Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund (short coat). Meet Mochi Chip, he is brand new to rescue so we are still learning about him, but so far we can tell you he is an adorable little guy with a spunky personality! Mochi had a loving home, unfortunately due to conflicting schedules he was spending too much time in his crate. His owner recognized he deserved better and now he is looking for a family that can give him the love and attention he needs. He’s shy at first but seems to warm up quickly. He is 1.5 years old and hasn’t seen our vet yet but he is probably around 12-13 lbs. He still needs to get neutered and his shots up to date so we will update with more information soon. In the meantime put in your application if you’d like to meet Mochi! Please see FAQs for current adoption fees. DDRTX only adopts in Central/South Texas. Email: ddrtxinfogmail Primary Website: .DDRTX

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.
