Meet the adorable Skittles! 🎉 This darling boy is ready to steal your heart with his sweet personality! Skittles found his way to rescue when his elderly owners realized that their home wasn't the right fit for this loveable pup. You know, sometimes, a dog like Skittles needs a little more attention, and it's clear he thrives on love and affection. 🌈 You see, Skittles came from a home where he tended to be a bit clingy—quite the cuddly companion! He loved his mom so much that he would get tangled in her oxygen tube. ❤️ While his brother was a bit more independent, Skittles would sometimes express his need for companionship in less favorable ways. But here’s the good news: at his new rescue home, Skittles has shown he's a good boy! Sure, he occasionally whines to come in from the yard, but hey, who wouldn't? Outdoors can only hold one's interest for so long, right? Living with other small dogs has shown that Skittles is adaptable and friendly, even if he sometimes prefers to be a wallflower. He's not your typical playful pup, but trust me, when it’s dinnertime, this boy lights up like a Christmas tree! 🍽️ While he hasn’t grown up around little kids, he seems to fit in well with older ones. Just think of him as the gentle giant who is always ready to be part of the family, given the right introductions and a patient heart. Let’s talk about his health for a moment. Skittles is a bit on the hefty side, and that’s a big concern for a dachshund with those long bodies. But don't fret! His new family will have the joy of engaging him in a gentle weight-loss journey while ensuring he gets the love he needs. This boy currently weighs 23.1 pounds and is on a healthy path after receiving his vet check-up and a clean bill of health. 💪 Skittles is fully vetted and ready for his forever family. All he needs now is someone who can commit to seeing him through with love as he commits to being your loyal companion.
