Story
BeBe2 years old11 poundsChiweenieFostered in Lillington, NC Bebe is an adorable little Chiweenie (Chihuahua/Dachshund mix) with a tender heart and a big love for her people. This sweet girl has been through a lot — she came to the shelter after her beloved owner passed away. She was found faithfully staying by their side, and while that loss has made her a bit cautious at first, it’s also shown just how deeply she bonds. Bebe can be a little skittish when meeting new people, and she’s still timid in unfamiliar situations. But give her a little reassurance, a soft voice, and some patience, and you’ll see her melt. Once she trusts you, she settles in beautifully and becomes the ultimate companion. She would thrive in a quiet, calm home where she can feel safe and secure. Because she likes to alert-bark at new or unfamiliar noises, an apartment or condo setting wouldn’t be the best fit for her. She’s mostly housetrained and does best with a consistent routine. Bebe would do well in a home with kids over 10 who understand how to be gentle and respectful. She’s fine with visiting younger children, especially when interactions are calm and supervised. She would absolutely love another playful dog to romp around with — or an active family who will happily toss a ball for her (her favorite game!).  And when playtime is over? Bebe is a huge snuggle bug. Her favorite place in the world is curled up in your lap, soaking up all the love. She’ll happily trade zoomies for cuddles in a heartbeat. If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, lap-loving companion who just needs a little patience to shine, Bebe may be your perfect match. Once you’re in her circle of trust, you’re there for life.  ##2662582##

Story
Miriam's Christmas wish came just a few days before Christmas when she entered the doors of a shelter. Surrendered by her homeless owner who could not provide the medical care she desperately needed and rescue was called to come to her rescue! This older black and tan gal was full of mammary tumors, in need of a spay (to stop the growth of said mammary tumors) and a significant dental. It has taken us some time to get her medical completed as she had to have a double mastectomy to remove all of the tumors - so that has required 2 major surgeries. Thankfully all tumors came back benign - the beginning of Miriam finding her new "leash" on life! But Miriam, in true dachshund fashion, has handled all of her medical care in stride! Miriam loves to be with her humans and enjoys lots of belly rubs and cuddles. She is good with small dogs, housebroken, good on a leash. She loves going outdoors for a short walk and to bark at birds, leaves and snowflakes. She prefers to sleep in the big bed with her humans and is a gold medal Olympic Champion at burrowing under the covers. Miriam is very food motivated. She is not tested with cats but can be upon request. No apartments or condos because Miriam does tend to like to hear herself "talk". She definitely will let you know if she feels her meal is late or if she deserves more treats. Not tested with children but would probably do fine with them. We are pleased to announce that Miriam’s veterinary coverage is partially by Vintage Fur Senior Dogs Inc! Miriam will receive $600 every year in veterinary coverage for the rest of her life. This money may be used to treat conditions and treatments including prescription medication, bloodwork, imaging and more.

Keon (Female)Dachshund Mix2 years old32 poundsFostered in the Raleigh areaShort list: Housetrained, loves dogs and needs a dog friend, kids over 8, no apartments/condos, crate trained, good with catsKeon is a sweet, playful girl who loves big! She is one of the most adorable dogs we've seen in a long time with her longer body and shorter legs. She’s crate trained, housetrained, and enjoys playing with other dogs. If there’s an open lap, she’ll happily claim it for some snuggles.Keon came into rescue through no fault of her own—her previous owner became homeless and was living in their car—but her heart is full of love and she’s ready to find her forever family. She would thrive with an active household who can give her the exercise and engagement she adores.She takes a minute to warm up to new people, but once you are one of her people, she loves you to the moon and back. Keon gets along great with small and medium size dogs as well as cats. She's not a fan of big dogs.Keon is doing well on the leash, though she’s still polishing her skills, and she’s a big fan of tug-of-war! She also has a whole lot of excitement waiting to greet her family when they come home—it’s impossible not to smile around her.Keon is spayed, UTD on shots, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Her new family will need to drive to Raleigh - no transports. We prefer families in NC, VA, SC, DC area, northern GA, eastern TN, and WV.

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
Meet Monse!!🩷 Monse is just over a year old and full of life! She has a big personality and even bigger energy. She absolutely loves to play and gets so excited when she sees kids or other animals — she’s very friendly and social. Monse would thrive in a home where she has someone who can match her playful energy. She would do great with an active person, a family, or anyone who has the time to run around and play with her daily. This has been a very hard decision for me. Because of my work schedule, I come home exhausted and can’t give her the level of activity and attention she truly deserves. I want her to have the fullest life possible. Monse does have a small hernia that a vet said can be repaired at the time of her spay surgery. I have not been able to complete that due to cost, but it is something that can be addressed with proper veterinary care.
