Story
DobbyDoo - 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 DobbyDoo (Dobby), a house elf looking for his forever home. Dobby was found on the HOV Lane of the Eastex Freeway at Tidwell, heading towards downtown Houston.  He was likely dumped on the freeway by some inhumane muggle!  After posting flyers and online, no owners came forward. Dobby is a sweet little man, probably about 1.5 to 3 years old.  He’s fully house trained, weighs just under 20 lbs., and is likely some sort of dachshund mix—he has a longer body and shorter legs.  He’s got a very short and smooth coat, so minimal shedding. Dobby is understandably cautious of new people, but sweet and friendly once he warms up; he's just not sure that everyone is going to be nice to him!  He would do best if there's someone around regularly and if there’s another dog in the house for him to romp around with.  He doesn’t much like being alone.  He gets along great with other dogs and is tolerant of cats.  He hasn't really been around children, but probably would do well with older kids.  But because he's a bit timid, he might not do well with smaller children. Dobby does great on a leash and loves going for walks.  He's a chatty boy when it's walk time, but is otherwise fairly quiet.  He is a good eater and is quite food-motivated.  He definitely is a people-pleaser and seems pretty trainable.  He's working on learning to "sit" on command, already knows his name, and generally comes when he's called.  He's very playful and will chew shoes if they're left out, but he's not an aggressive chewer and has not done any damage to the shoes he's grabbed.  (Maybe he's just trying to encourage his foster family to put their shoes away!)  He loves to cuddle and lay next to his fosters on the couch in the evenings.  Dobby has had his vaccinations, has been dewormed, and was recently neutered. Unfortunately, he’s heartworm positive, but he has started the slow-kill treatment by getting a Pro-Heart Heartworm shot.  He’s in the very early stages of the infection, has no symptoms, and is otherwise very healthy.  He's also on monthly flea and tick preventative. ***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
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 22nd of each monthNugget is a truly sweet little dog whose quirks are well understood and very manageable. He has limited hearing and vision, so he experiences the world mostly through his sense of smell and moves through his environment slowly and thoughtfully. He enjoys calm walks, sunny afternoons outside, and cuddling in your lap. Nugget can be shy at first and may express nervousness with a soft crying bark, but once he feels safe, he responds warmly to affection with tail wags and excitement. He sometimes walks in gentle circles to self-soothe, happily wears a calming jacket, and is currently working on house training while wearing a belly band, which he tolerates well. Nugget has lived successfully in a home for extended periods and does well with small dogs, including his foster siblings Duncan the dachshund and Sophie the Chiweenie, though he remains afraid of large dogs. He sleeps, eats, and settles easily into a predictable routine, takes his prescribed steroid medication without issue, and thrives with patience and consistency. Update: Nugget has returned to CTDR through no fault of his own and will begin his vetting process before heading to a foster home. Nugget will do best with a calm, understanding family who can appreciate his gentle nature and embrace his manageable quirks. If you would like to give Nugget the loving home he deserves, please complete an adoption application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 29th of each month Meet Slinky, a handsome senior gentleman who is the newest arrival to CTDR. Slinky was found wandering the streets of North Texas and taken to a local shelter, where he was at risk. CTDR was contacted, and we stepped in immediately to give this sweet boy a second chance. Slinky loves to burrow under his covers and his favorite thing in the world is to lay in the sun and enjoy the outdoors.  He also loves his walks and is good on a harness and leash.                    Slinky has begun his vetting process and will need a dental, as his mouth is in rough shape. He gets along well with other dogs and truly loves being with his people. If you are interested in giving Slinky a loving forever home and a cozy place to enjoy his golden years, please complete an adoption application at www.ctdr.org.

Story
Heartworm Prevention is given on the 8th of each month Wendy arrived at CTDR with her beloved best friend, Peter Pan, and the two are deeply bonded and must be adopted together. Wendy is a beautiful red longhair girl who has completed her vetting and is ready, along with Peter Pan, for a foster home or forever home. She is a very timid and docile girl with a kind, gentle heart. Wendy loves attention and cuddles and is happiest when being held. She prefers the company of Peter Pan over other dogs and enjoys going on walks with him, and she can experience separation anxiety if they are apart. Wendy enjoys sunbathing outdoors, never turns down a treat, and is leash trained, crate trained, and baby gate trained. She is still working on her potty habits and tends to follow Peter Pan’s lead, but continues to make progress. If you would like to welcome Wendy and Peter Pan into your family, please complete an adoption application at www.ctdr.org.
