Have you seen this guy?

Little Old Man

A friend of mine contacted me the other day about this little guy.  His Dad passed away and “the family” decided it was a good idea to take a 16 year old dachshund to a local kill shelter. *sigh*

The good news is DREAM Rescue of Atlanta has intervened and pulled this little guy out of harms way.  He is in a temporary foster home for now but he needs a furever home.   If you are in the Atlanta GA area and are interested in helping this sweet boy out,  please contact DREAM Rescue through their website http://www.dreamrescue.org/Adopt .  You can also contact them through Facebook http://www.facebook.com/pages/DREAM-Dachshund-Rescue/38166598498
I know there has been a lot of buzz about Little Old Man and I’ve seen such an outpouring of love and concern from folks on Facebook and Twitter.  I’m very proud to be apart of the dachshund community and feel so blessed knowing it’s a community full of love and compassion.  If you are in the Atlanta area and you are in a position to adopt or foster, please contact DREAM Rescue and find out how you can make a difference in the life of a dachshund.

If you can’t adopt or foster, please consider donating.  Rescues are always in need of cash donations to cover medical treatment and donations of supplies such as food and blankets.
