Are you right for Reggie?

Meet our gorgeous, bald boy, Reggie! Reggie is a 2-year old Dachshund who is a little nervous meeting new people at first, so will need adopters to go slow and understand his body language and when he needs some space. For this reason, Reggie is looking for a home where all children are 11yrs+ and able to give him space when he needs it. Reggie came into our care with his brother Ronnie who has since been rehomed. Due to being more worried of other dogs, Reggie would prefer to be the only dog in the home. Once you've entered the besties club with Reggie, he's incredibly friendly and loves a cuddle and a fuss. In typical Daxi style, he can be a little bit vocal when out and about and seeing other dogs. This may need a little work, so an understanding, loving and patient family would be best suited for this gorgeous boy!

Is Reggie right for you?

Reggie is still a little bit under-socialised, so will need an understanding family who are willing to give him the time and patience he will need to come around in his new home. Reggie travels well in the car and can be left for up to 4 hours in his new home, but this will need to be built up slowly at first. On walks, Reggie can pull a little bit, but being a small boy and foodie, we think he'll pick up loose-lead-walking in no time! He may need a bit of reminding with his house-training in his new place of residence, but with a bit of structure, he will be golden. Overall, Reggie is looking for a quiet household that will be happy to take him for sniffy walks and build his confidence in certain areas. We can't wait to see this boy curled up on his forever sofa!
