Heidi (D26-5574)

This adorable little dachshund is a bit of a diva who knows exactly what she likes. Having lived a very sheltered life, she’s still discovering that the world isn’t such a scary place.

Every day, Heidi grows a little braver. She’s learning to trust new people, explore new experiences, and even walk on a leash. With patience, consistency, and lots of encouragement, she’s making wonderful progress.

Heidi is happiest when she’s with her person. She’s incredibly affectionate, loves to be involved in everything you’re doing, and will happily follow you from room to room. In fact, she’s usually right under your feet! Because she’s so devoted and tends to stay close, Heidi would not be a good match for someone with mobility or balance concerns.

Her ideal home is one that understands that confidence takes time to build. She’ll thrive with a patient family willing to let her learn at her own pace while showering her with the love and reassurance she craves.

If you’re looking for a loyal little shadow with a touch of sass, a heart full of love, and the sweetest puppy-dog eyes around, Heidi may be the perfect addition to your family.

Heidi’s Perfect Home:

🐾 Patient and understanding
🐾 Ready to continue her leash training and confidence-building
🐾 Looking for a constant companion
🐾 No mobility or balance concerns due to her tendency to stay underfoot
🐾 Plenty of love, snuggles, and positive reinforcement
