BIO (6/18/2018):  Peanut came into rescue because her owner died.  She was well cared for by her previous owner and treated with great love and kindness.  Peanut is looking for a home where her human(s) is home most of the time to spend lots of time with her, possibly a retired person or couple.  She loves to hang out with people and with other household pets.  Little Peanut has been doing very well in her foster home with 4 male/1 female dogs, although it would be better if she was an only dog or in a home with just a male dachshund. 

If you're looking for a sweet, loving, mature lady, please complete an adoption application for Peanut!

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.
