BIO: DOOGIE IS A GENTLEMAN AT HEART. HE IS CAUTIOUS WITH STRANGERS BUT EVENTUALLY HE WARMS UP TO EVERYONE. HE IS HOUSEBROKEN, CRATE TRAINED, HE GETS ALONG WITH OTHER DOGS, HIS FAVORITE TOYS MUST HAVE SQUEAKERS…LOL. DOOGIE LOVE TO CUDDLE AND EAT ALL OF THE ATTENTION THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE TO GIVE HIM. HE IS AVERY LOYAL DOG THAT WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR THAT SPECIAL HUMAN COUNTERPART. I WOULD RECOMMEND THAT HE DOES NOT GO TO SOMEONE THAT HAS SMALL CHILDREN UNDER 6 YEARS OF AGE.

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.
