BIO:  Winni came from a family in Pennsylvania that could not care for her any longer due to health issues of one of the family members.

Winni is just a sweet, sweet little girl who will need some work. She was played with and the game was keep away. They would chase her and now she thinks that’s a great game. So instead of coming to you when you want to pick her up, she runs away. Her adopter will have to let her know that it’s not a game and have her come to you while you are sitting down so she can be picked up and not run away. Thankfully, she is well socialized.

She also needs a small, young dog (3 years and under) to play with because she plays and plays and plays. Having another dog will also help her with her housebreaking skills. She does sleep all night in a gated room with another dog with no accidents.

Our must haves (no exceptions!) for Winni include: 

• No apartments or high-rises
• A fenced yard
• Someone who is home a lot to finish her housebreaking skills
• Another small, young, very playful dog for her to play with her in the home
• An adopter with patience so she can be the type of pet she should be
• NO stairs and/or jumping for her

If you meet ALL these requirements, then please apply. This little girl is likely going to stay small, probably 10-11 pounds, and is just as cute as a button. She does come with some luggage from her previous family and that will be going with her when she is finally adopted into the right home.

============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============

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 dachshunds back or get bitten.

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal. 

We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport.  If you choose transporting by either volunteers through our organization or by paid transporter, there will be an additional $55 fee added for the required Health Certificate. 

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states.  If you have an issue with this, you will need to take this up with your legislatures.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

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 MidWest. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other. Please look for dogs on your coast.
