CHANCE - Dachshund and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Colorado Springs, Colorado

Hi, I'm Chance! I can be fearful at first and will choose to keep my distance but warm up after a few days and will jump in your lap! I bark first but love treats so you can win me over. I've lived with another small dog before but have not interacted with other dogs, cats or kids. Slow introductions will be important for me and no promises I'll like everyone. I'm crate trained and pretty good on potty pads but could use support with potty training.

The dachshund is a small dog breed known for its long body, short legs, and distinctive appearance. Originally bred for hunting badgers, these playful and loyal dogs make loving companions for families. Dachshunds come in three coat varieties smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired each with its own unique charm. Despite their size, dachshunds are bold and courageous, with a curious nature that can sometimes lead to mischief. Their endearing personality and adaptability make them popular pets worldwide.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
