Abigail Raine—Abby for short—has already learned that not every home is the right one. At just one year old and 15 pounds, this gentle dachshund mix came from a loving family who made the difficult decision to let her go when another dog in the home wasn’t kind to her.

Now, Abby is starting over—and she’s ready for a home where she can finally feel safe, confident, and completely loved.

Her Personality

Abby is a loving little dog with a bright spirit that’s still finding its footing. She’s affectionate, people-oriented, and happiest when she’s close—whether that’s curled up in your lap or trotting alongside you on a walk.

She has a playful, energetic side and would thrive with a companion (human or canine) who can match her enthusiasm for fun. At the same time, she’s been through a lot of change recently, so there’s a softer side to her too—one that just needs a little time and reassurance to fully shine.

🐾 Sweet and cuddly
🐾 Energetic and playful
🐾 Smart and observant
🐾 Loyal and people-focused
🐾 Gaining confidence every day

Her “Confidence Bloom” Sweet Spot

Abby doesn’t need perfection—she just needs patience.

After everything she’s been through, she’ll need a few weeks to settle in, decompress, and rebuild her confidence. But with consistency and kindness, she’ll blossom into the loving, joyful companion she’s meant to be.

What She’s Looking For

✔️ A kind, patient home where she feels safe
✔️ A playful companion with similar energy (dog or human!)
✔️ Daily walks and engagement
✔️ Time and understanding as she builds confidence
✔️ A home where she’ll never be picked on again

Heart of Abby

Abby still believes in love.

Even after being in a situation where she wasn’t treated kindly, she remains sweet, open, and ready to bond. She just needs someone to show her that this next chapter will be different—that this time, she’s truly home.

And once she feels that… she’s going to give her whole heart. 🐾💛
