BIO (12/23/18):  Miriam came from North Carolina where she was used for breeding.  She is very shy and she takes a while to trust, although she does not like to be alone.  Once she decides to trust, she is a very sweet little girl!  She needs patience, understanding, and reassurance as she learns to love.  Miriam has a safe space to call her own, but as she has become more relaxed, she has spent less time there and she is very active and enjoys running around the house.  We are working on her leash and potty training.  She gets along great with our dogs, both large and small, and she would do well in a home with another dog.  A fenced yard is a must so that she can run and play.  Miriam desires a forever family who will give her plenty of love and she will give that love right back to them!    

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.
