DOTTIE came from a shelter in Hattiesburg, MS and is sadly heartworm positive and won't be able to go to her new home until the 1st of Nov. Please do not let that stop you from adopting her. She is the sweetest little thing and I do mean little. She is about 7-8lbs soaking wet but her personality is out of this world. She is very smart and learned the doggie door right away and also likes to set with foster dad and watch TV so she's a bit of a couch potato. One this that everyone should know about her is that she has a severe underbite but that should not effect her at all. This one is a keeper...who's going to be the one to win this little girls love??
Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Good with Dogs, Is Not Good with Kids
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.
