Colorado Dachshund Rescue is shutting down their boarding facility in Fort Collins April 28, 2010. We have been working very hard to get these homeless Dachshunds new homes, and are down to 15 Dachshunds that still need a permanent home or a foster home. Adoption fees have been reduced to $50 to help with the process of finding them homes. If you can help, contact us immediately. We have the next 2 weekends available for scheduled meet and greets, by appointment. Do not go to the address listed on our website, that is a PO Box only. Fill out the online application and we will schedule a meet and greet time for you and give you driving directions. If you do not have internet access, call us we will schedule a meet and greet time and you can fill out the paper application.

The 16th annual Weenie Roast. The Celebration of our beloved dachshunds!
This is all I have to say about puppy mills…please learn from this.
Our awesome Logo was designed by a long time Dachshund friend, Terry Pond.
Miss Martha is a breast cancer survivor. Before Martha developed breast cancer she was a show dog and a bit of a princess. Because Martha came from a long line of very healthy, well bred dachshunds, her owner felt that it was that fine not to spay her until she was 4 or 5 years old in case her breeder wanted to use her in his breeding program.
When she was 4 years old a lump was found in her mammary chain. Martha had the tumor removed and was spayed. She recovered well and did not need any extensive cancer treatment. Martha is an illustration of why it is important to have dogs spayed before their first heat cycle. Even dogs from the healthiest lineage can have health problems! However, this is not the end of Martha’s story. Could there have been another plan for her? Maybe. Martha’s owner decided to see if she could follow in her Uncle Malcolm’s foot steps and become a therapy dog. Well, Martha proved that even a princess can become a wonderful therapy dog! Martha gives her love to patients, family members and staff on the oncology unit at Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado. Her owner reports that Martha is happiest when she is visiting “her” friends at the hospital!
