Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund (short coat). Adoption Fee: $325. Please ensure you understand and can meet the needs of this dog before applying. Energy level: low Potty training: mostly trained, can be stubborn Fenced yard: yes Shared walls: not suitable (vocal) People: all Dogs: all Overview Meet Hannah, a nine-year-old smooth red miniature dachshund with a playful streak, a snuggly side, and a dachshund's trademark opinion about everything. She weighs 9 lbs and is, in a word, a character. Hannah came to Little Paws following a divorce and is looking for a calm, settled home where she can be herself. She's easygoing at her core, but she has personality to spare and will make sure you know when something is worth commenting on. Environment Hannah is a low-energy homebody who is happiest when there's a cozy spot and a person nearby. She loves walks and enjoys having a fenced yard to roam and potter around in. Her crate is her happy place, and she's very content left to her own devices when needed. She is vocal, particularly when welcoming people or reacting to the world outside, so a home without shared walls will suit her best. She's quiet in the car with no radius restrictions. Pets & People Hannah is great with people and does fine with strangers, though she'll make sure to announce their arrival first. She gets along well with all dogs and is relaxed around food, with no guarding or pushiness at mealtimes. She should move to a home that has another dog, or with her fostermate, Hooper. She is funny, quirky, playful, and snuggly in equal measure. She's the kind of dog who keeps things interesting. Hannah is currently being fostered alongside Hooper, a 13-year-old male dachshund, and the two get along very well. They would be happy to go to the same home if someone was open to two. Location Hannah is available for adoption from Haverhill, MA. Please email fosternorthlittlepawsdr with any questions or complete an adoption application at the button above. The adoption fee for Hannah is $325.

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.
