BIO: If you are looking for a laid back kinda guy then look no further! Sammy is waiting for you to apply for him. He does well with house breaking, walking on a leash, and meeting new people and other dogs. He’s not alpha but rather just laid back. He loves to sleep in his doggie bed beside you while you relax at night or during the day watching TV or reading. He doesn’t have to follow you all over the house to know that you are there, he trusts that you’re there and when you come home he’ll be waiting.

He did have a small mass on his neck that the rescue had removed and it was sent off to be tested. It was not cancerous so it should not come back.

Sammy rides great in a car as well. We think he’s pretty darn close to perfect... the only flaw he has is if you leave him he may out of spite chew a hole in his bed but we just put him in a gated kitchen with a towel or blanket to lay on and he’s fine.

Please consider giving Sammy his last forever home. He came up from TX as a stray, who wouldn't go looking for this sweet guy?!

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.
