My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Adoption Area: East Tennessee

Stanley needs:
-Someone home most of the day
-Adult home or one with children over 12 years old
-A calm dog buddy
-No apartments because I may bark when left alone

Meet Stanley! Stanley is a handsome male Dachshund mix who weighs 8 pounds and is about 10 years old. This little guy wants to be your best friend. He loves snuggling under blankets, sitting on laps, and especially eating! He may be missing a few teeth, but it doesn’t slow him down. He’d be happiest with someone who is home a lot for maximum cuddle time. He gets along well with other dogs and walks well on a leash. He’s a very smart boy…..he taught himself how to use a doggie door by watching his foster siblings in only one day! He has a mild case of collapsing trachea that causes an occasional cough; it doesn’t seem to bother him much. He’s just a happy little guy!

Stanley enjoys going for car rides, short walks, and cuddling on the couch watching Netflix — what an awesome little guy! He has always lived with a dog buddy so he will probably need one in his home so when you have to go out he has a friend.

Stanley is doing well with his house training. Remember he may need some patience with transition to a new home and we will send a belly band along with him to use during this transition.

If you think a little senior gentleman might fit into your household, please submit an online application and remember to put down Stanley as your new best friend. Stanley is neutered and current on all of his vaccines and preventatives. Stanley’s adoption fee is $100.
