Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund (short coat). *FOSTER HOME NEEDED APRIL 15* Junior is a 2 year old Daschund that weighs about 11-12 lbs. He has the opportunity to catch a ride on a transport coming to MN on April 15, if we have a foster home for him He is a little bit special needs as he has some fears of some people from being mistreated. He maybe snappy, out of intimidation and fear. We don't know exactly what that will look like until we get him here. Will he immediately calm down after receiving love and stability? Will he always need to be slightly managed when new people come around? We’re not sure! We have seen so many miracles in rescue with dogs who have had abusive or neglectful pasts and who learn to overcome their issues once in a stable, secure environment. We are looking for a committed, soft place for Junior to land - someone who is savvy to this kind of issue, and/or willing to work with him. A home with another dog would be a huge bonus as that can help dogs with fear issues, feel more secure. If you don't have another dog, we can still talk! We also offer foster to adopt, if you seem like the right fit for the dog If you would like to learn more about Junior, please submit an interest form on our website: redemptionroadrescue.rescuegroups/forms/ If you are viewing this listing on PETFINDER there is often MORE INFO ON and MORE PICS OF the animal DIRECTLY ON OUR WEBSITE. redemptionroadrescue.rescuegroups redemptionroad.mngmail .facebook/RedemptionRoadRescue All animals fully vetted appropriate for age: spayed/neutered, rabies vaccine, DHPP vaccine, 4DX test (8 months or older), microchipped with lifetime registration, dewormed, flea/tick prevention, heartworm prevention. *Since we typically don't know a rescue dogs actual genetics, their breed and estimated size when grown on their bio is just an educated guess based on information and observations we have.*

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.
