About Sunshine and Vanessa

  • Status: Available for Adoption (adoption info)
  • Species: Dog
  • General Color: Red
  • Current Size: 14 Pounds
  • Current Age: 13 Years 1 Month (best estimate)
  • Grooming Needs: Moderate
Sunshine (12 yo) and Vanessa (14 yo) are a bonded pair. Vanessa is tiny and just wants a lap. Sunshine is a barky sassy dachshund girl. Both had recent dentals and had some major extractions. Vanessa is a little hard to keep weight on, and Sunshine is hard to get weight off of.
They both love adventuring in their fosters' yard and going for walks. They both love laps and attention. Both are very loyal and loving and chill. Reliability housebroken and crate trained.
Sunshine did have an IVDD episode recently where she woke up one day unable to use any of her legs. With some meds and rest, she recovered. We can’t guarantee that won’t happen again, but she shouldn’t do a lot of stairs, jumping, etc. That should help prevent reoccurrences.
The girls haven’t been spayed yet. We focused on their dentals as they both have heart murmurs and didn’t want them to stay under too long. We always spay our dogs, but there has been some debate as to whether we should spay these girls. We can discuss that with their adopter!
These girls have a momma who loves them desperately but can’t care for them anymore near Winchester, VA. We would request that the adopters stay in touch with her daughter or at least share updates with K Kids that we can share with the family.
Go to kkidsrescue.org to apply. The adoption fee is $200 each.
