boscoe

Boscoe is new to DREAM only in his foster home a few days. Boscoe has a number of talents and his foster mom calls him a smart Houdini. He quickly figured out how to open pocket doors to get into another room. He will push doors open if they are not latched. He prefers to stay within sight of his person. He has started snuggling and we are sure he will pass the ultimate snuggles exam with flying colors.
Boscoe is about 90% house trained especially when his cues are picked up and he’s let outside for a potty break.
He definitely needs a secure fenced yard as he likes to explore and looks for ways to escape. He's not shown any signs of being a digger but he has shown tendencies to be a door darter.
Boscoe is very athletic and can jump up on the couch. He's also showing some separation anxiety but getting better. He's good with dogs and people but much prefers his people over another dog.
Boscoe does NOT like to be crated and will chew the metal on the crate as his anxiety escalates being in there. He's not suited for apartment living as he can be vocal-howling and barking, specifically if he isn’t feeling secure. He's getting better and his foster mom thinks he's just having a hard time adjusting to a new environment.
Boscoe has not shown great interest in food or treats and has been a bit picky with both. This also may change as he settles into his foster home.


If you are interested in adopting Boscoe, you can fill out an application right on our website! Go to our online adoption application. Boscoe's adoption fee is $700.

All adoption fees go directly to veterinary care for DREAM dachshunds. Boscoe will go to his / her new home microchipped, spayed/neutered, heartworm tested, up to date on vaccinations, and with all other medical needs addressed.

Almost every dog's veterinary expenses exceed our adoption fees; we are a non-profit.

DREAM is an all-volunteer rescue group. We focus on the metro Atlanta area and can assist throughout the state of Georgia.

Since our rescue is entirely run and staffed by volunteers, our ability to travel long distances for adoptions is somewhat limited. We focus on Georgia, but if you are in a neighboring state, we might be able to work something out - we'll expect you to do your part.

DREAM does not recommend purebred dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a doxie's back.
