Biography
Dusty and Chip are two young dachshund puppies who were born into rescue as their mama was being transported from Texas. They will need to be adopted together so that they can have a companion their age and size. They are very sweet, playful and highly energetic. Adopters should be willing to work on all the basics including housetraining, general house manners and walking on a leash and understand that doxies are not pocket pooches but rather big dogs in a little package! Because they are so young, they need an "at-home" adopter so they can grow up feeling secure. These puppies cannot be left for long hours. They will need a fenced in yard because we all know doxies are hounds who love to investigate, dig holes and chase bunnies, birds, squirrels, mice and Mr. Groundhog if he is around! Absolutely no invisible or electric fences. Adopters must be willing to take them to puppy obedience class and provide daily walks and stimulation so they can continue to be properly socialized. No children or bigger dogs, please. They could easily be hurt because they are so small. They will get their rabies and distemper shots and be neutered before adoption. Applicants must be close enough for a home visit. ****Applicant must be willing to drive to Ellicott City, Maryland (10 miles south of Baltimore) to meet and adopt Dusty and Chip. Their total adoption fee is $700.****
