Description
Dog Breed: Dachshund. Mila girl is on the hunt for her forever home! Mila is an adorable 11-month-old, 12-pound girl who is sweet, playful, affectionate and loves her people. She adores her foster family, does well with the kids and dog in her home, and LOVES playing in the grass. Mila is also a sensitive girl who can be nervous around new people and dogs and when left alone. When she feels overwhelmed, she may bark or react, so she needs a patient family willing to help her continue building confidence. She doesn’t need someone who can devote hours a day to training—she needs consistency, patience and a willingness to work her training into everyday life. Slow introductions, predictable routines and positive reinforcement will go a long way. Mila would love: • A patient, predictable home • Kids 8+ • A calm, non-reactive dog or life as your one-and-only • A yard for her beloved grass! • Someone willing to give her time to trust and blossom Mila doesn’t need a perfect dog trainer. She just needs someone willing to help her become the confident little dog we know she can be.

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.
