Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Courtesy Listing! Please contact Southern California Dachshund Relief at: Dena@SCDR.org and not the rescue group associated with this page. The best (and preferred) method of contact for quick response is by way of e-mail. Please read the dogs’ entire bio before contacting rescue.
Lucky, a 17 pound, 18 month-old male, was found stray and taken in by a Good Samaritan. He was infested with fleas, filthy, like he’d been on the streets a long time. She took him to the vet and had him scanned, but he had no microchip. She gave him a bath, treated him for fleas, and fed him a hearty meal. He was very hungry and cleaned his bowl. She had no way to keep him in her “no pets” residence, so she asked Southern California Dachshund Rescue to take him in. In the Asian culture, the number 4 is considered a very lucky number. When we assigned a rescue tag, the next one available was number 4444, so we named him Lucky.
We believe Lucky is a Lab/Dachshund mix. He has short legs and a long body of the dachshund, but his face, fur, and ears are that of a small Labrador Retriever. He is extremely intelligent and a fast learner.
Lucky is crate-trained. He is getting a crash course in house training and doing quite well as long as he is taken outside on a schedule along with having access to the yard with a dog door. He is affectionate, silly, playful, and healthy. He needs a home with another dog that can teach him dog manners and mentor in proper dog etiquette. We recommend attending puppy obedience classes as soon as possible as well, to ensure proper socialization and respect with humans.
Applicants will need the following qualifications:
• Someone at home most of the day, stay-at-home moms or folks who work from home.
• Previous dog experience is a plus, but not essential.
• A mature (not old) female dog for mentoring, play, and companionship.
• A very secure INDOOR place for Lucky to be when no one is at home.
• Applicants must be between 30 and 66 years of age.
• No infants or toddlers, please, but we will consider families with children over 8 years old.
•
Lucky is a love-sponge with his people, however, no cats. He has a strong hunting instinct.
Lucky is neutered, fully vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. If you can give Lucky the type of home he needs, please contact Dena at (562) 694-6868 or email Dena@SCDR.org. An adoption application and home check are required.
