NAME..............................AJ DACHSHUND...............TWEENIE/PURE COAT...............................SMOOTH COLOR............................RED AGE..................................4 YRS WEIGHT...........................25-30 BLS AND LOSING ADOPTION FEE.............225.00 10.00 CHIP FEE CONTACT nashcat2@bellsouth.net AJ was pulled from a shelter with her brother and father. She was terrified and it took her a couple of days here to get over being scared. We figured she had known only one home and was dumped at the shelter by a family member when her human mom became very ill. She is house broken, gets along with other dogs and would be fine with older kids(10 ). She is working very hard to lose weight but looks oh so cute when she begs for treats which she has done more than too many times. She is UTD on all shots, spayed and on Interceptor and frontline she will also have a dental done. She loves belly rubs and going for walks and car rides. Won't you adopt AJ and help her get into a size 10 again?? If you are interested in adoption AJ please go to www.ssdr.org and fill out an online application and put her name on it. We do welcome out of state and country adoptions and a home visit is required.

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.
