BIO: Winston is as sweet as he is handsome! He gets along well with his foster dog sisters, plays with toys, and just wants to be around his person. Winston is a retired breeder dog and only recently neutered, so housetraining and leash training are in progress. His tolerance for cats and children is unknown. Winston is vocal, especially at night when left alone in his room, so a single-family home with a fenced backyard would be best for him. Winston is up to date on his vaccinations and dental and is heartworm negative. After a lifetime as a breeder dog living in a crate, this gorgeous precious boy deserves a loving home where he will be cherished and spoiled.
Our must-haves for this handsome little man include:
- Someone who doesn’t work and is home a lot or works from home
- Someone with strong "pack leader" skills, time, and patience to help Winston learn the things he needs to learn to have the best life possible as a member of his forever family
- A fenced yard
- Another small female dog for him to buddy with; he does not do well with male dogs
- No apartments, condos, or high-rises
============= 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.
