Ian - 10yo Mini Dachshund (adopted 10/7/23)

Meet Ian, a 10 year old, tri-colour, Miniature Dachshund. Ian is a beautiful, placid dog and is tolerant and kind around other dogs. Ian is a sweet and gentle little boy. He enjoys exploring the garden with our other dogs and also being inside and sleeping on the lounge at night. Ian needs a little more help with house training but since recently being desexed he is settling in nicely to a home environment.

When Ian first came to his foster carer two weeks ago, he was timid and wary of people. He has been receiving lots of TLC and has come a long way. He is still a little wary at times, but is becoming more trusting and enjoying attention.

Before being rescued by DRN, Ian was being used as a breeding dog but little is known about his background apart from that.

Ian will make a great companion to someone who can nurture him and shower him with affection. He would be suitable in a family environment or with a single carer or couple who could give him lots of attention.
