BIO:  Kandi came from Alabama, turned into a shelter when the owner said they didn’t have time for her. Sadly, they didn’t even have time to give her heartworm prevention and she ended up positive! She has one more treatment for heartworms and will be ready for her forever home the middle of June. Just in time for the kids to be out of school and have a new friend!

Kandi is a great girl and if you like the combination of Dachshund and Beagle, you’ll love her! She’s a little shy at first but warms up. She loves sleeping in the Big Bed or if she chooses, on a dog bed beside your bed.

Our must have for sweet Kandi include:

• A fenced yard
• Someone who is home a lot or works from home
• Another small, youngish dog to keep her company
• Unfortunately, no apartments, high-rises, or condos

After having her for a bit we realized she was probably in a home that either yelled at her a lot or there was yelling in the home because she does not like you to raise your voice. She is very food motivated and will go outside to potty, and she will hold it all night. She is okay in a car but it’s not her favorite thing to do.

============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============

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 dachshunds back or get bitten.

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. 

There will be an additional $60 fee added for a required Health Certificate if traveling out of the state they are being fostered in. 

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 will 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.
