Look who came into rescue during the patriotic month of July.  Its Ben…Ben FRANKlin!!!  Possibly a dachshund-poodle mix (as his recently trimmed hair is soft and he doesn’t shed), this little guy is 13 pounds of pure cuteness.  He likes the outdoors, enjoys walks and following his snout to investigate different smells. He enjoys sitting next to people, having his belly rubbed, enjoying treats, giving kisses and playing with and chasing balls. Keep in mind though, that like all kids, his toys are HIS toys and he doesn't like to share! He is a good eater though he needs to be fed separate from others as his food is HIS food, sleeps quietly in the crate (or on the bed), is well behaved in the bathtub, good on the leash (using a harness), and is housebroken.  He is somewhat unpredictable around other dogs and might do best as an only dog.  He loves people and will make someone a great one dog only family pet!



 



 



Love dachshunds and not ready to adopt or circumstances won't permit having a dog?  How about being a sponsor or making a donation.  Every one of our dachshunds receives excellent medical care along with day to day food, love and housing.  Being non-profit, we rely on generous individuals like yourselves to help save these fur babies.  You can do this specifically for one dog with the sponsor button on their webpage or a general donation on our “How To Help” page.  Easy and quick through Pay Pal or your debit/credit card.  You generosity is sincerely appreciated by all and is tax deductable.  Need other ideas?  You'll find tons of them on the How to Help tab.  All contributions are tax deductable.



 




Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas is a non-profit 501(c)(3) volunteer organization with focus on rescue and adoption of pure breed Dachshunds.  All dogs are fully vetted and housed on private property.  Meetings are scheduled upon adoption approval.  Thank you for your continued support to the rescue and shelter communities!
