Meet Slink
Dachshund x Jack Russell | Male | 3 Years Old | 9.5 kg
A small dog with a huge personality.
Full of Character. Overflowing with Charm.
Slink is one of those dogs you don’t forget. He’s got that perfect blend of sass, smarts, and sweetness — a quirky little character who marches to the beat of his own drum but still loves to curl up with his humans at the end of the day.
Equal parts mischief and mush, Slink will make you laugh with his goofy antics, impress you with how fast he learns, and win you over with his loyal, affectionate heart.
Slink isn’t just a pet — he’s a personality. A little bit bold, a little bit silly, and a whole lot lovable. For the right person, he’ll be an unforgettable best friend.
Personality Snapshot
Playful & Spirited: Slink approaches life like it’s a game – and he’s here to win. He’ll turn a tennis ball into his best friend and any walk into an adventure.
Independent Thinker: He's got his own ideas about things and isn’t afraid to do his own thing — whether that’s patrolling the backyard or rearranging his toys.
Affectionate: While he can be a little cautious at first, once he’s decided you’re his person, he’s all in. Expect cuddles, snuggles, and a loyal shadow.
Clever & Food-Motivated: He knows his name, comes when called (especially if snacks are involved), and is always ready to learn if there's a reward on offer.
Comedic Timing: Slink has a natural talent for comic relief — whether it’s the way he tosses his toys, wiggles with excitement, or gives you that cheeky side-eye when he’s up to something.
🎓 Manners & Training
House Trained: Yes – and will let you know when it’s time to go out.
Sleeping Arrangements: Sleeps soundly through the night, in bed or crate.
Walks & Outings: Loves them! 
Social Skills: Initially wary of strangers and other dogs, but warms up with time and treats.
Toys & Food: No aggression toward people but prefers not to share his favourite things with other dogs.
What He Needs
Slink will thrive in a home that understands and appreciates his big personality. He’s looking for:
Patient, dog-savvy humans who’ll give him time to build trust
A calm, structured environment with consistency and routine
A secure yard for exploring, playing, and sunbaking
No small children (older teens and adults only)
A cat-free, small-pet-free household
Daily Life with Slink
Meals: Royal Canin dry food for breakfast, bone at lunch, and home-cooked chicken and veggies for dinner (yes, he eats well!).
Exercise: Daily walks and high-energy play
Toys: Tennis balls are life. Chew toys must be tough.
Vibe: Independent in the yard, a couch snuggler by evening---

Slink isn’t just a pet — he’s a personality. A little bit bold, a little bit silly, and a whole lot lovable. For the right person, he’ll be an unforgettable best friend.
