The HTDR Process
Intake
Intake
Intake
Our dogs come from a variety of backgrounds. Some are from neglectful situations while others are from loving owners that can no longer care for them.
Foster
Intake
Intake
Our carefully selected foster homes cater to the needs of each dog, provide stability, safe housing and love for the dog to decompress and be coached where necessary.
Vet
Intake
Rehome
All veterinary needs are addressed on an individual basis. All dogs are dewormed, Heartworm tested, Microchipped, Vaccinated (Bordetella, Dhppv, Rabies), Spayed / Neutered and assured to have proper dental cleaning.

Only when the dog has fully recovered from vetting, behaviors and needs have been assessed properly and training addressed, is a dog listed for adoption.
STELLA
Female, 5 years old, 15 lbs
Adoption fee: $550
Meet Stella, a sweet little dachshund with a big personality and an even bigger heart. She came to us as an owner surrender, and while she’s shy and timid at first, once she feels safe, she transforms into the ultimate lap dog who loves to be held and snuggled.
Stella is house-trained on a schedule, kennel-trained, and sleeps peacefully in her kennel at night. She’s not leash-trained yet and is afraid of the dog door, so she’ll need a gentle hand to guide her through these new experiences. Unknown noises and unfamiliar things can scare her, and car rides aren’t her favorite, but her love for toys, bones, and treats makes her easy to win over.
She has an alpha personality and will thrive as the only dog in the home. She is great with older kids. Her behavior with cats is not known. Previous dachshund experience is a must.
Her ideal family will be home often, offering a quiet environment and plenty of patience as she learns her new surroundings.
MARGO
Female, 6 years old, 10 lbs
Adoption fee: $575
Margo was surrendered by her previous owner and is now searching for a calm, loving home where she can truly thrive. She’s a beautiful dachshund with a big personality and a sweet, affectionate nature once she feels comfortable. At first, Margo can be shy and timid, but with patience and love, she blossoms into a loyal companion who loves being near her person and enjoys short walks.
She’s house trained, leash trained, and kennel trained, though the kennel isn’t her favorite place. Margo is okay with cats and can be around other dogs with proper introductions, but she has an alpha personality and will do best as the only dog in the home. She needs an experienced dachshund owner who can set clear boundaries and provide gentle guidance.
Her ideal home is one with someone home more often than not, in a calm environment, and looking for a devoted companion to share their days with. Margo has so much love to give and deserves a family who understands her needs and will cherish her for the wonderful dog she is.
