BIO:  Hello!  They call me “The Big Boy” because I’m bigger than all my siblings. If you could see me you’d say I might have some boxer in me, and I’m cute and SWEET. While I may be the biggest I’m also the gentlest of all my brothers and sisters. I’m not shy, but I’m not one of those “crazy puppies”.  I love to be held and I’ll cuddle right into you. So if you are looking for a little cuddle bug at the end of a hard day, I just might be the one you are looking for.

I came from central Alabama with my mom and 7 other brothers and sisters and we are all looking for homes. We’d love it if two of us could find a home together, but if I get a home with a fenced in yard and another dog or cat to play with, I’d be real happy. Please email my foster mom if you’d like more info on me but don’t wait too long my cuteness is infecting people all over the country!! 

AADR does not recommend dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a dachshund's back or get bitten.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers that will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast and mid-west. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. For now, please look for dogs on your coast.
