I am a star, burning brightly, and ready to warm your heart. My name is Nova and I am a young, black and tan, long haired girl. Diamond Dachshund Rescue pull me from a shelter and I was heartworm positive but have been treated and am available for adoption.  

Let me tell you a little about myself. My foster family says I am very sweet and calm-- I just love belly rubs and cuddling. I adore sleeping on soft furniture and will happily join you there to watch tv! I've been very good about my house training and I am quickly getting used to being in a crate, as well. I don't bark very often, and when I do, I tend to bark softly. While I am adjusting, I know how to hide to keep myself safe if I feel overwhelmed. You know what else I know? I know how run out the door! I just want to know what is out there so I can't help myself and I run out! I definitely need my new family to understand that I am a little bit of a "flight risk". That said, even when I run out, I don't really want to run away-- I just want to check stuff out. Daily walks might be a good choice for a girl like me!  I don't like girl dogs and sometimes not all boy dogs either, depends on their personality. Perhaps a larger dog that I can't dominate might work or even better I would love being an only dog.  I am great with humans, submissive even! 

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.
