Rucker - Dachshund Dog for Adoption in Momence, Illinois

Denver & Rucker came to us 2 weeks ago from an abusive home. They were so nervous and scared when they came to us. They would just shake and bark at us. They wanted to be petted and loved on but was unsure about it. With patience and treats we won them over. They now lets us love on them and pet them. They love to play with their squeaky toys. They also loves to give kisses. Rucker and Denver is super smart and very food and treat motivated. They do get along with other dogs. They are 3 month old male Doxie Mixes!
