BIO:  If you are looking for a pup that will follow you around and want kisses, cuddles, and to be close to you, this is your boy! Pip's owner moved and couldn't take this big boy with her. Pip is super loving! He loves kisses and cuddles, almost too much... lol! Pip loves to chase toys and bring them back to you. I think he could do this for hours. He really needs someone that will play with him and take him for walks. However, another dog that will play with him could work too. Pip is a solid standard dachshund and very strong. If you need a dog to pack up and down stairs, this boy isn't for you. He's a big fella.

Pip is very vocal (with a little whine) when he wants something. He does bark some if you leave but will nap too. When it's time to sleep, Pip would rather be in his human’s bed but will sleep in the dog bed next to the human bed. 

Our must-haves for Love Bug Pip include:

• A fenced yard
• Another dog to play with would be great
• Someone who is home a lot as he likes being with his people
• No apartments, high-rises, condos, or duplexes

If you meet all these requirements and wish to give Pip a better life, please apply for him... he’ll be waiting for you.

============== 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.
