Dachshund Rescue NW & Dachshund Club of Spokane

I can’t thank Margo enough for all she’s done for us and our newest addition. Keep up the great work, Margo!

This Rescue has a heart for dogs and this breed. I have visited this location and have been impressed by their devotion and commitment. If you are SERIOUS about adopting a Dachshund from them be prepared to commit to the responsibility. And if you are releasing your dog to them know that they are in loving hands.

It’s a shame that people who don’t appropriately care for their dogs feel the need to badmouth a truly respectable rescue organization. I have quietly supported Margo and this organization from behind the scenes for years and have found her to be nothing but honest, responsible, and have the dogs AND owners (past and pending adopters) best interests in mind.

This is for the woman that gave her 3 dogs up to Margo Mossburg. If I ran a rescue, I would not give the dogs back to you, either. Just the idea you would give your dogs up would be a huge red flag. This is something you should have thought about and made sure you were not going to regret your decision.

Margot pays close attention to her charges and carefully screens new potential parents. Some dogs come from neglectful or abuseive situations and she will not place them with just anybody. My next dachshund is coming from Her rescue and I know she will make a good match. She makes sure it is a good match for the family they are going to and more importantly good for the dog. Don’t believe the negative reviews, they are false.

This Margo Mossburg is a fraud!!! We talked back and forth via facebook messaging and I felt like she was a good lady. I looked her up on here and so I gave her my Three dog Teedo, Teela and Chico when i got home my kid and I we’re heart broken so I messaged her the same day telling i made a huge mistake and if i could come up there and get my dogs. She finally messaged me back the next morning say the two we’re ok but that the dad teedo was not doing good and said no i could not come get them that its forever!!! And then I stated know one told me that and i begged her to give them back i even contacted a lawyer and he said that i didnt sign anything and it hadn’t been 48 hours she should release them to me. Then I got on the rescue site told her very nicely what the lawyer had said and again begged her to give them back to me and she blocked me from that site as well. I’m devastated that this has happened. She is all about money she most not really care about the dogs she told me her self that they we’re scared. Dont ever think this lady really cares about the dogs its all about the money!!! I seriously cant believe this lady has been in business sense 1991. Im sure im not the only one she has done this to. People change their mind all the time. It was just a couple hours later. My whole house hold is heart broken by this lady’s actions!!! Please people do not use this lady she is only about getting payed and if i knew that ahead of time she would never of got my doge in the first place:(she has blocked me so i Cant contact her at all who does that? Im just wanting my dogs back that i have had for years:(I ‘am truly saddened by this.

Margo runs this rescue like a well oiled machine. She knows just about everything there is to know about this breed and many others. I adopted a wiener dog from her December 2012 and she was amazing. She usually does home inspections but because we were coming from the Seattle area I just had to show her pictures of the yard. We took our other dachshund with us to meet our new potential family member. We came in and let our pup get comfy before she took out any of her dogs to meet.
She gave our new family member a 5-​way shot before we left and had us wait for a few minutes (because sometimes they can react) and thank goodness we waited because he did have a reaction. She wasted no time she got a Benadryl and gave it to him right away. Within 5 minutes he was back to feeling better.
After that short scare we began our 4 hour journey home.
She has provided us training tips and just general tips for have 2 dachshunds and not just 1 anymore and getting them acclimated together.
She tells you to email her anytime with any questions you might have.
Margo is an amazing rescuer! If you can — rescue from here. She is doing a great job!
Margo makes sure that each dachshund is ready for a new home and won’t send them home if she doesn’t feel right about it, or your current dog seems like they won’t mesh.
If we ever decide to get a third dachshund we will be coming here first. Even though it was a 4 hours drive there and 4 back, I would happily do it again for another quality family member.
