BIO:  Fritz was found as a stray in Florida and was turned into a vet clinic, and we were asked if we would take him. Fritz was shy at first, but given a little time, he warms up, and then he wants to be your lap buddy. While he’ll play with other fosters in the home, he still likes his humans best.

Our must-haves for adorable Fritz include:

• A fenced yard
• other small young dog has to be energetic as Fritz loves playing and running in the back yard chasing squirrels
• Another young, small dog for him to play with and keep him company when you are not around
• Someone who can be home more often than not
• Sorry, no apartments, high-rises, or condos (anything with shared walls)

If you can meet all these requirements, then please go to the website and complete our online adoption application. Fritz is waiting for that great forever home! 

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