HIGHWAY STEVE - DACHSHUND / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Dachshund / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Meet Highway Steve! This cute boy was found running on a main road for several days, refusing to let people rescue him. Finally he was hungry enough and had enough of living in the rain that he let someone snatch him up. When Steve made it to Adopt A Pit Rescue, his foster momma jumped into action, and got all his matted, wet, dirty and filth covered hair off him. And under all that was the most precious little boy! Steve is incredibly loyal, he is playful, great with other dogs, cats, kids and loves to be outside doing yard work. He currently lives on a farm where he follows his foster family everywhere. Never letting them out of his sight. He enjoys golf carts escorts on his bed and car rides. Steve is crate trained and is working really hard at potty training. We believe that Steve was an outside dog the entire first part of his life. But he is adjusting well and loves to lay in his people laps or snuggle under a nest of blankets. Steve is believed to be a Dachshund mix and 1-2 years old. He will make a very loving companion for any family! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.
