  • Heathcliff"
     
    This tiny little man came to Animal Advocates from rural Georgia.  He was used for breeding and has had several litters of puppies with his wife, Gigi.  Yes, I said wife.  So before we go any further.  Heathcliff is part of a bonded pair and they MUST be adopted together.  And, there will be no more puppies for this young couple.   Heathcliff is just a happy little boy.  He loves to play with Gigi all day and they are basically inseparable mighty lizard hunters. They also like toys, but they destroy them quickly.  
 
         Heathcliff and Gigi have lived outside their whole lives.  So it is taking them some time to get use to be inside, and they 
         are in the process of being house trained.  Both of them have made excellent progress with very few accidents in the
         house.  Heathcliff and Gigi are crate trained, and have no issues being left alone.  They are very timid and shy.  But once 
         they take a break from lizard chasing they will cuddle and give kisses.  They will just need some time to get use to being 
         with humans.  They are dog and cat friendly.  They like men, women and children.  They do not have an aggressive bone
         in their little bodies and for dachshunds they are as quite as a mouse. That's because they tend to ignore all people and 
         chase lizards.  Heathcliff has never been on a leash and leash training has been a slow process.  But, in reality, Heathcliff 
         and Gigi really just want a nice fenced yard to hunt lizards. They will chase lizards for hours and could care less about 
         going for a walk. Now, Heathcliff and Gigi are runners and if they get lose that will take off very quickly.  But, they are the                           most entertaining little pair of dogs.  They tend to entertain themselves and you almost forget they are in the house.
 
         So, if you think you can give these two little energetic mini dachshunds a forever home together ......please submit an 
         adoption application. 
Both bonded dachshunds are heartworm positive (not shocked since they lived outside for a while). They have gotten the proheart 12 injectio (heartworm prevention for 1 year) and are started doxycycline for 30 days to complete there slow kill treatmen.
