My personality

My story

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

Diesel Boy is an adorable little guy who loves being walked on a leash and wants constant attention. He's very good on walks and not bothered by squirrels along the way. Diesel Boy can get anxious when his foster dad has to leave as he doesn't like being left alone. His foster dad is working with him but Diesel is working hard at finding joy in his “me time.” His adopters will need to have a schedule that will allow his trading to continue. Diesel Boy is a velcro dog and loves to cuddle and play with his foster fur sibling. He likes to come put a toy in your hand and then play tug of war with it while play growling excitedly through this entire process. He’s quite the talker but a definitely a lover! This smart guy is a pro at potty training and he has been taking several walks a day as he is a very active dog and needs to burn off lots of energy. A physically active home is a must to keep Diesel physically and mentally healthy and happy.

Diesel Boy just turned 4 on October 31st. Happy Birthday and its all treats no tricks for this little guy! Diesel will be a great little dog for someone with an adult only home. He can be a little over zealous when he plays.

If you are interested in adopting Diesel Boy, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Diesel's adoption fee is $700.

All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Diesel will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed.

Almost every dog's veterinary expenses exceed our adoption fees; we are a non-profit.

DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia.

Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part.

DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back.

More about this rescue

We envision a time when every dachshund in Georgia has a loving home for its entire life. We believe that the welfare of our companion animals is an indication of the health of our society. We see the current welfare of our companion animals as a disease. To treat the symptoms of this disease, we rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome dachshunds in need. To treat the causes of this disease, we educate the public on compassionate dog guardianship of any breed. We want to have a deep, direct impact in a limited geographic area, rather than a small impact in a large geographic area.
