BEING FOSTERED IN CENTRAL/EASTERN FLORIDA

SPORT was surrendered by his owner, a backyard breeder, who could no longer care for the animals. His intended use was to be as a stud but I doubt, because of his age, he was ever utilized. SPORT had minimal contact with people and was very skiddish. He seemed to have bonded with my wife, almost immediately, but took a little while to warm up to me. In a matter of 2 weeks he has come out of his shell and is a pure delight to be around. His temperment is such that he should make a great pet for some deserving family. Truth be told, we will genuinely miss him as soon as he is adopted by a forever family.
Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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.
