Rex is an owner surrender due to a divorce situation and he was not good with strangers or strange children who wanted to love him when he does not have tie to warm up to and he nipped at one of their children friend. The husband could not keep him due to travel for work and the amount of time Rex would have to be boarded. He is a small boy who does not take long to warm up to you and once he does he is a total sweetie. Loves to lay on your lap and give kisses and will lay in his own bed. He just needs time to get use to strangers as he is very protective of his home. Will bark and as long as you do not rush to pick him up until he checks you out that is all he will do. A very little boy who loves his toys and bed and you will not even know he is around. Please give this little boy his forever home.
Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Good with Dogs, Good with Cats, Is Not Good with Kids
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.
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 mid-west. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. For now, please look for dogs on your coast.
