Looking for Love... and Maybe My Brother Too Hi friends, my name is Moose. I came into rescue with my brothers Chappy and Romeo, and for my whole life I lived side by side with Chappy. Because of that, I’m still trying to figure out this big new world without him. My foster mom thinks I could adjust as long as I have another dog sibling... but my biggest dream would be getting adopted together with Chappy. A guy can hope, right? I’m a very timid boy at first, but once I realize you’re safe and kind, I’ll stick to you like a fuzzy little shadow. When I trust you, I really trust you.Here are a few things about me:• Potty trained• Can sleep in a kennel or x-pen at night, but if I had my way I’d be snuggled under the covers with my person• Very good listener (I proved it!)• Leash walking is brand new to me, and I will need a secure harness because I can slip out of a collar• A little shy, but very loving once I warm upOne time I slipped out of my collar and gave my foster mom a bit of a scare... but I showed her what a good boy I am by coming right back when she called. She says that proves I’ve got a pretty great heart.What I’m really looking for is a patient home that understands shy pups and will give me time to blossom. Another friendly dog would help me feel safe and show me how wonderful life as a pet can be.And if that home happened to include my brother Chappy too... well, that would be the happiest ending ever. If you’re looking for a gentle, loyal companion who will love you with his whole heart, Moose might just be your guy. https://www.dakotadachshundrescue.org/info/adoption My name is Moose, I am 5 yrs young, my adoption fee is $350 plus sales tx $15.75=$365.75
