Everyone meet Lucy! She's a shy but playful girl who is guessed to be around 5yrs old. She has limited sight in her left eye but that does not slow her down one bit! She loves to play with other dogs, not tested with cats. Young kids make her nervous but fine with older kids who will let her warm up on her terms. She absolutely loves her crate and is housetrained. She also loves her home once she gets comfortable but she can be a bit of an escape artist getting out the door but she doesnt go far. Would be best in a home with a fenced yard or an outside area she could go into without anything she could climb on to jump over. She loves chew sticks and treats and anything rubber related to toys. Beware as she will steal shoes and anything rubber if she thinks it belongs to her! If you think Lucy would be a great match for you please reach out!!!
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.
