Smiling Dachshund Avril who lost her elderly partner and is currently at the RSPCA Preston needs a home
How could you say no to that face.
A beautiful seven-year-old Dachshund named Avril is currently at the RSPCA in Preston waiting on her forever match.
This lovely lady has not had the nicest start to her stay within the kennels as sadly she lost her elderly partner shortly after arriving.
Understandably, as a result, she can be occasionally vocal and unsettled in kennels. She must have been feeling lonely!
However, she has started making friends with other dogs and they often go on offsite walks together.
Avril enjoys her walks and exploring. She can be a sassy lady when it does come to her appearance.
She does not appreciate her teeth being looked at but she has previously had dental issues which must have caused her pain. She is on the mend now though after some dental work and TLC.
A spokesperson for the RSPCA said: “Avril is a bit of a foodie which is very helpful with her training, ad will surely be a great tool for any future dental checks!
“Avril loves a good cuddle and scratch but she does also have an independent side.
“She is unbothered by strangers and other dogs, which has made her a great little helper for dog introductions and dog socials as she is so chill.
“She enjoys playing with soft toys, and she loves a good nibble on her teddies”
She would be best suited to a home with children 11+.
She could live with another dog, as long as introductions go well here at the centre, but Avril would prefer a household with no cats.
This assessment is ongoing and subject to change.
