Biography
Bert and Ernie are 6 year old brothers bonded since birth and were surrendered to DRNA on 11-21-2015. We were told that the owner was getting too old and could no longer take care of them properly. The brothers are hands down the most sweetest, gentlest dachshunds I've ever come acrossed. Bert, a little shy rolls over on his back and shows you his belly every chance he can get and loves to be held like a baby. Ernie on the other hand has alittle more outgoing personality and has to see where you are or what your doing at all times and wants to be center of attention, sometimes trying to steal his brothers thunder. Even with two different personalities they both compliment each other very well and where one goes the other needs to follow.
When you go near either of them all you hear is their tails smacking against something simultaneously. It's the cutest thing. They both are such happy go lucky pups. For never being crate trained they are excelling at it one day at a time. They came from a home where they went outside to do their business but are also paper trained. They enjoy bath time but are not huge fans of having their toenails clipped. They walk well on leashes together, and gets along with other dogs and kids. Not sure how they are around cats though. They love being couch potatoes laying side by side curled up together and are bed hogs when they sleep with us at night.
Right now they are both being nursed back to health. On Monday November 23rd they got neutered and dentals done. Bert only lost 4 teeth but poor Ernie lost a whopping 18 teeth. They are doing considerably well given the circumstances. they go for their 2 week checkup the beginning of December to get the green light to be adopted to a family that will love them furever. Are you that family? They are currently being fostered in Seven Hills, OH and would love to meet you!
Their adoption fees are $275.00 each. Please fill out an application at www.drna.org
