BIO (5/15/2018):  ​Lokey came into rescue with his brother from a family in Tennessee.  They were owned by a young woman who departed for college and her family could not take in any other pets to watch so she surrendered them to us to find them a home like yours.  

Lokey is an extremely agile and quick dog.  His furever family will need to be very attentive to him as he could easily escape your home through an open door or window.  He has very long legs and may be mixed with a cat based upon his leaping and acrobatic abilities, LOL!   

A fenced yard is a MUST for Lokey.  He needs to be able to run to help expend energy as he is so young.  He will do best in a home with another dog since he has ALWAYS had a sibling to play with, but if there are no other pets, his adopter must be home most of the day as he likely will experience separation anxiety.  He sleeps all night in his kennel and is well trained to using a doggie door to a fenced yard.

​Lokey​ will make you so happy and is sure to put a huge smile on your face!  ​He would love to be your new best friend!  If you have any questions about ​Lokey​, please contact us at the foster’s email address.  We’d love to tell you all about him!  

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.
