Look at me! I am a Mini Dachshund - Shih-Tzu Mix puppy! My Mom is a Mini Dachshund named Nellie. My Dad is a Shih-Tzu named Sparky. I was born on January 29th and I will be ready for my forever home on March 26th! I have been family raised on a mini farm in the country around children. I have had my shots and dewormers. I will be checked by a veterinarian. For more information or to schedule a visit with me, please contact Wilma Monday through Saturday. All Sunday calls will be returned on Monday.
I will come with my vet and shot/dewormer records and some of my current food, Royal Canin Dry Food, and a toy or blankie.
We would be happy to help you with setting up transportation and shipping of your puppy if needed at an additional cost.
