NAME....................................ROMEO DACHSHUND.....................PURE/MINI COAT....................................SMOOTH COLOR................................SABLE AGE......................................18 MOS GENDER.............................MALE/NEUTERED WEIGHT...............................10 LBS approx ADOPTION FEE..................250.00+10.00 chip fee contact nashcat50us@yahoo.com MUST HAVE A FENCED IN YARD!!!!! WOMEN ONLY NO CHILDREN OR MEN!! Being forstered in Middle TN...... ROMEO was taken from an abusive home by the man by a lady that thought she was doing the right thing, problem is he came to her home and played too hard with her older dachshund and the older dog hurt his back so the rescue lady had to give up Romeo so in his short life he's been in two homes. You can tell he was abused but he's coming around nicely and we never want him to have to go thru that again, he's too sweet of a dog to have to put up with abuse by a man that thinks he's a big man!! ROMEO is looking for his Juliette, he likes the ladies, female dogs and female humans!! He's very sweet doesn't give a lot of kisses just a few, loves to curl up next to you at night and sleep next to you. Likes to go in and out so must have a FENCED IN YARD. Does fine in a crate. Really this boy is just about perfect so we don't understand why he had to be abused. He is still a puppy at heart. He is neutered, UTD on all shots and on heartgard and frontline. If you want to make this boy a part of your family you need to hurry cause he won't last long. Out of state and Canidian adoptions are welcome, we have several transporters that for a fee will bring the dog as close to you as possible. A home visit is required. 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 interested in a rescue.

Not Good with Cats, Is Not Good with Kids

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.
