Story
BORN ADVENTURER  DOB 12/14/24, estimated adult weight ~25-30 lbs. Hey there, everyone! I'm Hedy (as in Hedy Lamarr), an energetic, playful, and surprisingly cuddly Dachshund/ Labrador mix gal with mesmerizing pale green eyes. I’m a real people dog, and, when I’m tuckered out from puppy playtime, I’m happy to fall asleep cradled in my foster pawrents’ arms. I have an adventurous streak and am a confident explorer. In fact, when I was just hours old, I tried to climb through the wire crate and got my head stuck. (Hence, I was named for “Hedy” Lamarr, which started my foster pawrents’ naming the rest of my litter for vintage movie stars.) My 15-pound Basenji/ Dachshund mix momma Bruni followed my foster pawrents home from a walk; they invited her inside; and several weeks later, she birthed my #movie-star litter in foster care! My long legs, speed while running, and brown coat all indicate that perhaps my dad was a Chocolate Lab. Since he must've been bigger than Bruni, I'll likely weigh about 25-30 pounds when I'm full grown. What sets me apart from my siblings? Well, I was the first to enjoy walking on a leash. I’m the quickest to run to the door so I can come back inside. I’m an attentive listener and very intelligent, so I’ve already learned a few basic commands like “come” and “sit.” I also know what I want and don’t want to do, so I grumble more than my siblings when I’m made to move when that’s not on my agenda. Now I’m ready to bring joy and fun into my forever home. If you're a family who will welcome a born adventurer who’s always ready for playtime, I'm the gal for you! Arrange to meet me today! I promise to cover your face with mushy puppy kisses.

Story
Dani was a rescue and has been with our family for 6-7 years. She is literally the sweetest dog and we've only heard her bark once or twice over that span. She does overeat a lot and goes through her periods of shedding hair which becomes troublesome with our youngest. Even though Dani is the sweetest, we're at a point in our lives where our children, careers and extracurricular activities are taking up so much of our times that we feel very guilty for neglecting Dani. Ideally she deserves a family that can make her the center of attention and show her care that we haven't been able to.
