Story
Meet Sparky!  Sparky was part of the group of seniors that came to us several weeks ago after their human mom passed away and their human dad was forced to leave the family home - leaving no where for these poor babies to go. Since they technically would have been considered owner surrenders in a county with an extremely small shelter, they would have been euthanized immediately if a rescue didn’t step up to help them.  Sparky is about 12 years old with lots of life left to live! He’s obviously great with other dogs since he lived as part of a pack for most of his life, but he’s also adjusted quite nicely to being the King of the Castle in his foster home! He would love to join a quiet, dachshund loving home so that he can thoroughly enjoy his retirement!!  Does that sound like you?

Story
Meet Lucy! Lucy was part of the group of seniors that came to us in early July after their human mom passed away and their human dad was forced to leave the family home - leaving no where for these poor babies to go. Since they technically would have been considered owner surrenders in a county with an extremely small shelter, they would have been euthanized immediately if a rescue didn’t step up to help them.   We think Lucy 8-9 years old and when she first came to us she was the grumbly one. NOW she’s a total love bug or love-butterfly! She’s lost 5 pounds and though still might look thick on her pics, it’s lots of loose skin. She’s an under the cover sleeper and great with all dogs and even cats! Lucy is still a bit timid and seems more nervous around men. She will definitely need at least one other more confident dog in the home and at least one female adult human. An all female home would be absolutely perfect for her but she would probably do ok with a calm, gentle man as long as she also had her emotional support woman there too. Lucy also does require a fenced yard as she gains confidence on leash     Interested in adopting?

Story
Lucky is a purebred, dapple, wirehaired dachshund. He is 2 yrs old. He is very high energy. He barks at new people and large dogs. He does get along with his two small dog siblings. He is looking for a home where he can be a solo pet or be able to get lots of attention and exercise. He loves toys and treats. He knows some commands like sit, stay, leave it, drop it. He could use more training on calming his anxiety around loud sounds. We are hoping to find a family for him that can give him the exercise and attention he needs.

Story
Kash is 7 He is a super chill, laid back and calm dog. You can take him anywhere. He;s been on planes, cross country roads trips in tight cars, supermarkets, stores and has behaved very well. Not much of a barker. Extremely friendly with people and gentle with kids. Has gotten along well with other dogs at dog parks and in sitter;s homes, however does take him some time to warm up to new dogs as he initially tends to bark at them until he becomes comfortable. Kash LOVES attention from literally anyone, LOVES to be rubbed 24/7. LOVES food/treats, chasing squirrels/rabbits. No current health problems, does need to lose about 5-7lbs. YOU: I am looking to rehome him in a home that he will get lots of attention, stimulation and activity (ideally someone who works from home or doesn;t work long hours, has another dog, large family/kids to play with him) these are not requirements but more or less an environment I feel Kash will thrive in and is what I;m seeking out for Kash.

Story
My mom forgot I was in the house...I got very hungry. Mom was taken away and the family didn't want me so the neighbor stepped in and reached out to Act2Pups and here I am. I was frightfully skinny and I'm slowly gaining weight , I do love food. I know I enjoy playing but, right now I'm resting and recovering. My teeth need cleaning and once that happens I'll be ready for a home that will never forget me. I'm fine with other dogs even though I'm older, at 14. My foster mom says I deserve the best forever home. I couldn't agree more, I'm a great pup!

Story
Meet Boone, a gorgeous and super silly long haired red male, who also happens to be an IVDD survivor. He arrived with a back injury and has gone through surgery. He's still primarily paralyzed but does have some tiny movement in his legs. But don't let that fool you into thinking he's slowed down at all. HECK NO!!! This boy is a professional when it comes to scooting or asking to be carried...and he's up for just about any adventure you care to take him on. He adores the car and wants to be with his people all the time. His bladder does need to be expressed, which is ridiculously easy and not messy at all. Just a little press on his abdomen & wheeee....you're done. Let us show you how. It makes him the most perfectly house-trained dog. WIN!!! Honestly whether he walks or scoots, he's the happiest little camper ever. Mr. Social !!! He has a real zest for life and brings joy to everyone he meets. Boone does enjoy his wheelie cart but b/c he's got such good foot placement when supported, we are encouraging him to keep strengthening his leg muscles to stand. If you know DREAM, you know we never give up. Because thru dreams, most anything is possible. Well almost anything....just not cats for Boone. He thinks they are toys and he will not stop chasing them. Unfortunately, he will annoy the heck out of the cats. DREAM has helped dogs of all capability levels and we believe this guy is really easy to care for. Resource material is available for you to order as well. One of the original board members wrote this extremely helpful book about day to day life with a "down dog".... Honey Have You Squeezed the Dachshund. If you are interested in adopting Boone, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Boone's adoption fee is $350. All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Boone will go to his / her new home microchipped, altered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed. Almost every dog's veterinary expense is greater than our adoption fees. DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia. Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part. DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back. Follow us on Instagram , Facebook and Twitter
