About William

Meet William, a charismatic young Dachshund Chihuahua mix who’s looking for a forever home. Born on June 25, 2024, William is a playful little guy, weighing in at about 8 pounds. He was surrendered by his previous family not due to any behavior issues but simply because they found raising a young dog to be too much work. This little guy has a delightful spirit and is affectionate with everyone he meets. William loves to play and has a tail that wags with joy at the sight of his humans or fellow canine friends. He does get along well with other dogs, making him a great addition to a home with existing pets. William is currently house trained but will need some help adapting to a new routine, especially since he has been living without a doggy door. While he still possesses a youthful energy and curiosity about the world, all he needs is a patient family willing to invest a bit of time in his training and guidance. He has so much love to give and is eager for a family that appreciates his potential. If you can provide him with the loving, permanent home he deserves, William will show you a loyalty that lasts a lifetime. Your new best friend is just one click away!
