You get more hound for the pound with a Dachshund!
Betcha can’t resist this pup! doggie ping!
I’m happy that the guy took him to the proper rescue group. That was the best choice he could make since he was in no position to keep the puppy.
We rescued a dachshund mix a couple years ago. She was (and still is) very cute, but she can be a PITA sometimes.

I had two mini doxies in my younger days, Bismarck and Heidi. One a black and tan, one red.
I loved those little monsters!
Fortunate puppy.
We just adopted a precious little girl-pup some wicked fool had abandoned in the cold. She was halfway to being starved—could not have weighed more that three pounds—and clearly was used to being screamed at and hit with sticks or brooms. Poor baby! I have fantasies of finding the person who treated her like this and doing the same to her. How anyone could raise a hand to a tiny puppy like this is inconceivable.
In a way, though, I’m grateful that this irresponsible and cruel owner dumped her, because now she’s making us happy. She is surrounded by love from me, my kids, and our other dog, who thinks she’s his daughter and lets her chew his face off.
I read this to my Pitador (a rescue) and my eleven month old Great Dane (compensated adoption) and both were very happy for the Doxie, so happy they asked me to invite him for a visit.
Many dogs are more humane than some humans.
Dachshunds are the very best. Soulful, smart, wily, endearing, full of themselves. This is just maddening to read. I’m glad it had a happy ending, but it should never have happened, and the thought that other pups might have been dumped with him haunts me.
