About Stoney

Meet Stoney, a charming little boy just 1 year old and weighing in at 17 lbs. He recently traveled from a high-kill area in Texas and is now looking for a warm, loving home in the northwest. Stoney is a Dachshund mix with a friendly demeanor and seems to adapt well to the people he encounters. While he enjoys the company of other dogs, he can be a bit protective over his food, which adds a touch of character to his personality. We're also working on leash training him so he can enjoy walks outside. Stoney is neutered, fully vaccinated, and will have a microchip when he goes to his new home. His adoption fee is set at $350. If you think you could be the right match for this lovely pup, please submit an application. We look forward to hearing from you!
