BIO:  Sassy a sweet girl who is young and learning to trust.

Sassy has been in my foster home for a short period, and I have discovered that she is just now really learning how to be a puppy. Sassy was surrendered in Tennessee with another dachshund because their owner could no longer properly care for them. Sassy is a little shy at first around people or in new surroundings, but we are working on this, and she is doing very well. We have started working on walking with her leash, and she is taking walks twice a day. Sassy really loves being outside. When she needs to go outside, she has learned to use the doggie door along with the other dachshunds in the house.

Check back for updates about Sassy enjoying being a puppy!  

Beautiful Sassy’s must-haves include:

• A fenced yard
• Another small, young dog to be her buddy
• No apartments, condos, or high-rises
• Someone to help continue her socialization

Please consider Sassy for your next, best doggie friend... you won’t be sorry!
 

============== 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 dachshund’s back or get bitten.

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

There will be an additional $60 fee added for a required Health Certificate if traveling out of the state in which they are being fostered.

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 any 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 who will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or Midwest.  We just can't get them from one coast to the other.  Please look for dogs on your coast.

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.
