Hi, everyone! My name is Shelby , and I’m a sweet 10-year-old, 11-pound chocolate-and-tan Dachshund who is new to rescue. I may be a senior girl, but I have a BIG heart and I’m happiest when I’m right beside my favorite human.

I also believe treats are one of life’s greatest treasures, so if you have snacks, we’re probably going to be best friends.

My foster family is helping me work on my potty manners. I’m doing my best! I know I’m supposed to potty in the yard, and I’m very proud when my humans tell me, “Good job!” But I’m still having an occasional accident in the house, so my forever family will need to be patient and continue helping me learn.

I’m a very sweet, cuddly girl, and I’m a good girl about going into my kennel when my humans leave or at bedtime. I’ll be honest, though—I’m not exactly a fan of it. Sometimes I have a little bedtime protest and cry for a while before I settle down. I just really prefer being close to my people!

I’m not a fan of children, so I think I’d be happiest in a home with adults and/or other doggy friends. What I really want is a loving family where I can spend my days being your little shadow, getting cuddles, enjoying treats, and soaking up all the love I deserve.

If you think this sweet little chocolate-and-tan girl might be the perfect addition to your family, please put in your adoption application today! Shelby is ready to find her happily-ever-after.
