LELA - DACHSHUND / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Dachshund / Mixed (short coat). Introducing Lela, affectionately known as Squeak – the queen of tiny wiggles, forehead wrinkles, and big personality in a little body. This 12-pound dynamo is equal parts heart-melter and sass machine, and she’s one of those foster pups you fall for fast. Lela is thriving in foster care: Sleeps through the entire night Kennel trained Doing great with potty training (she just needs a little help managing water intake – girl loves to hydrate!) Learning fast and eager to please She’s a social butterfly who absolutely adores everyone – big dogs, small dogs, and especially kids. Her affection knows no bounds, and she’s often found snuggled up in someone’s lap or happily accepting belly rubs. She’ll seek out attention, lean in for cuddles, and then melt right into your arms. Lela’s also surprisingly bold! She has no idea she’s little and can hold her own with the big dogs. She’s smart and a bit sassy – when she’s excited, she scrunches up her little face and gives the cutest bark you’ve ever heard. She’s got a prey drive and loves sniffing out critters or chasing bugs, so a fenced yard or leash walks are a must. She’s food motivated in a gentle way – she’ll often let other dogs eat first, so she does best in a home where someone makes sure she’s getting her fair share. She’s learning commands quickly and gets the concept of “no” really well. Some of her favorite things: Chewing bones Zooming and showing off her new tricks (she learned stairs and now proudly does laps) Playing with kids Being held and loved on Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue.
