Heartworm Prevention is given on the 15th of each month

UPDATE: 

He's proving to be very well-behaved and friendly. Buster has adjusted beautifully to my house, following me everywhere and always staying close by my feet. He is house-trained with no accidents, behaves excellent with other dogs and people, and even has a calming influence on the neighbor's constantly barking dog.

When I'm away, I use a Furbo dog camera to monitor him, and he does seem anxious, often barking and howling for a while after I leave.

 

Hi everyone, my name is Buster and I am very new to Rescue.  My owners passed away and me and brother were taken to a shelter in North Texas.  I thought we would stay together but another Rescue group came in and took my brother and left me because they said I was Dachshund Mix.  I was so very sad to be left behind but more so to be taken from my brother.  But here I am and I want to let you know that I am ok and I am now looking for my forever home.  I finishing up with all my vetting and then I am ready to go.  If you think I would fit into your family, please complete an application at www.ctdr.org.

Adoption process

Adoption Fee:

On average, we spend $296 in vet expenses on each dog that we take in. To help us cover those expenses, on November 1, 2004 our adoption fee will increase to $250, and puppies under 1 year of age will be $300.



1.) Complete our online ADOPTION APPLICATION at (www.ctdr.org/phpform/forms/application.html) and list the names of all the dogs you're interested in. If you don't currently see a dog that matches your family, please tell us more about what you're looking for. We have new dogs weekly and will contact you if a dog comes in that meets your requirements. Don't forget to list the name and number of your current veterinarian and landlord, if applicable! We will contact your current vet, landlord and personal references, if needed.

2.) After we receive your application, we'll contact you to discuss the specifics of what you're looking for. We will try to contact you within 3-7 days, but we are all volunteers and have full time jobs, so be patient with us!

3.) Once we have completed all reference checks, we will schedule a home visit where someone from our organization will come to your home and meet you and your family and any pets you currently have.

4.) Finally, we will schedule a time when your family and pet(s) can meet your desired rescue dachshund. If a long transport is involved, we ask the potential adopter to arrange the transportation of the dog.



For more information, please visit our webpage at www.ctdr.org to read our GUIDELINES for adopting and our PROCESS AND FEES information.

Shelter location

Unlike a shelter or humane society, our dogs are not in one central location, but spread throughout many foster homes across the state. We realize that this makes it difficult to 'come meet our dogs,' but we believe the one-on-one care our dachshunds receive is well worth the inconvenience.



We will work with you to schedule a meet and greet with one or more of our dogs that are determined to be a good match for you and your family.
