BIO:  Murray is a fun little boy!  He loves to pal around with other small dogs.  His favorite times of the day are running around the back yard, lying in the sun, taking walks and curling up in the big bed when it is time to go to sleep.  He is the cutest and sweetest little boy!  He follows you around the house to each room.  If you stop to do something, he will find a little spot to curl up on.  He is very well behaved and understands some commands.  He would do best in a home with a fenced in back yard.  He loves to run in big circles and play with his foster brother and sister.  Although he has had little training, he responds quickly.  He is a little diamond in the rough just waiting to be loved!!!  He would be a great addition for a couple who have another small dog!        

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.

If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then there will be an additional $25 fee for the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  Please Read Before You Adopt to learn more about transportation options.  If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and Fill Out an Application.

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.
