounds and tries to tell off the big dogs when they get in his space. But seeing big dogs on walks or out on adventures? Totally fine.Max is neutered, up to date on shots, HW negative, freshly dentally tuned-up, microchipped, and working on shedding a few pounds (his beach-body era is coming). At first, we thought he had selective dachshund hearing, but we now think he has some hearing loss.Max's new family will need to drive to Holly Spring, NC (Raleigh area) to adopt their new BFF. We prefer families in NC, VA, SC, eastern TN, WV, or DC area. To get the process of adopting Max started, fill out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/applicationIf you want a loyal, goofy, affectionate shadow who transforms ordinary days into excellent ones, Max is ready to attach himself—lovingly—to your life.And if Max isn't a fit for your family, share his bio so we can get this guy what he really wants for Christmas — his very own forever family. ##2580484##

Story
Magic’s story began when she came into foster care pregnant—and just a few days later, she delivered one healthy, beautiful puppy. In the beginning, she was scared and unsure of the world, but with time, patience, and love, she’s discovered that humans can be her safe space. Magic may still be a bit hesitant in loud or busy environments, so she’ll thrive best in a quiet home with routine and structure. Once she trusts you, though, she is all in—incredibly loyal, affectionate, and never far from your side. She is truly the definition of a lap dog and loves nothing more than curling up with her people. Don’t let her cuddly side fool you—Magic is also a young, active pup with plenty of energy! She loves chasing balls in the yard, exploring on walks, and playing with her people. At 15 pounds and about 2 years old, she’s the perfect size and age for someone looking for a companion who is both playful and snuggly. And the best part? She’s housetrained! Magic is ready to share her heart with someone special. Could that be you? Adoption fee is $400 and includes spay, microchip, first two vaccines, and deworming. Mama has also already received her rabies vaccination. Apply at julietshouse.org

Story
Who wants to head into the 100 acres woods for an adventure? Christopher Robin is ready to take you there! This little dachshund mix has the most adorable little face and comical expressions. He is 3-4 yrs old and is still learning about being a proper pet but is doing well with his crate training and is good on a leash. We are sure once in a home with more attention he will come around and be a loving companion for many years. Dog, cat and kid safe but would probably prefer a quiet home type. In Warrenton VA. https://form.jotform.com/hailmaryrescue/hail-mary-rescue-adoption-applicati
