China is one of the newer faces in rescue, arriving from a massive breeding-hoarding case involving dozens of other dogs. She’s figuring things out in this new world and is understandably nervous. Right now, China is sticking pretty close to people she recognizes, unsure about her surroundings and needing someone gentle and patient. Despite her worries, she’s sweet at her core and just trying to adjust after so much uncertainty. China has finished her initial vet work, though she’s tested positive for heartworms and will need treatment before going home with anyone. She’s on the heavier side for a Dachshund and will benefit from a focus on healthy habits and a little weight loss. China receives her heartworm prevention monthly. As she gets her footing, a calm, stable environment will help her most. She does get along with other dogs. Your patience and kindness could help her start over. Ready to meet your new best friend?
