Story
Meet Australia! 🐾 1 year • 11 lbs • Long-haired Mini Dachshund Mix Australia is a tiny ball of fluff with a big heart and an even bigger love for her people. She’s a total Velcro pup who wants to be wherever you are—lap included! When left alone she’ll cry and howl for a bit, but she eventually settles. She’s active, playful, and full of puppy energy. Australia loves playing tag with younger dogs and would do great with another fun, active dog. She respects senior pups—unless they try to steal her human’s lap, which brings out her adorable little jealous streak. She has a healthy appetite, is mostly house-trained, does great with nail trims, and isn’t a fan of the crate when left alone. Australia will thrive with someone who can offer attention, structure, and plenty of love. If you want a snuggly shadow dog with a playful side, she’s your girl!

Story
Meet Rome 💙 Rome is a 6-week-old Dachshund/Terrier mix weighing 3 lbs 6 oz, and he’s as sweet as they come. With his gentle personality and adorable puppy charm, it’s impossible not to fall in love. His mama is an 18-pound Dachshund mix, so Rome is expected to stay on the smaller side when grown. Like all young pups, Rome is learning the ropes and working hard on his puppy skills and house training. He’s curious, affectionate, and ready to grow into a wonderful companion with a family who will guide him through puppyhood with patience and love. If you’re looking for a sweet little pup to add joy to your home, Rome may be the perfect match. 🐾💙

Story
Meet Candy! 🍬 Candy is as sweet as her name and just as delightful once you get to know her. This petite 2-year-old wirehaired dachshund mix may be a bit shy when first meeting new people, but with patience and kindness, she blossoms into the most loving, devoted companion. Candy would do best in a calm, understanding home where she can build confidence at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she loves with her whole heart—especially when it comes to snuggling! She’s fully house trained, enjoys leash walks, and is a joy to have around the house. She gets along well with other dogs and cats, making her a great fit for many households. Candy has made wonderful progress in her foster home and now happily greets her people with excitement when they walk through the door. And if you want to win her over quickly, chicken treats are the way to her heart! If you’re looking for a low-maintenance, affectionate companion who will happily curl up beside you, Candy may be the perfect match.

Story
Meet Milan 💙 Milan is a 6-week-old Dachshund/Terrier mix and the biggest of the litter, weighing in at 4 lbs 10 oz. Don’t let his “big puppy” status fool you—he’s just as sweet and lovable as he is adorable. His mama is an 18-pound Dachshund mix, so Milan is still expected to be a smaller-sized dog once fully grown. Milan is a gentle, affectionate boy who is already working hard on his puppy skills and starting his house-training journey. He’s curious, cuddly, and ready to learn, making him a wonderful fit for a family prepared for all the joys of puppyhood. If you’re looking for a sweet pup with a little extra to love, Milan might be your perfect match. 🐾💙
