Adoptable Dachshund Maxwell

Adoptable Dachshund Maxwell came to Low Rider with his dad, Peanut. They are buddies, however, not bonded. Maxwell needs a home with someone who is retired, works from home and/or does not work. He is a lap dog and loves the attention.

He’s a smart boy who learns fast; and really wants to please his person. Maxwell is a sweet, loving boy and with him you will have your very best friend forever! If your home is open for two dogs, then Maxwell and his dad, Peanut, would complete your family.

Since in our care, Max received a Vet Check, Spay or Neuter, Nails Trimmed, Flea Treatments, Heart Worm testing and medication.

Maxwell barks when he is left behind, but does settle down. He does have some separation anxiety, but doesn’t bark excessively. He doesn’t show any other signs of anxiety, other than wanting to be with his person!

A little bit shy, Max is cautious and wants to make sure you like him before he opens up. Even so, he is friendly with new people once he makes friends. Again, when meeting new dogs, he’s friendly, reserved and shy, but good once he knows they are ‘ok’.

He does not sleep with his foster mom since his dad also there, he would love it though as he enjoys sitting in bed watching TV, right on top of his foster mom. He sleeps well in his own dog bed and sleeps in a crate at night.

Maxwell has been recently neutered, and since that time, has not had accidents in the house like he did the first two weeks. He’s a good boy, house-trained, enjoys walks and does well on the leash.

Maxwell Personality

Although he doesn’t initiate play time with his foster siblings, he does play with them when they want him to. He most definitely enjoys the company of other dogs.

He is scared of his neighbor’s cat. It’s likely he would be fine with one after he got use to them. We don’t know how he does with children or big dogs as he has not been around them during his stay at the foster home. It’s likely that as long as they are not aggressive, he would adjust.

Maxwell is a sweetheart and a young dog who needs a bit of reassurance when getting to know you or other dogs, but once he’s been made to feel at home is a joy to be around. If you’re retired or work from home, he could be the one for you! If you’re looking for two dogs, he is close to (but not a bonded pair with) his dad, Peanut.

If you believe you could provide a safe and loving forever home for this dog, please fill out an application with the dogs’ name on it.

*Be advised, we have a couple of volunteers processing hundreds of applications. We are unable to call everyone back as we do not have ANY employees. Our dedicated volunteers and foster parents will check references of the applications that appear to be a good match. At that time, if you are chosen, we will contact you to arrange a home visit.

The adoption fee helps to cover costs, as each dog is fully vetted, and treated, as needed to prepare them to move forward in their new life. You pay no fee unless you are chosen to adopt.
