Meet Chappy – Your Window-Watching Sidekick! Hi there! My name is Chappy, and I’m a handsome dachshund gentleman looking for my forever home. My dream scenario would be getting adopted with my brother Moose, because we’ve been together our whole lives and we make a pretty great team. Having a dog sibling to run and play with is one of my favorite things!I’m a good listener (my foster mom says so!), and I love a good snuggle when it’s time to relax. When my people are sleeping or away, I do just fine hanging out in my kennel or x-pen. I’ve even had free rein of the house and proved myself to be a very trustworthy boy. No chewing, no trouble, just good manners. I’m still figuring out this whole leash thing, but I’m trying my best and getting better every day. I do need a harness for walks because, like my brother, I’m a bit of a dachshund escape artist with regular collars. I do require a fenced yard to keep me safe.One of my favorite hobbies is perching on the back of the couch and watching the world go by through the window. It’s the perfect spot for neighborhood patrol duty. The important facts about me:

Potty trained
Loves other dogs
Snuggle professional
Trustworthy in the house
Certified Very Good Boy (according to my foster mom)

If you’re looking for a sweet, loyal little companion... or even better, a dynamic duo with Moose and me... I might just be your guy. https://www.dakotadachshundrescue.org/info/adoption My name is Chappy, I am 5 yrs young, my adoption fee is $350 plus sales tax $15.75 =$365.75
