This is Salem Lee! He's a cute chocolate, short-haired dachshund. He weighs 12 pounds, so he's a pretty small guy. Salem is only 8 months old, just a puppy! DDRTX pulled Salem from the pound in Waco, Texas, the same place where we found Cinnamon Bunz. As you can see from the video, Salem and Cinnamon Bunz have the same birth defect with their feet, where they don't have bones in their toes. Their legs are also a little crooked. But, this doesn't stop Salem from running, jumping, playing, and having a great time! He gets along great with other dogs, is fine with cats, and is fine with teenagers. Once you meet him, you'll be hooked by those big brown eyes. He's a cutie, and he knows it!

Love dachshunds and not ready to adopt or circumstances won't permit having a dog?  How about being a sponsor or making a donation.  Every one of our dachshunds receives excellent medical care along with day to day food, love and housing.  Being non-profit, we rely on generous individuals like yourselves to help save these fur babies.  You can do this specifically for one dog with the sponsor button on their webpage or a general donation on our “How To Help” page.  Easy and quick through Pay Pal or your debit/credit card.  You generosity is sincerely appreciated by all and is tax deductable.  Need other ideas?  You'll find tons of them on the How to Help tab.  All contributions are tax deductable.
