Dillon - Dachshund / Mixed Dog For Adoption

him in to keep him safe after he appeared to have been abandoned on a rural road. His Good Sam said he sat in one spot on the road for several days and appeared to be waiting for his ‘ride’ to come back to get him. After about 4 days, he gave up and went looking for food and water, which he found in her garage! We are not really sure of Dillon’s breed mix, but he is adorable. He has a dachshund-like body (long and low) with the head of a tiny yellow lab! Dillon really deserves a family who wants to help him develop some confidence and some manners so he can be the lucky dog he is meant to be. He is very excitable and vocal when left alone for too long and will not be the best apartment resident. Dillon's wish list includes 1) a fenced yard, 2) an active family willing to play with him and teach him how to be the best boy ever and 3) people to cuddle with every day. Could that be you? Please read the rest of Dillon's bio below so you can learn more about him.

We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible. When your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if Dillon picks you too.
