About Morgan

Meet Morgan! Morgan is an 8-year-old, 15-pound chocolate and cream Dachshund whose main goal in life is to spread love and affection. Rescued along with 41 other Dachshunds from a previous home, he has embraced this fresh start with a heartwarming spirit and a wagging tail. This cuddle bug defines companionship. At bedtime, he eagerly trots up the doggy stairs, launches himself into his foster's arms, and settles in for belly rubs on his back. If you're looking for a loyal companion, Morgan is ready to step into that role with joy. Morgan is easygoing and adaptable. He enjoys the company of people and gets along well with other dogs. Surprisingly, he has even become buddies with his foster's cat and happily follows it around the house. When he’s not snuggling, Morgan loves exploring outside. He enjoys walks, darting around in the grass, and soaking up the surrounding sights and smells. He's great on a leash and even handles city life like a pro. Morgan takes daily subway rides in a chest carrier, calmly navigating the hustle and bustle with ease. While Morgan loves affection, he also has a soft spot for deli turkey. Due to some dental issues he is addressing, he's not keen on most treats, but he happily accepts a slice of turkey. Morgan is still adjusting to some household routines and is making progress with potty training, but occasional accidents happen. He may bark briefly when left alone, but crate training is helping him feel more secure. His future family should be patient and continue to support him in this learning. Morgan's gentle personality shines through all he does. He's loving, mellow, and eager to be involved in whatever his people are up to. He seeks only a comfy place to rest, some outdoor exploration, and plenty of affection. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
