Talk about sweet doesn't describe this guy. He loves to cuddle, give kisses, ride in cars and walk on a leash. We sure can't figure out why he was given up he's as perfect as a Dachshund can get and he's housebroken to boot. We know he'd be fine with kids, cats and other dogs. He's getting a dental and utd on all shots and he's ready to go to his new home. Please consider R D for your next family member. If you are interested in him please go to www.ssdr.org and fill out an online app and be fure to put his name on the app. We will also add more pictures as time goes and he's in foster longer but we wanted to get him on the website so he could find a new home ASAP for that next lucky family that won't dump him with a "friend". Out of state and Canadian adoptions are welcome and a home visit is required. 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 interested in a rescue.

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.
