Trudy’s foster mom, Cheryl Henkel, says this about Trudy…

Breed: Wirehaired Miniature Dachshund. By the way, did you know that last year at the Westminster dog show the highest-placing Doxie last year was the wire-haired!

Size and Sex:Trudy is female miniature dachshund and 10″ high, 13″ from chest to hindquarters, probably weighs about ten pounds, but needs some weight on her. Her ribs & spine are protuberant.

She is a real doll. Picked her out at Tangipahoa Parish Animal Control (TPAC) in Hammond on Saturday, November 22, 2008 (it is amazing what wonderful little dogs need up in this animal shelter). Trudy was turned into the high kill animal shelter because her family “couldn’t keep her”. No specifics given. She is very mild mannered and sweet. I have yet to see anything faze her. She takes everything in stride. Other dogs are okay, cats are okay, everything is okay!

She loves to be close and cuddle. She minds her manners, but will occasionally steal a very soft kiss. She appears to be house trained. She is playful without being rambunctious. She will gently mouth your hand to encourage play.

Health: Trudy seem to be healthy but needs a little weight on her. Will be vet checked and spayed on Wednesday November 26, 2008. Will update this posting after her vet check.

Adopt Trudy the Doxi

IMPORTANT NOTE: All dogs need regular vigorous exercise. They also should be obedience trained and have an owner that knows how to be the pack leader. We will only consider adopting to people willing to give the proper care and leadership that all dogs need.

If you are interested please fill out the application FIRST. There is no obligation. The dog’s foster parent will get in touch with you and will answer any questions that you may have.Thanks!
