Reggie, dachshund

Reggie is a male dachshund dog currently housed at Nebraska Dachshund Rescue.

Reggie is happy to keep company with children, dogs or cats. Have no fear: He has already been house-trained. His vaccinations are up to date, and he's neutered.

Notes from Reggie's caretakers:

Reggie is a 2-year-old boy that came to rescue because of a fractured jaw caused by a Great Pyrenees that bit his snout. He was in a vet's office in Oklahoma and his family did not have the resources to fix him, so we stepped up and took on the challenge. He is a super good boy, loves people, other dogs and will make a great fit to the perfect family when he's all healed up.
