Dazzle - Dachshund and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Dazzle was brought into a shelter with 2 other siblings. He definitely has had a rough start to life. He and the siblings were listed on the Mayday list, which is one step closer to euthanasia because no one expressed interest in adopting, and they needed some one-on-one attention. He is one of those rescues who will take the 3-3-3 rescue rule. He would benefit from a patient home, and even one with another dog to follow their cues. Luckily, he is starting to show a lot of affection towards his foster like walking up to her, wagging his tail, and showing excitement to see her. He does struggle with pets which could be a sign of animal abuse from his past. He will allow pets but he is so scared he doesn't know what to do! His foster is petting him regularly throughout the day and he loves treats! We have had several dogs like Dazzle, and with a little TLC they learn safety and love!

He's about 9 months old and 13 lbs but with little little legs like a Dachshund.
