Do you have your own dogs or aren’t in the position to adopt right now but would still love to help?  You can help by sponsoring one of our dogs that are waiting to be adopted.  We also have dogs that are permanent foster dogs.  These dogs may be seniors, have medical issues and/or have difficulty getting adopted.  Since we are dedicated to our dogs for their lifetime they continue to stay in our rescue program as a permanent foster and continue to incur medical expenses.

The Sponsor a Dachshund Program makes it easy to help a pet in need. Under available dogs click on any pet’s profile, look for and click the “Sponsor Me” button.  You can also go to our Sponsor a Dog page and look for a dog that may not be available for adoption yet. Simply click to donate directly to that pet’s care.

Name: Liebschen

Age:  2 years and 63 months old (est)

Even at the early age of this precious little girl has a sad story to tell.  The story we were told was that her family moved and left her behind to take care of herself.  A good samaritan contacted us for help.  It does seem that she had a litter of puppies not long ago.  She is getting more social everyday since she has been with her foster family.  She loves to be outside in the sunshine with her toys.  She is housebroken and uses a doggie door.  She has been dog, cat, bird and squirrel tested, although she has not been around children yet.  She seems to prefer to socialize with men.  She has the cutest little snore you have heard. 

Liebschen is now available for adoption under a heartworm positive contract.  Liebschen has just finished her heartworm treatments and just needs a few weeks of a calm environment. 

                                             

What is DDRTX?

Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas is a rescue organization, operated primarily volunteers, in the heart of Texas that is dedicated to the health, welfare, and happiness of our dachshund friends. We are based in Central and South Central Texas and have volunteers in many parts of Texas. We are a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization. As such, we must rely heavily on donations and contributions, which are a necessity in order to continue to be able to pay the costs of veterinary care and other necessary expenses for each of our dachshunds. Diamond Dachshund has rescued, rehabilitated and placed from 100 to 200 dachshunds each year since our incorporation in 2003. We strive to find the right home for each dog's individual personality and needs so that the placement is permanent and both the dogs and the families who adopt them are equally happy.
