Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund. Adoption Fee: 500. Meet Tuukka – Senior Dachshund, Professional Commentator! Tuukka is an 11–12-year-old dachshund with a long body, a big heart, and lots to say about the world around him. If you’ve ever wanted a dog who will happily share his opinions on meal times, walk schedules, and whether the mail carrier can be trusted—Tuukka is your guy. He’s wonderfully dog, cat, and kid friendly, making him an easy fit for a busy household or a calm one. Tuukka loves being part of the family and thrives when he’s included in daily life, whether that means cozy couch time or supervising the neighborhood from the window. While he may be a senior, Tuukka still has plenty of personality and charm packed into his little dachshund frame. His vocal nature just means he’s expressive, engaged, and always ready for a conversation (or a snack). Beneath the commentary is a sweet, affectionate companion who truly loves his people. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick with a sense of humor, a loving heart, and a running narration of your day, Tuukka is ready to move in and make himself at home. Adopt Tuukka—because life is better with a dog who speaks his mind! He is neutered, microchipped, up to date vaccines and heartworm prevention as well as had a dental cleaning with many needed extractions as of December 10th. His adoption fee is $300.

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.
