Team TFPF traveled with Darla across the country to Darla's forever home!
TFPF rescued Darla from a family who wanted to put her down because they no longer had any time for her, and did not wish to deal with her special needs. They enjoyed having her around as a puppy, but no longer wanted her after they learned she would be forever "handicapped."
Sweet Darla is a six-year old, Dachshund . She is paralyzed as a result of Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) that is very common in this breed. She is incontinent and needs the help of a care-giver to express her bladder to go potty.
Despite her special-needs, Darla is a trooper. She moves around like a cute seal, kisses everyone to greet them, burrows under the bed covers to be by your side, and loves to snuggle up to your side on the couch. She is great with kids, cats, dogs, and every person on the planet . Darla will hop around at the sight or smell of a dog treat, and will even fetch her treats. She just wants to give love to others.
