09/30/2014 Nettie and Manny were returned today to PRBJ. The owners huband passed away and she could not care for them by herself. They are both so sweet. Per the owner, they love children and would do best in a home with kids. They are both housebroken, love to be bathed, happy/playful and love to go on walks.
Per the owner they are to be adopted together, since they have been together forever. They are both up to date and available for adoption/fostering.
Nettie and her buddy Manny were surrendered after their owner died and the family was not able to care for them properly. Nettie is an outgoing typical yappy Dachshund. She is really a sweet girl and is looking for a great home that will love and cherish her. Nettie and Manny are really bonded and have to be adopted together.
According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Dachshund (pronounced dak sund) originated in Germany many hundreds of years ago. "Dachs" is the word for badger. The Dachshund was bred to hunt and follow these animals to earth, gradually becoming highly evolved, with shortened legs to dig the prey out and go down inside the burrows. Smaller Dachshunds where bred to hunt hare and stoat. Dachshunds have many "terrier" characteristics. They are versatile and courageous dogs and have been known to take on foxes and otters, besides badgers. Lively and affectionate; proud and bold, almost rash. Tenacious. Can be willful and clownish. Curious and mischievous, they are very clever and may attempt to train the owner rather than allow the opposite. Devoted to his family, some fanciers feel the long-haired variety is calmer than the other two types. The wire-haired variety is more outgoing and clown-like. All are slightly difficult to train. Dachshunds are good dogs to travel with. They are best with older, considerate children and are moderately protective. These little dogs like to bark (their barks are surprisingly loud for their size) and are compulsive diggers. They are generally okay with other pets, however, they can be jealous, irritable, obstinate and very quick to bite. Sometimes they will refuse to be handled. They should not be over fed, for this breed tends to gain weight quickly. They have a life expectancy of 12-15 years.
