About This Dog

Rio's ideal home

Meet handsome lad, Rio! Rio is a 4-year old Dachshund looking for his forever home. Despite being a Daxi, Rio has tons of energy and would love an active family that are willing to take him on engaging walks, with plenty of enriching activities during the day. Rio really loves his toys, specifically his rubber ones to chew on and his soft toys to rip apart! Rio is looking for a home where all children are older secondary school aged and over. Rio could potentially live with another dog in the home, pending a successful meet here in the centre - ideally a calm, polite friend. Rio is fully housetrained, but can have an excited wee here and there! He also loves a fuss from his people; he's very typical of his breed in this regard!
He walks well on lead, though he can pull a bit when he's feeling excited. Rio is a clever boy, but can get a bit overwhelmed when excited and can show some displacement behaviours. Rio is attached to his people, so does struggle being left on his own at first. He'd love to have a family that are willing to build his time alone up nice and slowly. We can't wait for this lovely gentleman to find his forever home!

Could you be Rio's perfect match?

Rio is a super handsome Daxi, and would love owners that are experienced with the breed. He is very energetic and intelligent - his Kong does tire him out which is great for settling. He would prefer a quieter home but could cope with a bit of hustle and bustle, but definitely needs active owners that can let him burn off some steam out and about!
He's a super cuddly boy, and loves meeting new people and is also super for all forms of handling including veterinary! We can't wait to see this handsome lad living it up with his forever family.

Female Chocolate and tan Dachshund 3 years 8 months old free to a loving home. She is fully vaccinated and is spayed. She would not be suitable around children and would suit an older couple perhaps. She didn’t get along with her sister and this is the reason she needs to find another home.
