Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers that will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or up and down the West Coast. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well but for now please look for dogs on your coast.
For your convenience we also have PAID TRANSPORT companies that are available for a fee to get "your" new addition to your area on a guaranteed date.
Thank you for your interest in a rescue!

Myah is a vivacious little chocolate dachshund.  She has personality plus loves lots of attention.  She goes outside through the doggie door but in rain or cold will go on a peepee pad inside. She is always by my side and sleeps close to my body. She sits on my lap when I am at the computer.  She is just a love bunny.

   She has a low pitched whine when she wants something (like being scratched on her tummy).  She is sweet and listens.

 She has one blind eye due to KCS, dry eye syndrome, that was not treated by her owner.  I put dry eye drops in her eyes 3 times a day and at least two if I am away during the day.  She has no  idea she can’t see out of her eye.

 She does have a big fault, but only if you have a cat.  She hates them, well maybe not hate them but she tries to kill them.  Think it has to do with my dogs acting like a pack and killing two possums in my back yard.  Now she thinks cats are possums and has tried to bite my cats.  I have to separate them 100%.  I suppose she can be trained not to chase them.  She gets along great with my other dogs, and they all love each other, (although Myah has a special love for the two legged type, and they come first in her life-at least I do)  . 

Myah needs a home where she will get lots of love and attention.  She has blossomed here because she gets both.  She wants to sit with you and sleep with you.  An older person or couple (without cats) would be ideal for Myah. She is a wonderful pet.  I wish she was my only dog so I could give her all the attention she needs.
