BIO:  

We suspect that Emma didn’t have a very good beginning to her life. She has been with us over a week and is still shy and if we reach out for her too quickly or pick her up and she thinks we are going to hurt her she’ll cry out. It’s getting less and less but just so she doesn’t stress we talk to her softly and pick her up gently. She’s a very kind little girl, shy but is also happy to be in your lap and get love.  We think with some stability to her life and gentle love she’ll blossom. If you have the desire to fix a wounded soul than this little girl is the girl you want. It’ll take some work and patience but the payoff with be immense.

She loves to lay with you on the couch and enjoy her human and canine friends. Consider giving her a lasting and forever home. The rewards will be “priceless”.

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.
