BIO: 
Bo is a sweet little fellow who was found as a stray and taken to a rural animal shelter.  He has a very calm personality and loves to be with people.  He walks nicely on a leash and enjoys walks around the neighborhood.  In the house Bo plays well with the other dogs or finds a cozy spot to snooze.  He likes to sit in a lap.  Bo is crate trained, but at night prefers to sleep with his people.  Bo is house broken as long as he is taken out on a regular schedule.  He will use a pee pad if left for extended periods.  Bo has not been around young children, but he would be fine with children who understand that they must be gentle with a small dog and that he will sometimes need his own space.  He has not been around cats, but can be introduced to some if you need to know how he does.  
If you are looking for a little buddy with a loving personality and good looks too, then Bo is your man! 

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.
