BIO (10/26/2018):  Angus is one happy and energetic dog!  He came from a home where there were 51 other dogs and we think he’s happy to be out of there where he can get more love and attention.  Angus may take a day to get used to you but once he does, he will follow you anywhere and want nothing more than to be with you.  He’s doing well on housebreaking but isn’t 100% just yet.  He enjoys running around the yard and chewing on Nylabones. 

Angus gets along with his two foster brothers but doesn’t really pay much attention to them.  He loves his Foster Mom and wants to be with her all the time.  Angus would do best with a family that is looking for a small dog they can give lots of love and attention to.

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.
