Cameron

Cameron — a 2-year-old, red smooth hair Dachshund — was dumped at a shelter because his owner “didn't want to bother with him anymore.” Tux tie in place, he was photographed — and then adopted by Dachshund lovers whose previous pup died from old age. When his new owners met Cameron, they just "clicked”!
