About Eileen

Eileen is a reserved, gentle Dachshund still getting used to her foster home in Sioux Falls, SD. She came to rescue fearful and remains shy, but she’s slowly warming up and is now learning to trust people more. She’s more comfortable being picked up and is gradually seeking out attention from her foster mom. Eileen does best with the company of other dogs, as she takes cues from them and gains confidence by following their example. A home with at least one social dog will be essential for her ongoing comfort and social development. She kennels quietly and her potty training is coming along. A securely fenced yard is a must for her. Eileen is estimated to be around 7 years old and weighs about 12 pounds. Her adoption fee has helped cover the cost of important vetting.
