Energy level: medium Potty training: in progress Fenced yard: preferred but not required Shared walls: suitable People: all ages, best with calmer children Dogs: prefers small/calm dogs (no big dogs) Other: no cats, strong prey drive Overview Looking for a spirited companion who's ready to wag her way into your heart? Ryce Puddin' might be the perfect addition to your family. Ryce Puddin' is a gorgeous long-haired chocolate and tan piebald dapple miniature dachshund who weighs 13 lbs and is about 7 years old. She came to Little Paws when her previous owner had to move to a smaller place and worked long hours—they wanted someone with more time to shower her with the love and attention she deserves. This sweet girl's tail is always wagging, especially when it's time for walks or meals. She's an active, happy little doxie who radiates pure joy at the simple pleasures in life. Environment Ryce Puddin' has a medium activity level and loves her daily walks and playtime. She's working on her potty training and does well going outside, though she still has occasional accidents indoors. She tries to use the pads but hasn't quite mastered them yet. A fenced yard would be wonderful for helping her complete her outdoor potty training journey, though it's not required if you're committed to regular walks. This girl absolutely loves her crate—it's her happy place! She'll go in on her own at bedtime and when you step out. Her previous owner crated her for up to 12 hours, so she's comfortable being alone, though we'd love to see her in a home where someone can spend more time with her. Because she's quite active for her age and loves to jump on and off furniture, she should be crated or in a playpen when left alone to keep her safe. This food-motivated girl loves her meals and treats! At breakfast and dinner, she waits patiently for her bowl with her tail wagging in pure happiness. She's very food motivated, which will make training a breeze, and she takes treats gently without being snatchy—though she'll definitely let you know she'd like more. Ryce Puddin' is a champion walker who loves her leash adventures. She's quiet enough for homes with shared walls and travels well in the car. Pets & People Ryce Puddin' is wonderful with people of all ages and does great with kids—her foster home has two boys aged 8 and 14 whom she adores. That said, she's not a fan of constant running and will bark if children are racing around the house, so she'd be best with calmer kids who can appreciate her sweet nature. When meeting new people, she may bark initially but warms up within minutes once she's had a chance to sniff and get acquainted. With other dogs, Ryce Puddin' has some preferences. She's not a fan of large dogs—she pulls and barks when she sees bigger pups. She does much better with small, calm dogs. In her foster home, she took a little time to warm up to her foster sister (a 12-year-old terrier mix) but now they're good friends who go on walks together. She also loves her tiny dachshund foster sister Izzy, and they sometimes snuggle together. She's been fine with most of the foster home's visiting dogs, though she did grumble at a Pug who got too close. Ryce Puddin' does not like cats and has a strong prey drive, so a cat-free home is a must but in a cat-like twist to her personality: she's not particularly cuddly, she appreciates affection but on her own terms. Location Ryce Puddin' is available for adoption from Miami, FL. She will be spayed and have a dental on 2/20.

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.
