I’m a miniature wire-haired Dachshund and I’m so miniature my foster mom and dad sometimes call me Tiny. They also call me Taz because I’m very vocal. I snarl and growl when I play with my foster sister. I’m just getting brave enough to play with my foster brother. He’s three times my weight. I especially like to jump in when my foster sister is wrestling with him. Then when she least expects it I pounce on her! I can wrestle all day… until I need a nap. I like doing zoomies with my foster sister in the house and especially in the yard. I like to chew on sticks. I don’t know why, but what else are they there for? I’m starting to respond to, “Come, Cookie, come!” I’ll come running across the yard to my foster Dad. He’s my person, but I like everyone. I’m not shy! I’m having a slow start at house training, but I’m pretty reliable using my piddle pads. I’m just learning to walk on lead. I don’t like it. Especially when we start our walk. I’m hoping you might be my furever home and that I might have new brothers and sisters to play with! I promise I’ll love you back and cuddle whenever you want!I am a local adoption only until I am spay at 5 1/2-6 months of age. I do require a fenced yard to keep me safe as I do not walk on a harness and leash and I do not know any recall. I am full of energy and love to run chase and play. I do not understand the dangers of cars and roads. I am 4 months old, my adoption fee is $600 plus sales tax $27= $627 My adoption fee helps cover all of my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, 3 DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental if needed and microchipping.

Overview:
The Dachshund, affectionately known as the "wiener dog," is a fascinating breed originating in Germany, primarily bred to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals. Their most distinctive physical characteristic is their long, low-slung body and short, muscular legs, a feature perfectly adapted for tunneling. They come in three coat types – smooth, longhaired, and wirehaired – and various sizes, from miniature to standard. Temperamentally, Dachshunds are known for being courageous, curious, and often quite playful, with a surprising amount of energy. While they are intelligent, their independent nature can make training a delightful challenge. Their small size and relatively low exercise requirements make them well-suited for apartment living, and they can be wonderful companions for families, though early socialization is key, especially with children and other pets. Regarding health, their unique body shape predisposes them to intervertebral disc disease (IVDD), so careful handling and weight management are crucial.
