BIO (8/21/2018):  Are you looking for a young, good-natured, and playful dachshund?  If so, look no further than Floyd!  Floyd has yet to meet a dog or human he doesn’t absolutely love.  He is extremely friendly and outgoing, and loves to play.  He also loves to love, and wants to give kisses to anyone who will let him!

Floyd is rarely found without a toy in his mouth and would do best in a home that is willing to walk or play with him as he is fairly high energy.  A fenced yard is needed so he can run his little heart out!  He would do fine with or without other dogs, though he may benefit from having another dog around to show him the ropes.

He has had a couple of accidents in the house, but seems to understand generally that outside is where he is supposed to go.  He will need a consistent schedule and someone who is willing to work with him as he gets used to a new home.

Contact Kait (kait.cassell@gmail.com) with any questions!

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.
