Hotdog! All 6 rescued dachshunds in Brevard County find forever homes

BREVARD COUNTY, Fla. — Six sausage dogs are savoring their second chances in forever homes after being adopted from a Brevard County shelter this week.

The six dogs were among a group of 13 dachshunds rescued by SPCA of Brevard Adoption Center last month after their owner passed away. The seven other dogs were reunited with their legal owners and co-owners.
