Biography
Choco is a sweet senior standard long-haired dachshund who was given up to a local shelter because his family couldn’t afford to pay for a surgical procedure he needed. DRNA paid for him to have a bilateral perianal hernia repair and now he is looking for his new home. On top of being extremely handsome, he is a very healthy 14 year old senior: good heart, good teeth and good eyes. He is very spry and active for his age and enjoys going for walks, getting belly rubs and being brushed. Choco is very approachable but doesn’t give his heart to everyone. He needs time to get to know you. He is crate trained and appears to be well housetrained - so far no accidents. He isn’t a clingy type of dog at all. He's just an all-around good boy. He’s ready to pack his bags and head on out to his forever family. He is comfortable with both dogs and cats. If you would like to be the one to shower this sweetie with attention and love, please fill out an application today. Adoption fee waived for adopters 60 and over! ****Applicant should be willing to drive to Ellicott City, Maryland (10 miles south of Baltimore) to meet and adopt Choco.****
