We adopted our first dachshund, Rusty, 15 years ago, when my husband and I were young and active. I was a stay-at-home mom, there were kids around to keep him occupied and he was our only rambunctious dog. Sadly, he passed away about 4 years ago so last fall we adopted another dachshund, Willis. I am ashamed to say that we are one of “those” people who adopted without thinking of all the ramifications. He has turned out to be more of an independent spirit than we need right now, now that we both work full time, the kids are gone and my husband had a heart bypass last year. We have taken him to puppy classes, so he does have the basics in place but we just don’t have the drive to do the full training that he needs. I have struggled with this for a few months now and I had just decided things were going to work out but then he started attacking Sam, our Chihuahua, over treats and toys.
Willis is a good dog and a superior dachshund so if you feel you or someone you know can give him what he deserves, please contact me so we can talk about finding him a happy home. We are in the northeast Florida area. Thank you for listening, K beanieindy@yahoo.com
