Cookie

My story

Cookie has just landing in her foster home. She came to DREAM with a bullet lodged in her right front leg. It has been there some time and moved into the bone. She can walk but she slows down throughout the day and limps. This injury is causing her pain and will only get worse with age so the veterinarian recommended to remove her leg. Her surgery is in a week and soon she will join the canine tripod club. Never fear, dogs are adaptable and this little spitfire will be on her way to pain free days. She will be available for adoption post surgery and helping her recover and adapt is a wonderful opportunity to bond. Cookie is a playful, happy dog who gets along well with other small dogs, is mostly housetrained and is always up for a snuggle on the couch. If you sit, she’s on your lap or snuggled up close in a flash. A quick introduction is all she needs then you will be friends for life. She sleeps through the night in her crate. Stay tuned for updates. If you are interested in adopting Cookie, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Cookie's adoption fee is $600. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Cookie will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed. Almost every dog's veterinary expenses exceed our adoption fees; we are a non-profit. DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia. Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part. DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back. Follow us on Instagram , Facebook and Twitter
