Success Stories

Bella was surrendered with 3 other dachsies as her Mum was not well enough to care for them. Her first trial was not successful as she suffered from separation anxiety but along came Amanda and her family who were prepared to give Bella a trial .She soon settled in and has endeared herself to the whole family including Maisy and Jack their much loved dachsies. Her Mum writes. "While we pretty much knew that Bella fitted right in with our family within a few hours of getting home, we wanted to make sure she would be happy here before locking it in. I’m very happy to say Bella has endeared herself to the whole family, and we would very much like to make the adoption permanent."

Roxy came to us with 3 other dogs who needed rehoming as their owner was too sick to care for them, so we ideally needed to find a home with an owner who had another dachsie and would be around to give her lots of attention and belly scratches. We found a wonderful family who were around most of the time to give her the attention she craved and of course another female dachsie to keep her company. I am sure she is getting lots of attention and tummy rubs in her new home.

Dudley is a joy to have around, and we are just loving being able to continue his best life. Although a bit nervous around other dogs and people that he doesn’t know, and being in a new home, he is fast learning to be the centre of everyone’s world. He is enjoying long walks along the river and down to the beach and lazy café stops with his two new neighbourhood canine mates, Sunni and Charlie. He is a fierce protector of the garden and likes to help in the veggie patch. And he could play fetch the ball FOREVER! Dudley and his feline sister, Lucy, are tolerating each other and we now feel that our family is complete.

Snoopy, the dachshund, has found his forever home with a beautiful, loving family dedicated to providing all the affection and training he needs. No longer a country boy, Snoopy now enjoys weekends at the beach, soaking up the sun and playing in the sand with his devoted new family. His days are filled with joy, adventure, and the comfort of a caring home. This commitment ensures Snoopy will thrive, enjoying a happy, fulfilling life surrounded by love and new experiences. His transformation from a rural pup to a cherished family member marks the beginning of a wonderful new chapter.

Dash wasn't getting along with his fur brothers, and anguishing decision was made to re home. His family were devasted but knew that he could have a beautiful life in a new home. Enter his new adopter. Talk about wrapping a someone around his paw, Dash has captivated his new owner. He gets home cooked meals, daily walks, well at the moment Dash is taking Daniel for a walk. That is sure to settle. Couch cuddles are on repeat. DRA are so pleased for this little family and can't wait to hear how they continue their life together.
