Chloe is a charming chocolate-coated standard dachshund with a tail that seems to have a mind of its own, always wagging with excitement. At around 6 years old, she has a calm and easygoing nature, making her quite the pleasant companion. Chloe enjoys a good leash walk followed by a restful nap, whether in her cozy bed or crate. She entered foster care after her owner moved into assisted living, but she’s handling the transition well. Patience helps her settle in, revealing a sweet, food-motivated girl who simply wants her routine and loving people back. Chloe does well with other dogs and older children and is both house-trained and crate-trained. While she loves her food, she’ll need a family committed to a healthier lifestyle, including regular walks and controlled portions to help her lose about 5 pounds. A few things to keep in mind about Chloe: when she first arrived, she growled at a larger dog, likely out of nerves from her new surroundings. A slow introduction to any resident dogs will help her feel more comfortable. She’s also a bit sensitive about having her mouth examined, so a calm, experienced handler at the vet is ideal. While she can be vocal, especially when she wants something or hears a visitor at the door, she is generally calm within the home. Ready to welcome Chloe into your life?
