Story
Mercury is an affectionate 1 year old, 20lb dachshund mix who is wants to be your forever buddy and companion! Once this snuggle bug feels comfortable, he’ll melt into your arms like butter! Mercury is on a weight gain journey and needs to put on a few pounds to get to a healthy weight. He is a good eater and should be closer to 25lbs healthily.
He’s adjusting great to the city and his foster’s home. Mercury is working on potty training and confident walking! During the day, he loves his dog bed, but especially loves being smushed into his foster’s side, or following her around the apartment. He’s very sweet to other dogs and people.
This smart boy is very food motivated, and already knows a lot of commands/words in Spanish! We’re working on teaching him English for things he knows like sit, let’s go, etc, as well as new words that he’s picked up quickly so far. He loves to share how he feels with his expressive tail and giving kisses!
Mercury is looking for an adopter who loves snuggles, patience and especially sharing treats.
Mercury is an absolute angel and he can’t wait to meet you!
Vaccinated for rabies, DA2PP, and bordetella. Neutered, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Mercury tested positive for ehrlichia and is being treated with 30 days of doxycycline. Current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
