Chicken**8 Year old Long Haired Dachshund**18.5 POUNDS**COURTESY LISTING** Chicken is being fostered in the Richmond, VA area. If you are interested in both Chicken and her companion, Fiona, please contact Jaime Morrison at jaimesmorrisonn@gmail.com or 7168125700. From a friend of the dogs: Bonded Pair Needing a Loving home Meet Fiona and Phoebe - affectionately known as Chicken. These two sweet girls are looking for a forever home together after the unexpected passing of their beloved owner. Chicken is an 8-year-old mini long-haired Dachshund with a heart full of love. She is a total snuggle bug who adores being close to her people. Though she is deaf, and mostly blind, she gets around beautifully and doesn't let it slow her down. Chicken is curious, spunky, and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, children, and everyone she meets. Fiona and Chicken have spent their entire lives side by side, and their bond is unbreakable. They are seeking a loving home where they can stay together, ideally with a fenced-in yard and experienced dog owners who will give them the care and stability they deserve. Could you be the one to give this devoted pair their next chapter filled with love, comfort, and adventure? Fiona is also listed under the MOMSVA shelter on this website. Both Chicken and Fiona are UTD on shots/vaccines, spayed, and fully vetted. If you are interested in both Chicken and her companion, Fiona, please contact Jaime Morrison at jaimesmorrisonn@gmail.com or 7168125700. **COURTESY LISTING**

Story
  Meet Chili — a tiny spark with a heart the size of a bonfire. At just 13 months-old and a petite 8 lbs., Chili is what we lovingly call a "pocket companion" with big-time sweetness. Likely a rat terrier/Chihuahua/Dachshund mix, a little spunky curiosity wrapped in a velvety-soft cuddlebug. Her default setting? Happy. Always. Chili is the kind of dog who seems to have skipped the "stranger danger" phase and gone straight to "best friends forever." She gets along beautifully with every dog she meets and carries herself with a gentle, easygoing charm that makes her instantly lovable. Though not tested, she would likely do fine with cats or children. If there's a lap nearby, she'll find it. If there are kisses to give, she's already delivering them. And if treats are involved... well, she's suddenly your most attentive audience. There's something extra special about Chili's temperament. She has a calm, affectionate presence that makes you wonder if she might have a future as a therapy dog. She doesn't just sit with you, she settles you. Chili is house-trained, but still needs a regular schedule and thrives with consistency. If you're looking for a loyal little shadow, a professional snuggler, and a daily dose of joy wrapped in 8 lbs. of love, Chili is ready to spice up your life in the sweetest way possible. You can see more of Chili in her online album at   http://www.ImageEvent.com/newrattitude/chili If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info.September 23, 2026, 1:08 pm

Story
I have had her since she was a puppy. She belonged to my wife, before we met in 2010. My wife passed away in 2023. I remarried last year and my current wife has medical issues and my mother who is 83 has just been diagnosed with kidney cancer. Between the medical issues and Dr. Appointments with my wife and mother as well as my work schedule I don't have the time to dedicate to her. I also will be happy to continue to provide food and medical expenses. I just want her to go to a good home where she will be loved and can bring lots of happiness to a great family. She is a snuggle baby.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.OSKAR Breed: smooth dachshund Age: 8 years Weight: 15 pounds Adoption Fee: $375 Vetting Status: neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, heartworm negative and maintained on preventatives, recent dental ~~~~~ OSKAR is a sweet & sassy wiener who is looking to settle into a furever home.   He is a professional snuggler & loves most humans, just no small ones please!   Oskar's hobbies include sleeping under covers, sunning himself on the deck, watching TV & batting his BBE's (big brown eyes) at you for any snacks you may want to share?   Canine minions are cool and chilln' with his foster fur-brother is fun. However, very large dogs or hyper-happy alpha types who want to be all up in his face are not Oskar's cup of tea.  Oskar did have some injuries from his prior life when he came to rescue, but has fully recovered & ready to go home. His canine dentist (ok, vet) also says his teeth are in great shape.    He is housetrained and leash trained, loves to go on walks, & ride in the car.   Oskar is okay with crates, but much prefers hanging around the house & would LOVE to snuggle with you in the "big bed" at night if allowed.    Oskar would be suited to apartment living provided you agree to carrying HRH (his royal hound-ness) up & down any stairs, as all nobility should be!     P.S. If you think OSKAR is the dog for you, please fill out an adoption application today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  OSKAR  is available for adoption through K-9 Rescue of the  Eastern Shore.   An adoption process is required to include filling out an online adoption application available at the following link --  https://www.k9rescuees.org/info/adoption  ` Veterinary and personal reference checks, and a home visit/meet-n-greet are required PRIOR to being approved to adopt.   The time frame for completing this process depends largely on how quickly references respond, your vet office is able to speak to us (some want written permission first), your landlord or HOA (if applicable) confirms their approval for a pet, & how your schedule aligns with that of our volunteer(s) for the Home Visit. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PLEASE NOTE ~ All of our rescue members are volunteers with many obligations. While we may not be capable of immediate response, we will respond to all inquiries and application submissions as soon as possible. Thank you for thinking adoption! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #dachshundsofinstagram, #adoptme, #brokennomore, #sausagedogVisit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 13, 2026, 12:04 am
