Hi Everyone – this handsome guy is Ramsey! Ramsey was surrendered by his owner because he had too many dogs. Ramsey is a real sweetheart and is the ultimate lapdog. Don’t get me wrong, he has plenty of energy, but his most favorite place to be is in your lap. He loves to be with his people and if a lap is not available he will be playing with his toys or following his people around the house. Ramsey gets along great with my other dogs and is well behaved. We are still working on his potty training skills and he is very good if kept on a regular schedule and is encouraged to take care of business when he is outside.
Ramsey came to us with a severe flea allergy so he must be kept on a flea preventative. Otherwise he is healthy, good natured, a good eater, a great companion and has a face that will melt your heart.

Good with Dogs, 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.
