Wanda - Miniature Poodle and Dachshund Dog for Adoption in Salisbury, North Carolina

Hello, future family! My name is Wanda, and I'm a sweet 23-year-old Doxiepoo with a heart full of love and a tail that never stops wagging.

If you're looking for a dog who wants to be your best friend, your cuddle buddy, and your loyal sidekick, I might be the perfect girl for you. I absolutely love affection and am happiest when I'm spending time with my favorite humans. Whether it's belly rubs, ear scratches, or snuggling up next to you on the couch, I'm always ready to soak up some love.

I'm a friendly girl who gets along with most other dogs, but what I really want is a family of my own to bond with. I came to the sanctuary with Cosmo and our son, Poof. While we've shared quite the journey together, the staff believes we'll each flourish best in separate homes where we can receive individual attention and continue building our confidence.

Like many dogs who are adjusting to new environments, I may need a little help polishing my leash manners. Sometimes I get so excited about the world around me that I forget how to walk politely! With patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, I'll be strutting down the sidewalk like a pro in no time.

I have a gentle, loving personality and so much affection to give. If you're searching for a devoted companion who will greet you with enthusiasm every day and remind you just how special you are, I'd love to meet you.

I am up-to-date on vaccines, spayed, dewormed, microchipped, and heartworm negative.
