BIO: Hi, I’m Little Rock. I was born 10/12/2007 to a breeder in Colorodo. My orginal family paid a lot of money for me, but something wasn’t right. I moved to Kentucky with my family but they decided to surrender me to an animal shelter because they had “no time or room” for me. I was quickly rescued by a nice lady who didn’t keep me long because her other dog wasn’t very happy to see me. I thought she didn’t really give me a chance, but… who knows… anyway, I’m in a new home. It’s kinda cool because I have this awesome big back yard… but it’s really cold so I don’t stay out long. The other doggies are cool. A couple of them have been in the concrete cage too. We agree that we like it here much better. I have a warm bed to sleep in, regular meals and lots of love. We all cuddle up with our foster mom when she gets home from work. I can’t stand to be too far away from her. She seems nice, She looks in my eyes, takes my face in her hands and tells me I’m “handsome.” I don’t know about that, but I love getting into the big bed with her and my siblings. The thing is… well, I don’t mean to complain. I’m glad to be here… but I’d like to have my own family, take trips, go on long walks, have a human all to myself. You know, that kind of stuff.  I love to play, but don’t understand why she keeps throwing that round thing and clapping and telling me to bring it to her… whatever! I’m not putting that thing in my mouth… who knows where it’s been! Hey, if you have an extra bed at your house… I don’t eat much. I’m kinda small so I don’t take up much space. I’ll be good, honest. How about it?

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.

If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then there will be an additional $25 fee for the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  Please Read Before You Adopt to learn more about transportation options.  If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and Fill Out an Application.

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.
