Tom is on the left and Jerry is on the right in the picture. Tom is the more outgoing brother, first to wake up, first to eat. Jerry is more laid back and a follower. He loves to snuggle and he always goes to sleep first. Both are under 3 lbs right now, and we expect when they are full-grown they will be about the same size as their momma, Bella, who is 7/8 lbs. Tom and Jerry will be ready to go to their forever homes in a week or so. We will have them neutered and microchipped and they have had their first puppy shots. Their adoption fee is $400 per puppy. Go to kkidsrescue.org to apply!
Adoption Process
We have a rigorous process whereby the applicant applies online and is carefully screened to ensure that all currently owned pets have been spayed/neutered and are up to date on vaccinations and on monthly heart worm meds. The applicant provides vet and personal refs and must demonstrate that he/she is capable and willing to commit to the dachshund for the rest of his/her life providing love, neutron, exercise, and appropriate veterinary care, and that a plan is established for what happens if the adopter can no longer care for the dachshund or if the dachshund outlives him/her. A home visit is required prior to being approved to adopt and if all goes well and the match is right, K Kids and the adopter execute an adoption agreement after the fee has been collected. Fees are $350 for puppies, $275 for adult dogs ages 1-7, and $150 for senior dogs ages 8 and older. Then the adopter can take possession of the dachshund. If he/she does not get the dachshund wanted, K Kids keeps the application on file for when a suitable match can be made.
