As your rescued dachsie's health improves, his trust in you deepens, and his comfort level in your home increases, you will see an incredible blossoming in your dog. The dachshund who once was afraid of a toilet flushing may now be the dog who can sleep through a fire engine roaring down the street. The dog who was reluctant to meet the neighbors may now be the dog straining at her leash to officially greet every morning walker. And the dog who appeared not to have much personality will be the dog you swear has a sense of humor.

Without question, it is a joy and an incredible experience to see a formerly rejected, unwanted dog literally transform in front of your eyes into a carefree, happy canine companion. On the day the “real” wiener dog emerges from behind what may have been only a mask of a dog initially, you will have the intense satisfaction of knowing that this metamorphosis is not only because of you, it is just for you. Enjoy Every minute is precious.
