NATHAN was being given away free, we aren't sure why and where he really came from. What we do know is that he has not had a very good life. We think he was abused but with love and a little time he does learn to trust you so he hasn't given up on the human race. We think he was either branded or burned on his back. He has an X on his back that's just about perfect. No hair grows there so that means it had to be pretty deep. He is sweet, gets along with all the other dogs here and wants attention once he knows that you can be trusted. It's sad to look at his back and wonder what happened to him but I have promised him that he'll never be put through that again. Will you help me keep that promise to him?
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, 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.
