Maggie was surrendered to Furever After Small Dog Rescue by her owners at the age of two because she was not a good fit for their lifestyle.  She was not receiving the time and attention that she needed and she was being confined to a crate for extended periods of time.  We agreed to accept Maggie into our care in order to ensure that her next home would be a permanent one and that she would be spayed prior to adoption.  Miniature Dachshunds are currently a favorite choice of puppy millers and backyard breeders and we didn't want Maggie to fall prey to an unscrupulous breeder.

When Maggie came into our care, she was suffering from several anxiety related behavior issues, including separation anxiety.  After spending some time in a loving foster home, Maggie became more confident, her anxiety diminished and most of her behavior issues resolved.  While in our care, Maggie was spayed, tattooed, micro-chipped, updated on her vaccinations and her teeth were buffed and polished.

Maggie was adopted by a wonderful young couple in Vancouver who love her dearly.  Maggie's mom works mostly from home and she is able to take Maggie with her almost everywhere she goes.
