Hoagie, dachshund
Hoagie is a charming male dachshund puppy staying at Oregon Dachshund Rescue Inc.
No other pets please: Hoagie is looking for family without other dogs or cats. Oregon Dachshund Rescue Inc. recommends Hoagie be placed in a home without small children. He has been vaccinated. Good news: He is already house-trained.
Notes from Hoagie's caretakers:
Hoagie should be adopted by a woman as he doesn't seem to like men. He loves to go on walks and play tug-of-war. He's very smart and already knows many tricks, including sit, shake, and find your tail. He was a puppy who lived with a homeless man in a car, so doxie savvy persons only apply please. Hoagie is loving and obedient; he just needs the right home with a momma who is willing to work with him. He is still a pup, so he has a chance at a good life with many years of love and cuddles to give.

Comet, dachshund
Comet is a male dachshund puppy currently residing at Oregon Dachshund Rescue Inc.
No other pets please: Comet is looking for a household without other dogs or cats. Oregon Dachshund Rescue Inc. thinks Comet will do best in a home without small children. He is already house-trained. His vaccinations are up to date.
Here's what Comet's friends at Oregon Dachshund Rescue Inc. think of him:
Comet was just saved from The Humane Society. He is only 17 months old and, while crate-trained, he would benefit from some puppy training. He really wants to please his owner. He has some mild separation anxiety, but when he gets enough exercise and walks, the anxiety lessens. Like most pups, he needs exercise and work on barking and leash training. Comet gets very possessive and may nip around toys, so it may be necessary to avoid toys.

Halo, Wheaten terrier and Norwich terrier mix
Halo is a charming female Wheaten terrier and Norwich terrier puppy being cared for at Pound to Posh Dog Rescue.
Halo gets along well with children, cats or dogs. She has all her shots.
Halo's current caretakers say:
Halo is as sweet as sweet can be. She is a terrier mix and will be about 12 pounds when fully grown. She loves everybody.
