Meet Chanel

Update after I've been in my foster home about a month:  I LOVE other dogs!  I am great with the puppies that we are also fostering here.  I definitely need a playmate, and I would do well with a dog around my size or bigger who like to be rough and run around!  I would love to run around a yard with my buddy, or long walks sound nice!  I am great in my crate.  I am housebroken, but I hate going out in the rain (can you blame me?)  I love to cuddle and give kisses!!!   Hi!  I'm Chanel!! My mom really loves me, but I was just too bouncy and busy around her little girl.  I could really use a doggie playmate to bounce around with!  I'm a great girl, ready to be your best friend!  I am a little shy at first in new situations, but I'm a brave girl and I warm up quickly!! Chanel is being fostered in Charlottesville VA. Her adoption fee is $400 and she is fully up to date on her vetting. 

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.

Look for other dogs for adoption!
