BIO: 

Hi, I’m Abby!  I’m a happy little girl and my tail shows it!  I love playing in the yard, laps,  toys, the big bed and FOOD!  I guess that last one is why I need to lose a pound or so.  I will  steal the other hounds’ food if given the chance so I get to eat in a room all by myself.  I’m  adorable and fun, want to bring me home?    Abby is precious.  She is loving and playful, a good traveler and a great lap warmer.  Abby  prances when she walks and is a girlie girl.  She will be a splendid addition to any family, but  unless you are home a lot, she would like another young dachshund for company.  

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.
