A little about them

Mojo is becoming a brave boy! This sweet Dachshund arrived from a South Texas shelter and has made wonderful progress with time and patience. He now politely approaches strangers to sniff, say hello, and see if they have treats. He loves walks, yard time, sunbathing, zoomies with a friend, and quiet one-on-one affection.

Mojo is affectionate with his person and enjoys relaxing in his crate or bed. He has never shown destructive behavior, is house-trained, does not jump on furniture or people, and is generally quiet aside from barking at perceived intruders near the fence or door. Loud sounds and fast movements can still make him skittish, so he will thrive with someone who understands traumatized dogs and respects his cat-like personality and need to choose when he is ready for interaction.
