Chennell B. from Bozeman, Montana, contacted us last week about adopting Twist, our Dachshund with the rear leg that juts out at an angle. Twist has been with us about a year and a half, and is a sweet, lovable guy. He's a good-sized Dachshund with a very long body. This handsome boy's only problem is that leg. Yet, as I told Chennell in an email, "We don’t really consider him disabled because it just isn’t an issue for him. He’s a real character, and there are times we wish that leg would slow him down a little!" He is amazingly fast and agile, and when he wants to move really fast, he tucks the leg out of the way and takes off.
Chennell drove up from Bozeman this afternoon to visit Twist, and quickly fell in love with him. At first Twist was oddly subdued, and we joked with Chennell about how we'd never seen him so mellow before! But all it took was a walk alone with Chennell and a little one-on-one time, and pretty soon, well, Twist was a kissing fool:
So the deal was sealed with a kiss, you might say, and Chennell took Twist home to Bozeman with her.
Thank you, Chennell!
