Daisy

Daisy is a short-haired pure dachshund who is 8 years old and 17lbs. She’s a laidback lovely who enjoys couches, naps, and snoozing pretty much anywhere. She came to us when her previous owner sadly passed, and she’s a very adaptable girl. She loves love of all kinds—pets, kisses, hugs—and is looking for a home get all the attention she so deserves. 

Environment

Daisy is crate and house trained, and even understands pee pads if she needs to. She's a quick learner who picked up the routine in her foster home within the week. She loves going on walks, doesn’t pull or tug on the leash, and equally enjoys sunny snoozes. She isn’t a flight risk and doesn’t require a fenced yard, nor is she very vocal so a home with shared walls is just fine. At most she will bark to say hello to visitors but quickly quiets back down. Her main requirement is someone who is home more often than not, she’s not used to being left alone.

Pets & People

Daisy has done amazingly in groups of dogs and would fit well in pretty much any pack. She loves all people—so long as they pet her—but she’s untested with children. We’d like to place her somewhere without small children so she can get comfy and enjoy her retirement years on her terms.

Health

Daisy is a bit of a foodie and often a couch potato. She’s currently on farmer’s dog food to help with her weight loss journey. She wants to eat everything, so you’ll need to be careful with your fingers while giving treats and she doesn’t know boundaries around human food. She’s not aggressive though and doesn’t guard her bowl. She still needs to lose a little bit of weight to benefit her health, but that can definitely be achieved with extra activity and careful portions.
