Why Adopt Auror and Manji?
Auror and Manji are a bonded pair who thrive on each other’s company. At 7 years old, they’re past the puppy stage but still have plenty of energy and love to share. They’re perfect for someone looking for loyal, affectionate dogs with distinct personalities. Here’s what makes them so special:
- Perfect Pair: Auror and Manji are inseparable, offering double the love and companionship.
- Children: Excellent with children and toddlers
- Adventure-Lovers: They get excited for car rides and are always up for an outing.
- Healthy and Happy: At 7 years old, they’re in great health and ready to settle into a new home.
- Dog-Friendly with Time: They’re fine with other dogs but need slow introductions to settle in comfortably.
Get to Know Auror
Auror, affectionately pronounced “Aura,” is the spirited half of this duo. She’s a small dog with a big personality, always ready to chase after fun or explore the outdoors. Here’s a closer look at Auror:
- Energetic Explorer: Loves running and has a playful streak, especially when chasing bugs.
- Loving Companion: Despite her high energy, she’s incredibly affectionate and loyal.
- Thunder-Shy: She barks at thunder, so a calm environment during storms is ideal.
- Escape Artist: Auror is clever and may try to slip out, so a secure yard is a must.
Auror’s vibrant energy makes her a great fit for an active household where she can burn off some steam and then snuggle up for some quality time.
Get to Know Manji
Manji is the gentle, cuddly counterpart to Auror’s boldness. This sweet boy is happiest when he’s curled up on a lap, soaking up all the love you can give. Here’s what you need to know about Manji:
- True Lap Dog: Manji loves nothing more than cuddling all day long.
- Timid but Affectionate: He’s a bit shy but warms up quickly, showering you with devotion.
- Calm and Quiet: Perfect for someone seeking a relaxed, affectionate companion.
- Loves Comfort: Manji thrives in a cozy environment where he feels safe and adored.
Manji’s easygoing nature makes him a wonderful addition to a home that values quiet moments and plenty of snuggles.
What They Need in a Forever Home
Auror and Manji are currently in a home where they’re left alone during the day, and their barking at cats has become a challenge in their complex. To thrive, they need a home that offers:
- A Secure Space: A fenced yard or secure area to prevent Auror’s escape attempts.
- Attention and Love: They’d do best with someone who can give them time and affection.
- No Cats: Both dogs are afraid of cats, so a cat-free home is essential.
- Calm Neighbors: A quieter environment where their occasional barking won’t disturb others.
- Slow Introductions: If other dogs are present, gradual introductions will help them adjust.
If you work from home or have a flexible schedule, this pair will reward you with endless loyalty and companionship.

About Dachshund Crosses
Dachshund crosses, like Auror and Manji, are small to medium-sized dogs, typically weighing 5-10 kg and standing about 20-30 cm tall at the shoulder. Known for their long bodies and short legs, they combine the classic Dachshund look with traits from other breeds, resulting in unique personalities.
They’re generally healthy, with a lifespan of 12-16 years, but may need regular exercise to maintain a healthy weight (around 30-60 minutes daily). Their grooming needs are moderate, requiring brushing 1-2 times per week for short coats. In South Africa, Dachshund crosses are popular for their adaptability to urban and suburban homes, making them great companions for various lifestyles.
