BIO:  I love you already and you only just met me through my pictures!  I came from a loving family who could no longer take care of me due to unavoidable family issues.  I am too special to be adopted by just anyone.  I am super affectionate.  I love everyone.  I have never met a stranger.  When I go on walks and see someone across the street, I stop because I know they will come over and pet me.  I am great with respectful children, other dogs and cats too.  I love to ride in the car ( crate of course) and see different places.  Every day is an adventure!

I am so smart.  I know ‘watch’, ‘stay’, ‘come’, and ‘wait’, but sit is still hard for me.  This is not my favorite command.

I am a Velcro lap dog.  Just to be near you is all I need.  I snuggle and love everyone’s lap.  I walk on the leash very easily.  I grunt when I am happy like a little piglet.  Speaking of piglets, I am a little overweight. 

============== 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 $45 fee added for the required Health Certificate. 

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, 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.

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

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please review 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. 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.

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.
