💕 Meet Parton 💕
This sweet girl is a 23 lb Dachshund/German Shepherd mix with a medium-to-high energy level and a whole lot of personality. She’s affectionate, smart, goofy, lovable, and food-motivated—with a puppy-like spirit that keeps her family entertained.
🐾 What She Loves
She’s happiest when playing tug-of-war, fetch, or chewing on toys, but also adores learning new tricks, cuddling on the couch, and being near her people. She enjoys following her family around, confidently splashing near water, and hunting mice in the backyard (sometimes sticking her whole face in a hole!). She’ll even chase butterflies, mosquitoes, and bees just for fun.
🚫 What She Doesn’t Love
Squirrels and rabbits are just too tempting—she’ll definitely give chase!
🐶 With Other Pets & People
She does well with dogs and greets them politely on leash with a sniff. Cats are not recommended due to her high prey drive. Children are an unknown, so careful introductions would be needed.
🏡 Her Ideal Home
She’d thrive in a medium-active household that can give her plenty of walks, backyard playtime, and adopters eager to train her and provide mental stimulation.
✨ Quirks & Traits
Climbs stairs three at a time
May chew rocks if bored
Fully house-trained
Barks at the window to “protect” her home but is otherwise quiet indoors
Travels well in the car and walks nicely on leash
🛑 Behavioural Notes
She’s still learning how to settle and cannot yet be left alone loose in the house. She is fully crate-trained, though, and sleeps in her crate at night without issue.
If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and goofy companion who will keep you laughing and active, this little lady might just be the perfect fit for your family.
