Sugar, a charming 13 year old mini Dachshund, is like a little sunbeam that warms your heart. Initially shy, she blossoms into your devoted companion once she gets to know you. Her loyalty knows no bounds, and she’ll follow you around like a faithful shadow.

Environment

Sugar is house trained and crate trained, but she doesn’t like to be in the crate if you’re home. She’s a very clever girl and quickly learned to ring the bell to go outside after watching the resident dogs. She needs to be on a regular schedule and go outside every 4-5 hours. With her tiny tail perpetually wagging, Sugar has explored every nook and cranny of her foster home. Her curiosity knows no bounds and she has adapted well to her free reign within the house. She’s content without attempting to climb furniture or tackle stairs.

Pets & People

Sugar is great with adults and children, she’s a very sweet and loyal girl. She does bark when there are visitors but she’s fine once she sniffs them out. She would likely have no trouble settling into a home with other dogs. She needs feeding separately otherwise she will try to help the others finish their food. 

Health

Sugar is a little overweight so she needs to watch the treats and stick to her regular diet and exercise. She has been working on losing weight, but she is very passionate about eating and loves her snacks. She has started to get the zoomies in the morning which will surely help her lose another few pounds.
