Dakoda is a dachshund mix and is the responsible one in the group.  She hangs with mom and Cocoa.   She is one of the longest and largest of the pack.  She's darker on the back.  She's a lovely, lovely girl.  She loves to play with the others yet she prefers to sleep alone.  I adore this puppy for her determination and sensibility.  She wants to please and I just want to say to her 'relax honey, just enjoy life'.  She's usually one of the first to the food bowl.

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.
