She lost her person at 10 years old...

For 10 years, this Dachshund X named Twiggie had a home. She had all the little comforts that come with being part of a family. Then, through no fault of her own, everything changed. Her owner had to move into an old-age home and couldn’t take her along.

Now Twiggie finds herself here with us. She is really confused and anxious as to why everything has suddenly changed.

Even though we’ve moved her into the clinic where she has more space and more attention, she still struggles to settle. She spends much of her day panting and walking back and forth, as if she’s searching for the person she’s spent the last decade loving.

Despite the change, she still wants every bit of affection she can get. She will also happily, and obviously, accept any treats that come her way.

She’s good with other dogs, has shown no reaction to our cats, so she would fit beautifully into almost any family willing to open their heart to an older dog.

What Twiggie needs is a place where she can finally stop pacing, stop searching, and simply know that she belongs again.

If you would like to give Twiggie the second chance she so desperately needs, please contact us on 082 677 8086. If you can’t adopt, please share her story. Somewhere out there may be the family who can give this little old lady her happy ending.
