BIO:

Bentley was born from a breeder. The breeder was going to give him and his brother up to a shelter, due to having shorter tails and longer legs than the other dachshunds in the litter. A nice lady wasn't going to let that happened and adopted them both. They grew up healthy in a loving home. Unfortunately, the owner was diagnosed with cancer and she was given a short time to live. She turned Bentley & A.J. over to AADR hoping for them to find another loving home.

Bentley is doing great at his new foster home and is used to going outside using the doggy-door. He gets along well with his other foster brothers but mostly plays with A.J., his birth brother. Bentley has so much energy and loves to play with toys and chase balls. Bentley loves getting attention and will give kisses until you tell him no more. He loves sleeping with his humans, deep under the covers. Bentley would be great with a family with only one other small dog in the house. He seems to do great with kids too. If you are interested in 2 dogs, A.J is available for adoption too.

=============== Information for all dogs/adopters ==============

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above. They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal.

We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. If you choose transporting by either volunteers through our organization or by paid transporter, there will be an additional $50 Fee added for the required Health Certificate.

We will not adopt into the state of ME, CT, RI or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have an issue with this you need to take this up with your legislatures.

We are now approved to adopt/foster in the state of NH but adopters will have to pay health certificate fee of 35.00 once to get the dog to our quarantine facility and another 50.00 fee to get the dog out of quarantine after two days.

To understand the adoption process through AADR please visit the Adoption Information. Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and then you can complete an Application.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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 or up and down the West Coast. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well for now please look for dogs on your coast.
