Dachshund (long coat) : : Female (spayed) : : Adult : : Small
Scarlett came to Sioux Falls Canine Rescue after being released from a commercial breeding facility. Scarlett would do best in a home with another small breed dog but no large breed dogs as she gets quite nervous around them. Scarlett is cautious around people (especially strangers) so she will need a patient family that will continue to help her come out of her shell. She is a perfect little lap dog and really enjoys being snuggled up with her foster mom. Scarlett should go to an adult only home or a home with respectful children 10 years of age or older. ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS:
Scarlett has been spayed and received a dental cleaning, she is up to date on vaccinations, preventatives, heartworm & tick tested, and microchipped. Scarlett weighs 11 pounds, and her adoption fee is $600 plus tax. More about ScarlettGood with Some Dogs (No large dogs), Good with Cats, Good with Older/Considerate Kids Only, Requires a yard *All SFCR dogs are current on age-appropriate vaccinations (rabies, distemper, bordetella, and lepto), spayed/neutered (if at least 6 months of age), tested for heartworm & tick-borne disease, receive dentals if needed, are started on preventatives for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and microchipped. Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly. |
