About Cordelia
Meet Cordelia. Cordelia is a 5-year-old Dachshund mix, weighing just 11 pounds, with a soft gray and black coat that's gradually recovering from a difficult past. Rescued from a hoarding situation, she came to us neglected and missing fur in many areas. Now, thanks to proper care and a safe environment, she's healing and her beautiful coat is slowly growing back. This little girl is very shy and insecure, learning step by step that the world can be kind. You won’t find her rushing to greet strangers or seeking attention. Instead, she communicates her needs in delicate, quiet ways—through gentle glances, cautious steps forward, and tiny tail wags that feel like monumental victories. Each bit of trust she offers is a testament to her journey. Cordelia will thrive with a patient adopter who understands that building her confidence will take time. She heavily relies on the support of another dog, so a secure and friendly canine companion is a must in her future home. Cordelia cannot be placed as an only dog; she needs the guidance of another stable, social dog to help her navigate new situations with less fear. While her true personality is still unfolding, the sweetness beneath her shyness is unmistakable. With patience, a calm home, and the support of a canine friend, Cordelia will gradually reveal her loving nature. If you have a gentle heart and a welcoming dog who can show her the way, Cordelia could be the perfect addition to your family. Watching her gain confidence and learn about love will be a truly rewarding journey. Adoption fee is $350. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
