About Caesar

Meet Caesar, a charming 15-year-old long-haired Dachshund looking for a loving home! While he may take his time to warm up, especially around men and strangers, Caesar has a sweet side just waiting to shine once he feels comfortable. He thrives in a quiet environment and is best suited for an adult-only home or one with kids aged 5 and up, as he can be possessive of his food and has shown a tendency to nip when anxious. Thunderstorms are particularly frightening for him, and he has escaped during storms in the past, so a secure home during bad weather is essential. Caesar is currently in foster-to-adopt care while we address a few medical needs, including a kidney protocol that involves daily fluids. He also has a small heart murmur that future veterinarians should note. He is not looking for a perfect home but rather the right one—a patient and understanding owner who can give him the time he needs to adjust. If you’re ready for a tiny companion with a big personality, come meet Caesar! Your new best friend awaits!
