COMMITMENT NEEDED BY: 5/22 

We are making one last push for these two young female dachshund mixes. Both came in as strays and are in desperate need of decompression and experienced handling outside of the shelter environment.

🐾 White female (~11 lbs)
She has started to come around and is becoming more tolerant of interaction (still doesn't allow ahndling). While still under-socialized and nervous, she is showing progress with consistency and patience.

🐾 Black/Tan female (~18 lbs)
Still quite defensive and reactive. She requires experienced handling and remains the more behaviorally concerning of the two.

Due to handling limitations, we have still been unable to complete heartworm testing.

These dogs are NOT candidates for public adoption placement at this time. They need rescue partners experienced in behavior work, decompression, fearful/small dog handling, and allowing dogs time to settle safely.

They do better separate - white female feeds off the black one. 

There is potential here in the right hands — but time and environment matter greatly for dogs like these.

IF YOU CAN HELP ANY BY NETWORKING, SHARING, ETC. WE WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT! Thank you for everything that you do as our shelter partner!
