I’m just beginning to recognize my name… usually I’m too busy playing to pay attention. I love to play and wrestle with my foster brothers. I’ve found my voice and I like to taunt my buddies until they decide I’ve annoyed them enough the they will play with me. I get zoomies several times each day. I’m the most handsome red brindle you’ll ever see, especially on a little guy like me. My foster family says I’ll probably never get bigger than about 11#, but I’ll always think I’m bigger than that. I’m working on my house training. It’s a work in progress, but I was only born in April. I’m still young. I’m doing really well with harness and leash training. I enjoy my walk around the block every night with my foster brothers. I love my big foster brother best of all and I follow him everywhere. Sometimes he’s a fuddy-duddy and won’t play. He is after all a senior dog of four and lives with my foster family. My other foster brother is just a little younger than me and we often walk side by side and play together all day. I won’t be available for adoption outside of Sioux Falls until after October 12th, but I’m anxiously awaiting becoming part of your family and playing with you. I hope you have a new dog brother for me to play with. I’m not sure about big dogs or cats. I will need to be tested before adopting into a family like that.I do require a physically fence yard as I can be shy when I first meet new people. I love hunting and exploring and doing the zoomies so a fenced yard is a must. I am 5 months 3 weeks old, I currently weigh 6 or 7 pounds I am a growing puppy, my adoption fee is $600 plus sales tax $27= $627   My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental if needed for retained puppy teeth and microchipping.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 26, 2026, 9:54 pm

I do well with other small dogs, big dogs are not my friends in my book. I have either selective hearing or my hearing just isn't what it used to be anymore. I can hear clapping hands and whistles. I come trotting back to the house when my foster mom claps her handles and I make eye contact with her. I'm loving her big fenced in backyard with lots of birds, rabbits and squirrel to hunt. I do need a securely physically fenced yard to keep me safe. I love a soft dog bed and good food. Can you be my furever home? I am 14 yrs young, I weigh 14 pounds, my adoption fee is $250 plus sales tax $11.25=$261.25   My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental with full mouth extraction and microchipping.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 26, 2026, 9:54 pm

I'm still trying to figure out where I belong :( I'm very happy at my foster mom's house, lots of other dachshunds my age to run chase and play with, a big fenced yard to explore and hunt rabbits, squirrels, birds, there are even deer and geese on the other side of the fence! My foster mom gets up before the sun comes up so I am used to getting up early, having fun and then kenneling up when my foster mom goes to work. As soon as she gets home we all spend a lot of time enjoying the outdoors. At my foster mom's I always keep my kennel clean, I sleep in a big kennel with lots of room and soft blankets. I've had 6 homes now, the next one I pray will be the perfect one for me I'm a wirehair dachshund, full of love and life once I get to know you. I was treated badly in one of my previous homes so it takes me a few days to feel comfortable in a new place, my second home big dogs beat me up so it takes me a couple days to feel safe around even other little dogs. But once I settle in and know I am safe, whoa, I love playing and having fun. Do you have extra love and patience and another dachshund to play with me? I am 2 years young, I weigh 10 pounds, my adoption fee is $400 plus sales tax $18=$418Hi! I'm Roxi. I am a sweet and very active dachsie girl. I came to Dakota Dachshund Rescue as I have a very strong prey drive and was injuring chickens on the farm.My family loved me but found very quickly I was born to hunt so being a farm dog was not a good thing! I need a strong pack leader and a secure physically fenced yard to keep me safe!I have a very high prey drive and will chase chickens, rabbits, squirrels, cats, anything that moves fast!I am doing well with my house training. I get along with most other dogs my size. Do you have an open spot for a sweet girl like me? I am 2 years young, I weigh almost 11 pounds, my adoption fee is $400 plus sales tax $18=$418   My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, spay, dental if needed and microchipping.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 26, 2026, 9:54 pm

I recently started my journey to become a house pet, learning about living in the house, wearing a harness and leash, going potty outside. I'm lovin' life on the couch. I do require a physically fenced yard to keep me safe as I am not used to being outside and am just starting to learn my name as well as any recall commands. I am a typical dachshund that loves exploring outside, so many wonderful smells and creatures to chase. I am a very young 9 year old girl, I weigh about 10 pounds, my foster mom is trying to add a little weight on me :) My adoption fee is $250 plus sales tax $11.25= $261.25     My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, spay, dental  and microchipping.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 26, 2026, 9:54 pm

He has not been with cats or children, so that is unknown.  Given a chance to get used to you, he will be a wonderful family edition.  Cooper has just begun his journey to become a house pet, everything is new to him including a harness and leash. Cooper gets spooked very easier, he does require a fenced yard to keep him safe. Can you offer Cooper a quiet more laid back furever home? Cooper is 5 years young, he weighs 14 pounds, his adoption fee is $350 plus sales tax $15.75=$365.75   My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental  and microchipping.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.September 26, 2026, 9:54 pm
