Beto and Pantera - Dachshund and Pointer Dog for Adoption in Zuni, Virginia

Hi, were Beto and Pantera, a bonded pair who have spent our whole lives side-by-side and were looking for a forever home where we can stay together. We don't look alike. Beto is a 35-pound black and white Pointer, and Pantera is a 22-pound black Dachshund mix. But our hearts beat in the same rhythm. Were about seven years old, fully vaccinated, spayed/neutered, heartworm negative, and 100% house trained.

We were rescued in Costa Rica after showing up skinny, hungry, and desperate for help. Our family took us in, loved us back to health, and eventually brought us with them to the United States. Weve been inseparable ever since. Our family is moving out of the country, so we are looking for a new home in the states.

In Costa Rica, we participated in training classes as comfort dogs. People constantly remark on how sweet, loving, and easy we are.

Beto (Pointer, Male, 35 lb.)
I'm the singer of the duo. I love to woo woo and serenade you with my happy voice. I'm affectionate, snuggly, and incredibly respectful. Ive never chewed anything I shouldn't, never had an accident in the house, and I sit patiently while my person says grace before meals. I walk beautifully on a leash, love car rides, and make friends with other dogs quickly when we walk together as a pack. I do have prey drive, so I'm not sure how I'd do with cats.

Pantera (Dachshund Mix, Female, 22 lb.)
I'm the little shadow who wants to be close to you. I'm gentle, snuggly, and just as respectful as Beto. Ive never touched anything that wasn't mine and have never had an accident indoors. I walk well on a leash, love car rides, and warm up quickly to new dogs when we walk together. I have partial cataracts, so I see best in good lighting and may get unsure in dim spaces, but I navigate life just fine with a little reassurance. I also have prey drive, so cats are an unknown.

Our Bond
Weve been together through hunger, rescue, healing, travel, and love. We comfort each other, follow each other, and relax best when were side-by-side We would fit well into just about any home whether active, calm, or a little mix of everything. We are looking for a loving home where we can stay together, keep our routines, and continue being the gentle, affectionate companions we've always been. Were easy dogs, polite, quiet, house-trained, and deeply loving. We don't need crates; we adore car rides and were wonderful with children and friendly dogs.
