Poncho is brand new to rescue so we are still getting to know him. At 7 months old, Poncho is ALL PUPPY! He came to us from a shelter so we don’t know much about the first few months of his life but we can tell still learning about the world and life in the home. He’s so full of energy and makes a game out of everything, so he really enjoys being around other very energetic and fun dogs. He likes toys and the occasional shoe he can get a hold of!    We’re teaching Poncho about boundaries, and he’s also learning to walk on a leash, going potty outside (which he’s doing remarkably well!), and how human laps are actually good places to be and relax on (when he’s actually able to stop moving!) We are even clicker-training Poncho and he seems to be responding well. We can see how much potential this very active puppy has!    Poncho would do great with other busy dogs, but might be a bit too rowdy for older / calm dogs, cats or small children.   We’ll update as we get to know Poncho better, in the meantime put in your application if you’d like to meet him!     Love dachshunds and not ready to adopt or circumstances won't permit having a dog?  How about being a sponsor or making a donation.  Every one of our dachshunds receives excellent medical care along with day to day food, love and housing.  Being non-profit, we rely on generous individuals like yourselves to help save these fur babies.  You can do this specifically for one dog with the sponsor button on their webpage or a general donation on our “How To Help” page.  Easy and quick through Pay Pal or your debit/credit card.  You generosity is sincerely appreciated by all and is tax deductable.  Need other ideas?  You'll find tons of them on the How to Help tab.  All contributions are tax deductable.   Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas is a non-profit 501(c)(3) volunteer organization with focus on rescue and adoption of pure breed Dachshunds.  All dogs are fully vetted and housed on private property.  Meetings are scheduled upon adoption approval.  Thank you for your continued support to the rescue and shelter communities!  Opt to Adopt!
