BIO:   Meet Ginsberg!

I am a beautiful, full-blooded, standard, black and tan, silky-coat, female wirehair dachshund.  I was rescued from a back-yard breeder in Texas. I’m only two years old and have been spayed and fully vetted.  I’m in great health.

My foster family named me Ginsberg after a supreme court judge known for her "dissents" since, I consistently dissent the household ruling that I am not allowed to chase, harass, or play with the cats.  I think I would be much, much happier in a home without those angry little fluffballs!

I also earned my name because I’m so incredibly smart, love the intellectual challenges of puzzle toys and learning new tricks, and am completely house-trained (something my foster mom didn’t think was possible for a doxie).  In addition, I enjoy hiking in the woods as well as in town, am great on a leash, and like going new places with the humans.  All in all, I am an AMAZING, fabulous, incredible girl ready for a forever home that will care for and adore me for always!

I had a few “tangles” with another doxie in my foster home so it’s probably best that I be an only dog.  If you live close to Kansas City, maybe we could arrange a meet and greet in case you do have another doxie.  You will need to fill out an application first though.  That’s the first step!  Don’t forget we’re looking for a family within 100 miles of St. Joseph MO!

============= Information for All Dogs/Adopters====================

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal.

Please disregard the "Information for All Dogs/Adopters" below as it applies to AADR pups only.

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.
