They were crossing the road that they always cross when his friend got hit by a car. Laying there in the road GEORGIE stood over him and crying couldn't understand why his friend would get up and keep going with him. Lucky for GEORGIE a wonderful man ran thru traffic and picked up GEORGIE so he wouldn't become a victim himself. He was then taken to a dachsie friendly lady who in turn contracted us. Lucky for GEORGIE we have a member in Knoxville and she said she'd get him right away. He has been fully vetted, chipped and heartworm negative and had all his shots. He is ready to go to his new home and stop his wandering and keeping himself out of danger. His foster mom said he is very very sweet, housebroken and good with kids and other dogs. We don't know about cats. If you are interested in GEORGIE or want to know more about him just e mail his foster mom at the address above. If you are interested in adopting him please fill out an app. You won't be sorry as he has a lot of love to give. WE WILL NOT SHIP OUR DOGS CARGO, TOO MANY HORROR TALES HAVE HAPPENED FOR US TO FEEL COMFORTABLE DOING THIS. IF WE CAN'T TRANSPORT BY LAND THEN YOU'LL HAVE TO FLY TO THE CITY THAT THE DOG IS BEING FOSTERED IN TO GET HIM/HER. Out of state and Canadian adoptions are welcome. We have several transporters that for a fee will bring the dog as close to you as possible up the Eastern seaboard or down to FLORDIA. A home visit is required on all adoptions. We also micro chip all our dogs and must pass the cost on to the adopter. It is only $10.00. Thank you for your interest in a rescue.To fill out an application for this dog please go to www.ssdr.org and fill out an app. we will be in touch shortly to do a phone interview. It is also best to have a dog in mind that you would like to adopt or if you don't please let us know that you'd like a dog that best fits your lifestyle. Keep in mind that we are all volunteers and have other obligations so please let your references and vet know that we will be calling to vai all info that you put on your application. If you use two vets then please let us know that so we get all info on your dog possible to determine if you are a suitable home for our dog. If you do not let us know these things this maybe the factor that you will be turned down to adopt one of our dogs.

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.
