Spartacus here! I am a dachshund who was born on July 1st, 1998. Sadie and I were living with our owner when he suddenly died. So, we spent some time in the pound and we eventually went home to a place with 7 other dachshunds already. What a crazy place!Spartacus and his partner Sadie lived in Augusta, Maine for a very long time. Sadly, their owner recently passed away, leaving Sadie and Spartacus without a home. They ended up in the Kennebec Valley Humane Society, the same place that our Auggie was rescued from just 9 months earlier.Sadie dealt with her new situation well, but Spartacus did not. He was pretty freaked out for a while, but eventually he calmed down. Both Sadie and Sparty were overweight and Sadie had some skin issues and some matting in her fur. But I was soon headed to Augusta to pick up the pair to prepare them for adoption through DRNA.Well, After just a short time in our house, my wife declared that these guys were already home and that we are not adopting them out. So, they are now officially the 8th and 9th members of our gang. They are now officially Weinerdogs!
