Wiener Dog Rescue Blog

Canadian Dachshund Rescue (Ontario) is an all-volunteer rescue organization that rehabilitates and rehomes dachshunds in Ontario. All dogs that enter our program are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and have their immediate medical needs seen to. The dogs stay in foster homes until new homes are found for them. Because we’re all volunteers and we help dogs from our own homes, we have very low overhead costs so more of your donations can go directly to medical bills for the dogs. We’ve been operating since 2001 and have placed over 700 dachshunds in new homes.

This blog is the dog’s side of the story. It’s written by dogs for dog lovers. Some dogs have been in one home since puppyhood, some were adopted years ago, some are newly adopted, and some are waiting for homes. All of them have a unique personality and perspective. For them rescue is not about business or politics, it’s about life and love.

This May 13th why not treat mom (or yourself!) to some great Dachshund S’wag jewellery? Sarah has been kind enough to offer a 10% donation on purchases when CDR is quoted! So go ahead, order yours today and show mom some wiener style love!

We are pleased to announce CDR is throwing a meet and greet PAWTY at Impressive Canines in Kitchener this March 31st! Come out and meet adoptable wiener dogs, watch agility and rally demos, speak to a behavioral coach, bid on silent auction items and much, much more!!! Sure to be a blast, don’t miss it!

Ernie insisted we let you all know he hopes you have a fun Doxie filled weekend! Looking for a doxie to enjoy YOUR weekend with? Why not consider adopting Ernie- a great mini boy who’s oodles of fun and crazy cute! I mean, not any dog can look good wearing a leopard print onesie! Ernie can be found on our Available Dogs page.

We here at CDR love Fridays, and love them even more when we can say there are so many pending adoptions for deserving Doxies! In fact, a few have made it into our Happy Tails recently, so check them out and follow us on Facebook for all the great stories.

Enjoy your weekend!

Recently beautiful Bella was adopted to a loving home. We couldn’t be more pleased to receive some pictures of her relaxing in her comfy new surroundings and sporting a great wee sweater!

Thanks for the updates and all the best to the new happy family!

We here at CDR wish you all a great weekend, so here’s a funny to start it off right. Enjoy!

CDR has created a set of flyers to promote awareness for our need of more foster homes. Please share them, post in your community, or why not volunteer to open your hearts and homes to some Dachshund’s in need? It’s temporary, saves lives and is very rewarding.
