About Luke

Luke is a small, tricolor Dachshund with a calm spirit and an easygoing nature. At around 10 or 11 years old, he cherishes the simple things like curling up in his bed near you or resting quietly in a crate. Luke gets along just fine with other dogs, but he’s truly happiest as your one-on-one companion. He prefers a home without children or cats—peace and quiet suit him best. Healthwise, Luke’s life is well-managed on daily medication for Cushing’s disease, plus a bit of liver support. His mobility is surprisingly good despite a history of IVDD, though ramps and a jump-free lifestyle will keep him comfortable. He’s house trained and neutered, with vaccinations up to date. For anyone seeking a loyal, mellow dog to share the quieter moments, Luke could be a perfect fit. What are you waiting for? Apply today!

    Luke and his fellow Dachshunds don't need a huge backyard; a small, secure outdoor space for short walks and sniffing is usually adequate, as long as they get regular time with their people.
