BIO:  Shadow was surrendered due to a divorce when he couldn't be taken on the resulting move. Shadow loves attention and craves it. He had been an outside dog but now he’s looking for a home that will keep him inside all the time. Our wish list for this sweet boy includes:

• A fenced yard
• No male dogs in the home or visiting
• No apartments and high rises
• No cats, birds, or rodents since he has high prey drive

Shadow will need some brushing up on house-training because he’d been put outside, but he’s eager to please and will be easily trained. So if you are looking for a happy boy to go with your female, then you’ve looked in the right place. He’s very active so an avid walker or jogger would be great for him.

============== 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. 

We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport.  If you choose transporting by either volunteers through our organization or by paid transporter, there will be an additional $45 fee added for the required Health Certificate. 

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states.  If you have an issue with this, you need to take this up with your legislatures.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please review Read Before You Adopt and then you can complete an Application.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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 MidWest. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well.  For now, please look for dogs on your coast.

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.
