Julianna is a four year old female red longhair sweetheart of a dachshund. She is a very timid girl due to being a puppy mill breeder. She will never respond well to discipline but praise is the way to help build her trust. Julianna will need to be kept in a fenced yard as she does not do well on a leash. In the house she likes the security of a carrier or other enclosed space. She is not bothered by other animals, cats, dogs, or medium sized parrots. I think she has real potential to be a sweet lovable lap dog but will take lots of paticence. Julianna is up to date on shots and medical treatments. She is not completely house broken but she will use a training pad if it is provided but that is not foolproof. Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Good with Dogs, Good with Cats, Is Not Good with Kids
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.
