Abner had a life with another little dog, one day that dog escaped from the yard never to be found, about a week later Abner got out of the yard, a neighbor girl went to pick him up, and her bit her.  The owners ex-husband took Abner to the vet to euthanize him, but the vet refused and called rescue.  The ex-husband also told the vet that his ex-wife would hit and kick Abner.  Well Abner doesn’t do well with strangers, but once he knows you he is a great little dog.  Abner has had to sore neck episodes, that responded to crate rest and steriods.  He has had no issues in 18 months.

This Colorado Sweetheart is a Colorado Dachshund Rescue friend. All of our dogs, are spay and neutered, up to date on vaccines and are heartworm negative and on preventative. Most also have a dental done. We rehome close to 100 Dachshunds each year, and save many of them from certain death at local shelters. By working with local shelters, we are able to give them a second chance to find their new forever homes.
