About Snoz

Saved from Dalhart Texas kill shelter. Super friendly guy. Height of a basset but length of a weenie dog. We didn’t want him to be euthanized for space so we got him out. Neuter 10/17. Approval process applies and adopter must pick up

About Dachshund Dogs

Dachshunds are bold, spirited little dogs with personalities that far exceed their size. Originally bred for hunting, these clever companions are curious, playful, and endlessly entertaining. Their unique silhouette and expressive eyes make them instantly lovable.

Adopting a Dachshund means welcoming a spunky, devoted friend into your life. They form strong attachments to their people and love being involved in everything. Their small size makes them excellent apartment dogs, but don't underestimate their big-dog attitude.
