About Dusty October

Meet Dusty October, an adorable 3-month-old wire hair dachshund mix looking for a forever home. Weighing in at 3.6 lbs, he’s the larger pup in his litter, with one ear that stands straight up, adding to his charm. Dusty came to us after he and his family were owner surrendered, but he’s easygoing and ready to follow you around, just wanting to be cuddled and loved. Dusty is a bundle of joy, always happy and playful. His favorite pastime is to chase his brother around the yard and wrestle. He enjoys squeaky toys or any crinkle kind that keeps him entertained. After a long day of play, Dusty loves to snuggle up close for a good sleep in an exercise pen with his brother. He’s eligible for adoption through our puppy contract, allowing him to adjust to his new home while we arrange for his new puppy shots and neuter, all covered by Diamond Dachshund Rescue of Texas.
