Meet Spencer…….Spencer came into rescue from a hoarder. He is a little shy when meeting new people but he does warm up quickly.  Spencer loves to sit in your lap or play, but he also knows how to patiently wait his turn to be loved on. He gets along great with all his foster brothers and sisters and will play with them for hours. Spencer has not been around small children but would probably be good with dachshund savvy kids 10+. He seems to want to chase cats any chance he gets so a home without cats would be best.

When Spencer arrived he was not house trained but is learning very quickly with a schedule. He is crate trained though. He also walks very well on a leash and enjoys a long stroll in the afternoons. If you are looking for a handsome little walking buddy then Spencer is the man for you. Please fill out an adoption application and give him the forever home he deserves.

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.
