BIO:

Penta is now heartworm free and ready to find her forever home!!

PENTA came from a kill-shelter in AR. She was pulled by a small breed rescuer and then we were contracted to take her. She is unfortunately heartworm positive so will have to go thru treatment and will be ready for her forever home the 1st of Sept. Penta is very sweet and friendly and gets along with other dogs, we don't know about cats. Probably kids 10 yrs and older would be fine. She does like to get out in the yard and wander around so we are hoping for a fenced in yard for this little girl. She will have a dental before she goes to her new home and will be heartworm free and will come with a 6 mos supply of HeartGard to keep her on it and then will need to be retested after the 6 mos to make sure she is heartworm free. Many times heartworm positive dogs will test positive up to 4 mos after treatment. We think that she would make a great pet for anyone wanting a calm sweet girl that just wants to be loved.

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 $35 fee for the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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.
