COLBY - DACHSHUND / CAVALIER KING CHARLES SPANIEL / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Dachshund / Cavalier King Charles Spaniel / Mixed (long coat). This puppy is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $300 if picked up in TN, $375 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions. With his puppy charm and gentle nature, Colby is ready to be your new best friend. He’s a 6-month-old Cavalier King Charles and Dachshund mix (best guess) weighing just 11 pounds, with the sweetest personality and an adorable underbite that only makes him more charming. He’s still a puppy, yet he’s surprisingly laid back and already showing signs of becoming a true cuddly companion. Colby loves being near his people and thrives on human companionship, but he isn’t demanding and takes everything in stride. He’s just beginning to enjoy toys, both for chewing and for snuggling, and he’s well on his way to being a couch potato in training. He rides calmly in the car, does well in his crate, and gets along wonderfully with both cats and the other dog in his foster home. Colby is still working on house training and learning that potty time belongs outside, but he’s making progress and is eager to please. He’s also still adjusting to being on a leash, though with patience and encouragement, he’ll get the hang of it. Calm, affectionate, and not at all a barker, Colby would do well in almost any home setting. He’s loving, well-adjusted, and happiest when he’s sharing life with his people, whether that means a walk around the block or curling up together on the couch. Whoever adopts Colby will be gaining a gentle, easygoing pup who’s full of love and ready to make himself right at home. Interested in adopting?
