And honestly? We wouldn’t have it any other way. Peanut is a 1.5-year-old lovebug currently accepting applications for his forever human. His biggest life goal is simple: be wherever you are. Bathroom? Kitchen? Couch? Peanut says, “Great! I’ll come too.” Personal space is more of a suggestion in Peanut’s world. This boy has a big heart and a playful spirit. He’d love a home with someone who enjoys tossing toys, sharing couch time, and helping him build a little confidence. Peanut is still learning that the world isn’t quite as suspicious as it sometimes sounds… because yes, he does believe every noise deserves a formal bark announcement. Neighborhood watch? Covered.  Peanut’s current resume includes:Potty trainedNo food insecurity (he’s a gentleman at mealtime)Crate training in progressLoyal companion level: expertProfessional noise inspector What Peanut really needs another pup who wants a best buddy and a human patient who will keep helping him grow while enjoying all the goofy affection he has to give. If you’ve been looking for a dog who will adore you like you hung the moon… Peanut might just be your guy.  Apply to meet this little shadow today!Dakota Dachshund Rescue Howdy! I'm Peanut. I came to DDR because I have some issues with resource guarding. There are children in the house and children come over to play so my mom was afraid I might bite someone. I'm a great guy, I just need a strong pack leader and some guidance. I shouldn't be in a home with children because sometimes they don't understand my warning growl to leave my stuff alone. I love playing with other dogs, I do need a fenced yard so I can run chase and play. My foster mom is just getting to know me so she will do an update when she knows me better. Can you be my furever home? I am 1 1/2 yrs old, I weigh 16 pounds, my adoption fee is $600 plus sales tax $27=$627  My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, neuter, dental  and microchipping.
