ur website at www.dachshundpaws.org Tessa is one special little lady! She was turned into the shelter when her owner could no longer take care of her. She is supposed to be about 9-years old, but she acts half that age! She was actually pulled out of the shelter by myself, with the intention of keeping her as a lap dog for me personally. What I found though was that Miss Tessa is full of spunk and would rather play fetch and squeak her toys than sit around and cuddle all day. Don’t get me wrong, she will sleep on my Lap or next to someone on the couch most of the evening, but she is not a couch potato most of the time. When I look at Tessa, she makes me smile and giggle and it tells me that she has so much love and fun to share with someone who wants a playful, loving companion. She will greet you everytime you get home with a plush toy in her mouth, without fail ❤️ She loves loves loves going for a walk! As soon as you grab the leash, she is ready to go. Tessa is great with other dogs and would probably really enjoy another playful little dog! She has seen the cats and has thought about taking chase, but when they make a move to her, she runs the other way... Tessa has had a full dental, been groomed, and got a clean bill of health from the vet. She has been spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $250. We do not have a kennel or facility to visit, all dogs are kept in foster homes until their forever homes are found. Adoption Process: Once an approved application is on file, we will then set up a home visit. At that time we will bring the dog to the home in which you will all be sharing. We ask the entire family to be there that day. If we all agree on the placement, then the dog will stay with you that day. Please visit our website at www.dachshundpaws.org

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
