SNOWY Breed: Dachshund mix Age: Approx 12 (could be older) Health: Good, energetic, likes walks and playing, teeth good, eyes developing catacts. will need to remain on healthy diet and suggested supplements for her joints and muscles Hello, my name is Snowy and I am well-deserving of a comfy retirement and some belly rubs. My story isn’t pretty-- my daughter Belle and I were taken by the courts from a hoarding situation in San Bernadino and sent to a crowded shelter where we shared a dark pen for 9 months. Thankfully Rompin Paws Rescue pulled us up to WA just in time and I’m so happy Belle was adopted last summer and is living the Island life on Camano. I have been doing okay, but I’ve been at Rompin Paws now for a year and truly deserve to find my people, free me from the chaos of rescue life and show me the comfort and love of a family companion. I am between 9 and 13 years of age, according to my vet. The young ones at my shelter get all the attention—but for those who check me out, I am eager with a wiggly tail, kisses and will roll for you to rub my belly. I honestly have had enough of close quarters with dogs and would prefer to have you all to myself… but I can live with another mellow dog as long as you feed me separately and give me regular private space and attention. I’ve been spayed, had teeth extractions and clearning, and am up to date on vaccines and microchip. I have sensitive skin that seems to be allergy related, so I’m on a diet of high quality freeze dried foods. And great news! I am part of the Senior for Senior adoption plan for $100.00. Regular suggested adoption fee is $250.00 to offset a portion of my medical costs at Rompin Paws. Thank you for considering me! Snowy is part of our senior to senior adoption Program. if the approved adopter is 60 or older the donation is only $100.00 More about Snowy, a senior Dachshund mixIs Not Good with Dogs, Not Good with Cats, Good with Older/Considerate Kids Only, Good with Adults, Good for Seniors/Elderly, Somewhat vocal, Requires a yard, Likes to be in your lap, Apartment OK, Affectionate, Eager To Please, Intelligent, Even-tempered, Gentle, Goofy, Not good with small dogs Special Needs: her eyes were affected bny nine months of darkness and cataracts are developing
