Hello! My name is Brooklyn, and my foster Mom says I am just as handsome as they come! My favorite things are belly rubs and getting brushed. I also like toys, walks, running in the fenced in yard and playing with cats! I’m pretty bashful but if you give me time I’ll warm up to you. I’m looking for a quiet forever home without small humans (they scare me!). Do you have room in your heart and home for me?
Brooklyn was surrendered in AR by a breeder. He is very shy but he is slowly learning that life can be great! He walks beautifully on a leash, is crate trained and does pretty well with his housetraining if kept on a schedule. You would have to look hard to find a dachshund as sweet as this boy, and he is such a gentle soul! As his personality emerges, he is also showing signs of being quite a clown. Brooklyn will make the right adopter a wonderful companion.
***BROOKLYN has Progressive Retinal Degeneration (PRD). He has lost sight in one eye and with time will lose sight in the other eye too. His vet recommends that his adopter takes him to an ophthalmologist for a clearer prognosis because Brooklyn was too shy to look the vet in the eye for long during his exam. 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, 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.
