BIO UPDATE (12/19/2023):  I am now in my foster home and boy, am I lovin’ it!  I am a quick learner, so I am totally settled in.  I like the fact that they let me sit in their lap and rub my back and belly.  I just love being loved.  I am still a little shy because of my memories of not being treated very well.  I love to eat…but what dog doesn't.  I am being taught that I cannot beg all the time when they are eating.  If they get up, then I get up.  I like to follow them to see what they are doing, and you never know, they may give me something to eat.  I have 3 foster siblings and they let me sleep in the bed with them that way we all stay warm and cozy.  I am very good at going outside to do my business and I sleep all night, so they really like that.  I really do want to go to my furever home so that I can call someone my very own.  If you want a dog that will let you love on them and follow you everywhere then you could be the one for me.  Have you seen my pictures?  I am adorable!  We could make each other very happy so make sure you complete your application now so we can be together. 

BIO:  Anita came from a situation where she was living in trash and burrowing tunnels through it to get to any food she could find. She’s a little on the shy side, and it takes her a bit to warm up but when she does, she’s so very sweet. Can you make her next years so much better than the last five she’s suffered? While we know she gets along with other dogs we think she’d also be fine as an only dog so she can bask in all the attention.

Our must-haves for sweet Anita include:

• A fenced yard
• Someone who is home quite a bit
• She can be an only dog or with another big or small dog
• No apartments, high-rises, condos, or duplexes (no shared walls)

Please help Anita have a happy ever after; she deserves it so much!

============== 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.
