About Luke in NC
Luke in NC is a charming 7-year-old Dachshund with a smooth red coat, currently residing in Winston-Salem, NC. He has made wonderful strides in his training, thanks to efforts from a professional trainer and his foster mom. Though he does not get along with cats, he plays well with both male and female dogs and enjoys being outdoors in a secured yard where he can roam freely. Having previously ruled his household, Luke learned some bad habits, but now he's mastering commands like "leave it" to improve his behavior. He thrives on human attention and loves to snuggle. A quieter home environment with adult children aged 14 and older is preferred, as he feels uneasy around strangers and loud noises. Luke can be nippy around larger dogs and would benefit from an experienced adopter familiar with Dachshund behavior. Despite his initial weight issues, he has slimmed down and enjoys his daily walks. While he responds well in calmer settings, potential adopters should be prepared to work with him on socialization. He thrives best in a home without frequent visitors and would love to share his days with a smaller dog or as the only pet. Ready to help Luke find his forever home?
