ADOPTION FEE...................150.00+10.00chip fee Hello everyone! As you can see, I am a wonderful combination of Dachshund and Chihuahua. The SSDR rescued me from an abusive situation, and I could not be a happier dog. My favorite two things are to have you hold me, or to lay in your lap, so that I can soak up your loving. I'm small enough to fit snuggly in just one arm, and if I lay in your lap I usually curl up into a tiny little ball and sleep. I get along just fine with children, visitors, and other small dogs. We have a good time playing. I am friends with everyone. One of my neatest tricks is that I can jump into your arms without you even picking me up. If you tell me to, and open your arms, I can leap right up there. Take me home with you, and I will show you what a loving and affectionate guy I am. Contact Renee lilbit90@bellsouth.net Out of state and Canadian adoptions are welcome. We have several transporters that for a fee will bring the dog as close to you as possible up the Eastern seaboard. A home visit is required on all adoptions. We also micro chip all our dogs and must pass the cost on to the adopter. It is only $10.00. Thank you for your interest in a rescue.To fill out an application for this dog please go to www.ssdr.org and fill out an app. we will be in touch shortly to do a phone interview. It is also best to have a dog in mind that you would like to adopt or if you don't please let us know that you'd like a dog that best fits your lifestyle. Keep in mind that we are all volunteers and have other obligations so please let your references and vet know that we will be calling to vai all info that you put on your application. If you use two vets then please let us know that so we get all info on your dog possible to determine if you are a suitable home for our dog. If you do not let us know these things this maybe the factor that you will be turned down to adopt one of our dogs.

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.
