My granddaughter fell in love with a mutt puppy at a PetSmart adoption event, and my daughter adopted him. He's a dachshund mix of some kind, about 11 weeks old.
He went to the vet today. He has a URI and came home with antibiotics. He weighs a whopping 6 pounds.

He is adorable and I am happy to see how close he and Bella have become already!
He certainly is a cutie....what a face!! And if he is part JRT yes....the adolescence is going to be a "killer"....LOL....
Now that he is on antibiotcs and feels better, Peanut is becoming a spunky little thing. Reportedly very smart, he is doing well with housebreaking and goes to the door and asks! DD thinks he might be part Jack Russell Terrier. I told her adolescence will be a killer.
Oh, what a cutie! It's great to see him & his new sister getting along so well too. What a lucky little granddaughter you have. I fall in love w/every puppy at adoption events, & nobody ever lets me take them all home.
Peanut and Bella, the resident Golden, are best buddies already.
Welcome Peanut.
My Rudi was 3 pounds at less than 8 weeks when I adopted her. Supposedly she was mini and parent dogs were there and about 10 to 12 pounds but my little girl kept on growing into a standard size at just under 20#. She carries the weight well, isn't fat so either she takes after one of her grandparents or the private home misrepresented that was the parent dogs. But I love my Rudi and 20# fits well actually as she is curled up next to me now.
I hope your granddaughter loves her doxie mix. I was told to walk her using a halter since the breed are prone to spine issues. And to limit the jumping and stairs use too.
hugs, Josie
