Charlie in Texarkana TX

My story

Charlie Brown, aka Charlie is a male red Dachshund. He is 10 years old and he weighs about 14 pounds. Charlie’s full medical history is available. He is neutered, regularly and fully vaccinated including rabies, always on preventives and had his second dental of his life in March 2025. Charlie is ready for adoption. Charlie was adopted in late 2015 by his mom who went on to adopt two other boys from this rescue over the years. Unfortunately the boys lost their mom this summer. We’ve known Charlie from his original rescue at 11 weeks old, so basically his whole life. He is exactly what a stubborn dachshund should be. Charlie is into his person but he has his little obsessions too. At his foster home he is obsessed with the cat so we don’t recommend a home with cats. Establish his meal times (twice a day) and you’re stuck with them forever. Charlie is easy going about meeting people. He knows how to ride in the car and walk on a leash well. His bathroom habits are good especially with leash walking. If your schedule doesn’t line up with his he will designate a spot for you to put a potty pad. Charlie actually doesn’t mind kenneling when you are away though. He is a little food obsessed so don’t be late with breakfast! Charlie can sleep in the big bed. He walks up to you and looks up when he wants attention and he loves to cuddle during tv time. Charlie’s most annoying quality is he will find food, treats and yummy trash every time, so you need a step-on trash can and to learn not to leave your food on the coffee table even for a second. Charlie is a great companion. He is fine with other dogs but he is also fine without. We are seeking the perfect home for Charlie where we can continue to keep up with him and his life.
