Story
Odie - Wirehaired Dachshund Mix - Male - 3 years - www.twyla.org If you'd like to know more about this dog please visit our website at www.Twyla.org Meet Odie: This gorgeous 3-year-old Wirehaired Dachshund and maybe Bassett Hound mix is sweet and gentle but also a little shy and timid. Odie was surrendered to us when his owner could no longer take care of him, and he's getting comfortable in his new foster home. Odie takes a while to warm up to new people - he mostly avoids eye contact until he figures out if he can trust you. Odie does well with other calm dogs his size - he's not looking for a playmate, but rather a parallel companion he can follow and mirror. He is not a fan of being alone and will voice that displeasure in a manner that suggests that his DNA contains some Bassett  Hound in there - along with the "he's a very long lowrider, isn't he?". He is fully house trained, walks well on leash and rides comfortably in the car. Odie is getting comfortable enough to play with his new toys. We suspect that Odie's vision isn't the best as he closely follows his chosen dog mentor around the house - this could also explain his lack of making eye contact with people. He follows his humans around the house, but not in a clingy Velcro dog manner, more in a supervisory capacity. Odie is looking for a patient home that will give him time to gain trust and security. He does OK with children that can respect his boundaries = if he moves away, let him. Another dog for him to follow will likely immediately increase his comfort level, as will someone who is home a lot. Odie is not a good candidate for a first time owner, nor is he suited for apartment living, as he will alert the neighbors the minute you step out. ***Please note: All dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers, so to meet a dog please fill out an Adoption Application on our website (http://www.twyla.org/adopt/our-adoption-process) so we may setup a private meetup with the dog or coordinate for an Introduction at the next general Adoption Meet and Greet (as listed on our website: (http://www.twyla.org/upcoming-events), as not all dogs attend all Meet and Greets*** ***Please note: All dogs are fostered in private homes of volunteers, so to meet a dog please fill out an Adoption Application on our website (http://www.twyla.org/adopt/our-adoption-process) so we may setup a private meetup with the dog or coordinate for an Introduction at the next general Adoption Meet and Greet (as listed on our website: (http://www.twyla.org/upcoming-events), as not all dogs attend all Meet and Greets***

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 27th of each month China is a new arrival to CTDR.  This sweet girl was part of an 80 dog breeding- hoarding situation.  She is very scared and nervous as she cannot understand what is going on. China has completed her initial vetting but sadly she did test positive for those nasty heartworms and will need to go through treatment before she can be adopted. She is a big girl and will need to go on Weight Watchers to lose a few pounds.  If you would like to add China to your family, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 7th of each month Calla is a new arrival to CTDR.  He is a 4 month old, beautiful white longhair doxie mix.  His name, Calla, comes from the beautiful white Calla Lily.  This little guy was found as a stray and taken to a local shelter in hopes his family would come for him, but no one showed and CTDR was contacted and of course we said we would take this little guy.  He is fully vetted and will need a couple of booster vaccines but he is ready for his forever home.  If you would like to give Calla a forever home, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
ProHeart Injection was given on 8/10/2025 Meet Rosie, a new arrival to CTDR.  The sweet young girl was found walking the streets of North Texas and taken to the nearest shelter.  Poor Rosie has a lots of hair loss on her belly and her legs and neck.  At first the vets thought it might be demodex mange, ( this is not the contagious one) or a flea allergy but both were ruled out and she was diagnosed with Atopic Dermatitis which is an allergic skin condition which can be caused by grass, certain dog foods etc.  She has been started on several medications to help with the hair loss, the skin and the itchiness.  You can see where her hair is coming back in her underneath area.  Rosie has had all of her vaccines and has been spayed and is ready for a forever home.  She will need to stay on her medications and get regular oatmeal baths until her skin has cleared up.  If interested in Miss Rosie, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 22nd of each monthUPDATE:  Nugget2 has found himself back in Rescue through no fault of his own.  The adopter could no longer care for him after him being with her for over a year.  He was not kept up to date on his vaccines so he will start his vetting process this week and then will be ready for his foster home.  He will need someone who can be patient with his little quirks. Nugget is truly a sweet dog, though he does face some challenges that may not entirely resolve over time. More information on his background may help explain some of his issues. For instance, he occasionally barks at what seems like nothing, and it's hard to pinpoint why. Despite this, he's comfortable at my home. He enjoys his outings, though he tends to walk very slowly, exploring the outside mostly through his sense of smell due to his limited hearing and vision. He navigates his environment cautiously, often not responding visually or audibly when called, which suggests he may not fully perceive where sounds or movements are coming from.  Nugget is still working on his house training and currently wears a belly band to manage any accidents effectively. There have been a few instances where he's had accidents on his bed and mine, particularly if the band shifts.  Additionally, Nugget is quite shy around new people and other dogs, often expressing his nervousness through a distinctive crying bark when he's in their presence.  Nugget can be quite selective with his food preferences, and it seems he may have been in an environment where he had to compete and fight for his food. He did not want to eat the hard food or the treats (Nulu brand) that I initially offered. To accommodate his tastes, I visited a specialty food store and purchased some freeze-dried food, which he thoroughly enjoys. I've also introduced some knee bones to his diet, and he seems to love those as well. Now, when I feed him, he approaches his meals with great fervor, very eagerly consuming his food as if it's a rare treat.   Additionally, I am continuing with his prescribed steroid medication as directed.  Nugget continues the habit of walking in circles, which appears to have a soothing effect on him, and responds with excitement and tail wagging whenever I express affection towards him.  Nugget has been with his foster family for a few months now. He loves laying outside on a sunny day and cuddling on your lap. Nugget does walk in circles sometimes and is still working on potty training. He doesn't mind wearing a belly band and likes wearing a calming jacket. Nugget specializes in being ridiculously adorable and would love a forever home. He does fine with his foster siblings Duncan the dachshund and Sophie Chiweenie.   Nugget is a new arrival to CTDR as an owner surrender due to his owners not being able to care for his special needs.  He does have hydrocephalus which causes him to have a dome shaped skull caused by cerebrospinal fluid that has leaked inside the skull.  He is currently on medication to help him with his coordination and other issues.  He is the cutest little guy and would love to have a foster or a forever home by Christmas.  If interested in this precious little guy, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 8th of each month Wendy and her best friend, Peter Pan are new arrivals to CTDR.  These two are very bonded and must be adopted together.  Wendy is a beautiful 4 year old red longhair girl who has completed her vetting process and she and Peter Pan are ready for their foster home or forever home.  Wendy is very timid and docile, but very kind. She loves attention and cuddles and her favorite thing is to be held. She prefers to only be with Peter Pan rather than other dogs, prefers walks with him and will have separation anxiety if she is away from him.  Wendy loves to be outside and sunbathe and she will never pass up a treat.  Wendy will also pick up Peter's habits and would prefer not to potty outside but is working on going in the yard.  She is leash trained, crate trained and baby gate trained.  If you would like to have Wendy and Peter Pan become a part of your family, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.
