About Wilbur
Wilbur is a sweet lovely old man who just wants his family nearby and cuddles or a good scratch as often as possible but he is not demanding for it
He sleeps a huge amount and you will never need to look for him when he is having a nap as you can hear him well before you would find him boy he snores but it’s very very cute
Wilbur needs to be monitored for eating as in the past he has been overloved with food and still tries very hard to win you over in sharing with him your meal and with his beautiful eyes and sweet demeanour it’s easy to want to give in but not so for his health.
Wilbur loves a walk however does tire easily so little walks and a few a day he just loves
He also loves a car ride as well
Wilbur enjoys a lovely gentle brushing but not the keenest for a bath
Wilbur is very inquisitive about pocket pets of all kinds and doesn’t appear to show any desire to do more than know exactly what they are.
He is good with all humans big or small but does need to be left to have his own space
Wilbur will do well with someone who is home a lot and although happy to be with other dogs I believe a single pampered home would be best for him
🛑 Wilbur is a full size Dachshund. He has a long coat that needs regular grooming which you need to take into account. He also needs a family that will exercise him and keep in check his food so he can lose the weight he needs to and then maintain his weight to keep him healthy

Adoption Process
If you should choose to adopt a dog from SEQ K9 Rescue Inc:
You will be asked to complete an Online Adoption Application.
Completing this form helps us to determine if the dog you are applying for will fit your family. Some dogs have special needs so we may be looking for a specific forever home.
After you have completed the Online Adoption Application, we will have the information to determine if you are a good match for the dog you are applying for. Sometimes we may recommend another dog we have in our care.
Next, we will arrange for you to meet the dog/puppy.
We ask that you bring along your children and your dog to the meet. A yard check (or yard photos) will be checked and only then will approval be considered.
Please remember sometimes there are several applications for the same dog so this process may take up to a week.
If your application is approved, now is the time to invest in a dog harness, led, bedding and toys.
All adoption fees must be cleared before our dogs can be collected from our carers. Our carers are not allowed to accept cash. Bank deposit/transfers only.
We also offer a 2 week trial period - if your new family member is not settling please contact SEQ K9 Rescue Inc via email immediately. We are happy to assist with training or advise if the dog has not settled.
If for any reason the dog needs to be returned to the rescue organisation, the adoption fee minus a $50 non-refundable deposit will be refunded to you. Your refund will be returned via bank transfer within 10 working days.
If the dog is returned after the trial period generally no refund will be made.
Interstate adoptions may be requested to supply additional information and photographs of the proposed environment for the dog. Interstate adopter must pay transport costs in addition to the adoption fee.
If the dog is to return from an interstate adoption, the adopter is to pay all costs to return the animal to SEQ K9 Rescue Inc in Brisbane.
All dogs deserve a forever home.
This pet has been adopted and found love with its new family.
