Billy is a sweet and inquisitive black-and-white Dachshund with a heart of gold. As the ultimate "people-pet," he truly thrives when he's by your side, happily following you from room to room to ensure he's always part of the action. While he can be a little shy with new faces at first, he warms up quickly-especially if he has a furry friend, like his 6-year-old Lab foster sister, to show him the ropes.
This wiggly guy is incredibly smart and a total pro when it comes to leash walking and potty training. He has recently mastered several new tricks and absolutely lives for his snuffle mat and puzzle toys. Because he is so treat-motivated and intelligent, he loves using his nose to find hidden goodies, which is the perfect way to keep his busy mind happily occupied.
Because Billy forms such strong bonds with his humans, he prefers a home where he isn't left alone for long periods. He would do best with a family where someone is home most of the time to keep him company or one that can provide him with a consistent routine to help him feel secure. If you're looking for a loyal, smart, and deeply affectionate companion who is already ahead of the curve on his training, Billy is ready to be your new best friend!
