BIO:   Pedro is a wonderful, wonderful dog!  He has been a gentleman in his foster home.  He gets along extremely well with the three female mini dachshunds that are full time residents in the house and has mostly gotten along with male dogs that have visited.  For that reason, we can heartily recommend female dogs as companions, and male dogs with some reservation.

Pedro came into rescue because his owner suddenly passed away and the children did not want to keep him.  His teeth were in pretty bad shape and he had to have 20 teeth removed.  For this reason, his food has to be softened for him, but he gobbles it right up, so there is no concern there.

He has never soiled his crate and he is doing excellent in doing his business outside.  He loves to be near you, cuddle with you, and lives up to the reputation of the long-haired dachshund... he is simply wonderful!  

Will you be that person that gives him the loving home he deserves?  His foster dad hopes someone out there will give Pedro that chance.  You WILL NOT be disappointed!

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.
