Update from Oz's foster mom: I think Oz is just the best dog in the whole world. He loves everyone and is a great kisser. He listens and comes on command . He thinks he is a lap dog, but is a bit too big, There is absolutely nothing bad to say about Oz. He is beautiful, healthy, well trained and very loving to all. He really has to kiss his other dachshund friends goodnight before going to bed. What a sweety!
Ozzy is a 10 year old beauty. Black and tan standard dachshund about 15 pounds. LOVES to run and sniff. We are working on getting him to be more trusting and come when he is called. He would do best with some room to run- a nice fenced in yard or an adult who can spend some time hiking in the woods. I think an adult home would be best - Ozzie is very sweet and loves attention. A really great dog. BIO:
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.

Good with Dogs, 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.
