Francisco is a sweet, spirited young dachshund who’s just beginning his big adventure in the city after arriving from Alabama. At only a year old, he still has plenty of puppy energy—he loves to jump around (go Badgers), explore, and can be a little mouthy when he's excited (he’s still learning what’s okay to chew on!). He's working on leash, crate, and potty training. He hangs out in his crate while his foster goes to work and sleeps and has been barking less every day. He is probably 70% potty trained, he goes outside the majority of the time, but will occasionally use a puppy pad if he needs to.

City life is new and sometimes overwhelming for him, so Francisco isn’t shy about using his voice to let you know when he’s feeling unsure or scared. He’s slowly learning that humans can be kind and trustworthy, and he’s making progress every day with patience and consistency.

Francisco would thrive with an adopter who understands that building trust takes time and who can offer him a calm environment. He has some training in progress, but he has all the potential to become a loyal, loving companion with the right guidance.

If you're ready to help this little guy blossom and show him what a forever home feels like, Francisco is ready to meet you—puppy wiggles and all!
