BIO:  Harley and Sparkle came from Arkansas when the family could no longer care for them due to the declining health of the family.

You could not ask for a more friendly pair of dachshunds! They don’t know a stranger... they might bark at a stranger but with their tails wagging. They will follow you around or sit with you when you are chillin' on the couch. They would also love the Big Bed if you'll let them.

They get along with all dogs, though Harley can be a little pushy with other males, but he’s getting better the longer he’s been neutered.

These are our must-haves for this dynamic duo:

• This is their last home
• A fenced yard
• You are home a lot, but they are also fine if you must be out of the house... they will just snooze in a big bed together
• No apartments, high-rises, or condos, as they do like to bark at strange noises (they are dachshunds after all!)
• Continue to work on reducing their weight to a healthy number

Please consider giving these two sweeties their last forever home. You’ll not regret doing that for them!

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