About Ladybug

Meet Ladybug, the charming long-haired dachshund mix looking for her forever home. Weighing in at 10 pounds, she embodies petite cuteness and has a friendly demeanor with other dogs. However, her heart's desire is to be the spotlight pet, enjoying all the love and attention from her owner. While she can share space with a single male dog, she truly thrives as an only child, reflecting her past life. Ladybug has been spayed and is fully vaccinated, de-wormed, and on flea and tick preventatives. She comes from a unique situation; her previous owner has passed away, and her extended family couldn't keep her due to housing restrictions. Please note that Ladybug is best suited for homes without children under 9 years old, as per our adoption policy. If you're captivated by this sweet girl, please reach out to learn more about her and how to meet her. The application process is straightforward, so why wait any longer? Apply today!
