Story
Blue is a very loving dog. She is house trained and crate trained. She only sleeps in the crate at night. She loves to cuddle with her owner because i work remotely. She is great with my 9 year old son. She does show aggressive behavior towards other dogs so I would keep her away from other animals. Blue needs a home where someone has experience with dogs so they can train her appropriately. They should also be an active person and like going on walks. They should also have a fenced yard to asure she stays away from other animals and has somewhere to burn off energy. She knows the basic commands such as sit, come, go to the bathroom,go for a ride and no. I also forgot to mention Blue's favorite thing to do is go for a car ride!

Story
We’d like to formally introduce Jerome Seinfeld … or Jerry for short. Jerry is an almost 2 year old Standard Dachshund mix who came back to shelter after he was adopted as a puppy due to a change in his families situation.    Jerry is a bit timid at first especially around men but after a few sniffs and some cuddles  he becomes the sweetest boy and your typical Dachshund. Jerry gets along great with his foster siblings, but it working on some manners.    Jerry is actively working on potty training and is doing really well in his current foster. He is currently wearing belly bands but they bring him comfort.    Jerry would do best in a home with experienced dog owners who can commit to his continued training. Most of all Jerry wants a home where he will be loved. He’s playful, silly, great with kids, a total goofball and would make an amazing addition to any home! ##1971990##
