OUR REHOMED DOGS

---

 Gunta was surrendered to us via a lovely breeder who has organised the surrender of other dachshunds into our care previously from contacts she has. Gunta needed to be desexed and it was also noted he had a “lump” on his bottom that needed a vet check. All our volunteers who came into contact with Gunta fell in love with this gorgeous natured little gentleman as he just has the most gentle loving nature. Gunta was desexed and it was found that the lump was in fact a perineal hernia which needed specialist surgery so Gunta was booked in for that once he recovered from his desex. Meanwhile as often happens a friend of Rosalie contacted her to see if maybe we had a little dachshund that needed a home as she had just lost one of her little dachshunds due to a tragic accident, his litter mate was grieving and although the family were not sure they were ready they felt that their girl was so sad that a friend may help her cope with the loss. 

Once Gunta had recovered from his hernia repair a meet and greet was organised and Shelley transported him up to meet his potential new sister and family. Many happy tears were shed by all of us as Gunta and his new sister just seemed to know that they were meant to be together. Gunta happily gave his new Mum licks of approval and went off exploring his new home with his sister. Reports are that a broken family is healing and Gunta is loved and cherished in his new home. This was a special Re home as this family had also lost a little dachshund a short time before and he was a rescue that Rosalie had organised a few years ago, so they had a double heartbreak  We feel that sometimes the universe works to make good things happen and this is one of those times

Meet Billy a gorgeous red standard boy who came to us for Re homing due to no fault of his own. Billy spent some time with Tracey at Adventure Paws Dog Training just for us to get an idea of his needs in a new home. Billy is a very loving boy who gets along with all dachshunds and really is a chilled boy. On our waiting list we had a lovely family with a human brother and a little dachshund who was a bit lonely when his best human mate was at school so a meet and greet was organised. 

We can report that Billy now has his forever home with his new fur brother “Rafa” and human brother and is loved and spoilt by his new Mum and Dad 

We wish you the best Billy and we are so happy for you

Beautiful gentle Keiko was a 7 month old baby when he came into care as he has a paw deformity and his breeder just wanted the best forever home for him. Keiko settled in with Rosalie and her pack and just did what puppies do, enjoyed every day, ran riot in the house but most of all he was first for cuddles and the most gentle obedient little pup anyone could wish for. We made inquiries and had consultations around the best options to manage his missing toes but the decision was that he was functioning perfectly without any intervention so that the best option for Keiko was to do nothing. Rosalie already knew where a great home would be for this little guy but it was decided that he would be fostered with a view to adopt as there were two other Dachshunds and also two larger dogs, chickens and two families for Keiko to love. This family were also mourning the loss of two very senior girls and was a little too soon they thought Well Keiko had other ideas, he loved everyone from the start and just fitted in, we think the senior girls could see how unhappy their Mum was and sent him from above to help heal the gaping hole left in her heart by their departure. We are so happy to report Keiko has now been adopted and is in his forever home. Meant to be we think

Get Ready to fall in love.  Hunter is a 4 year old desexed male with beautiful breeding inside and out.  He is very loving and playful, a big boof of a boy who gets on well with all humans and canine members of the family.  Initially a bit wary of the males in his foster family, he is now devoted to them, an enthusiastic welcome committee, study companion, gardener and foot warmer.  He particularly loves his walks and adventures in the car, is keen on the water, but prefers to be with his people all the time and would be suited to a household where there is someone at home often.  You will know where that person is as he will be lying at their feet (usually the lady of the house).  He has been wonderful with his foster family’s senior dogs and they will miss playing with him, however because of his strength and size he would be suited to a household with younger dogs or a larger dog.  When he came to All4Dachshunds he was very frightened and traumatised and he needs firm boundaries to relax and thrive, otherwise he will take on the role of protector and this could lead to undesirable aggressive behaviours.  For that reason we would prefer him to go to a calm home without young children.  He has done incredibly well in a short space of time but will need a confident owner who will love him enough to put his needs first and fully commit to continuing his training.  This will be ongoing for some time to restore his confidence in humans and teach him how to interact with the world with good manners.  In a safe environment, his irresistible goofy and loving personality comes out and he is just a joy to hang out with.

Bunnings Original owners made the sad decision to surrender him as his skin sibling was not coping with an exuberant sixteen week old puppy and they were convinced there would be a more suitable home for him.

Bunnings went into foster with a family that recently joined All4dachshunds as new carers and quickly made friends with their little female dachshund “Luna”, and also their Labrador puppy who is around the same age. 

