Dachshund Dogs Available for Adoption in South Bend, Indiana

Vienna is an adorable 1.5 year old dachshund mix. She loves to run and play but also hop on your lap to cuddle. Vienna plays well with other similar sized dogs but is fearful of large dogs. She loves kids and tries to play with any of them that she sees. Vienna walks very well on leash and even likes to do trails! She is doing great with potty training and will use a potty pad if she can't get outside. Vienna does seem fearful of older gentleman, we are hoping this is something she can overcome with time.
