Pet of the Week—Willow

Help this adorable canine friend find his forever owner to help him lose his fear of the world!

Hello, I'm Willow. I'm an adorable 1½-year-old Dachshund, short-haired mixed-breed fellow just looking for my hero in the world.

Why do I need someone with great courage and strength? Well, this big old planet just makes me nervous as can be.

I need a big strong human to help me to learn that there's nothing in life to be afraid of!

I'm adorable, sweet and affectionate once I've gotten to know you a little bit and confirmed that you're not the monster that just crawled out of the closet.

Well, I'm pretty sure that people are nice. You can tell by how excited and waggy I get when I'm introduced to a new person!

I just need a little time to warm up so that we can have some petting and snuggle time.