Fast forward to today our lovely foster carers have become the latest of our group to join the “failed foster” brigade and now Bunnings is a part of their family as it was love almost at first sight. 

We couldn’t be happier as always it’s all for the Dachshunds first and Bunnings is one happy loved little boy loving his new family

 Meet Arnold the most adorable little chocolate boy who unfortunately just didn’t get get along with the senior lads in his family, so his former owner made the absolutely heart breaking decision to ensure his safety by asking us to find him another home where he would be loved and cared for. 

Arnold lived on the coast of NSW so an urgent call was extended to one of our amazing volunteers and Arnold hitched a ride to Brisbane, we didn’t have a local carer nearby and Arnold needed to move urgently.

Arnold was fostered by a family including another little female dachshund and human siblings, the youngest being three years old. 

He thrived in their care especially as the ball that Arnold loves was thrown regularly for him to catch.

Fast forward to present time and Arnold has been adopted by a lovely family who fell in love with him from the minute they met him. He has a dachshund sister called Alice Jayne and humans who understand his ball obsession and make sure Arnold has ball time to keep him happy. We are so thrilled   that Arnold has found the perfect home as always its all for the Dachshunds.

  This little girl was surrendered for personal reasons from a young family and had another dachshund mate. She was collected from north of Brisbane by one of our all time supporters who drove six hours round trip picking her up and delivering her to Rosalia for foster and assessment.
She cuddled up to our volunteer on the trip and her tail didn’t stop wagging.
She immediately fit in with Rosalia’s current clan and was then off to the vet for desexing & health check. It was very apparent this little girl was a social butterfly and loved everyone including other Dachshunds and children so it seemed an obvious that she would fit in a home with another dog and / or small children.
We are pleased to announce she has found her FOREVER home and has a new fur sibling and skin brother... the smiles melt our hearts ♥️   

Our beautiful twosome who were looking for their forever home last month, well we are so happy to announce that Doug & Zoe have found their forever home with Bridie and Tim.
We worked closely with Jools from Almost Home Rescue as a joint venture to find their forever home after Jools reached out. After many applications and subsequent phone calls, we provided Jools with a shortlist and she then arranged a meet and greet for Tim and Bridie to meet their beautiful babies.

These little dogs came into care with lots of health issues. Zoe had a grade 4 dental and desex. Doug was also very unsure of men. It didn't take him long to warm to Tim who gave him the time and won him over with his beloved ball. Doug had two retained testes for over 5 years. His surgery was very difficult and took two vets to remove them due to where they were. Doug is now protected from testicular cancer.
We are so happy for these furbabies and also for their new pawrents, they could not have found a more perfect home 

  A little girl from Wide Bay was transported down by volunteers by tag team to go into foster in Brisbane, her name is Peyton (now known as Pey Pey) and she is a gorgeous red standard girl.
 

Peyton was very stressed on the trip down but once meeting her new foster Mum and Dad, she settled and soon was enjoying her long walks with her foster Dad (her foster Dad is allergic to some dogs so it was a huge plus that he had no reaction to Peyton.).
 

Fast forward to a week ago, we asked her foster Mummy for an update to start to look for her forever home, but it seems she had already found it, Peyton has now been adopted by her foster parents, they are her forever parents now and they are all currently on holiday (Peyton too), in far north QLD.
 

Again our heartfelt thanks to our foster careers and their commitment to our little rescues. We love nothing more than seeing a successful adoption, even if we lose a carer in the process, as it’s all about the Dachshunds first ♥️ 

  Our two five year old Black and Tan twin boys who needed to find a new home. It was almost déjà vu for our wonderful foster carer Shailea, as only four weeks before she had had Max and Herbert the twin Black and Tan one year olds.
Frank and Noodle settled in with Shailea relearning toilet training (as they had been outside for a while and had forgotten this important part of inside living ) and also that they didn’t have to greet new people with happy nips for attention, they soon realised that everyone would share the pats and love without this silly behaviour.
Fast forward to three weeks ago, again poor Shailea put her fosters onto a flight to their new forever home as Rosalia had a lovely gentleman and his Dad who had recently lost their beautiful standard boy to old age, on the wait list. Their new home had an existing fur brother so it was fingers crossed that everyone would be happy with the new additions. We are told the new family unit is working well and both Frankie and Noodle love their new BIG fur brother and their Dad and Granddad and are looking forward to going on holiday to the “shack” out on acreage in the near future. Again we thank our wonderful foster carer and also the people who open their homes and hearts to give our rescues a new forever home
