Frank is a recent arrival in Dakota Dachshund Rescue, he is just beginning his journey to learn to be a house pet. Frank is very sweet and follows his foster mom all over. He loves to go out and run with his foster brother and sisters. His ideal situation is sitting next to his foster mom and napping. He goes into an expen area with his foster sisters and brothers at night and has gotten use to that. Initially, he paced and cried a little but now seems to know the routine. When given the opportunity he would prefer to snuggle in bed with his human. It took him a few days to eat once he arrived at his foster home but now he gets excited and wags his tail when he knows it is time to eat. Frank went on a camping trip and settled right into the camping life. He does not do well on a leash but found riding around in the puppy stroller was kinda cool. Frank has very few accidents in the house. He is very good about following the pack outside in our fenced yard weand doing his business. I have used a belly band on him and he never soils the belly band. At this point I am not using belly bands on him and as far as I know he has been good. Frank is truly a great little dog and his perfect home would be someone who is around a lot or has another dog for him to hang with while his human is gone. Also, being able to snuggle with his person at night would be his priority! Frank is 6 yrs young, he weighs 11 pounds, his adoption fee is $350 plus sales tax $15.75=$365.75 My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental and microchipping.

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.
