BIO:  One word describes Dalton... "AWESOME"!

You can see his big, expressive eyes, which he'll definitely use to try to charm you out of your food. But we all know that is not good for this breed. Dalton came from a shelter in Alabama and was an owner surrender to the shelter. We aren't sure why this boy found himself in a shelter, but we can tell you that we are lucky we got to pull him. He's happy, friendly, and likes everyone including other dogs. He's just a great all-around boy. He did lose 10 teeth but no canines. This one is an easy keeper.

Our must-haves for sweet Dalton include:

• A fenced yard
• Another adult, small dog to keep him company when you have to be gone
• No apartments, condos, or high-rises
• Someone who can be home more and not crate him as he is fine outside of a crate when you do have to be gone

If you have been looking to add another member to your family, Dalton would be a great fit! Please think about it and then apply, he won't be available long.

============== 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 dachshund’s back or get bitten.

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed on the bio form.  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 in which they are being fostered. 

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 any 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.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend.  We have volunteers who will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or Midwest.  We just can't get them from one coast to the other.  Please look for dogs on your coast.
