BIO:  Hi there!  My last couple months have not been the happiest.  You see, my mom died about 3 months ago then something bad happened in the house where she had been living.  Someone was supposed to be coming over to take care of all of us but he didn’t.  So, we were basically abandoned in the house our mom died in.  That’s when one of the relatives decided to get in touch with rescue, so here I am.

I’m a shy little girl and need a calm voice and gentle way because if you don’t, then I’m going to be too scared to do anything.  I want to trust, but it takes me time, do you have time?  I would do better with someone that’s home a lot and another well socialized dog to learn from.  I want so badly to please.

I’m not an alpha girl, just laid back and go with the flow.

I do want a fenced-in yard because I love laying out in the yard when it’s nice out and just dreaming my day away.  You can dream with me too if you like, just you and me, how does that sound?

I need help with house-training but please don’t hit me or yell at me because I won’t learn that way.  Just give me a treat when I do good and ignore when I forget.  I promise I’ll get there.

I’m still learning that leash thing but hey, I’m young!  Please give me a chance, I don’t want to be homeless again.

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.
