BIO UPDATE (3/5/2025):  Hey guys, Bandit here!  How do you like my new spring “do”?  Foster mom recently took me for a full grooming due to a lot of matting of my fur.  Check out my latest photos.  I feel like a new man, and I really think the ladies are lovin' it.  I hope you do too.      

BIO:  Bandit is a retired breeder dog from North Carolina looking for his forever home, one that is patient and will give him time to settle into being a pet. After only one week, Bandit has become part of the pack. He loves playing with toys and his brother (check out his video). It took him only a week to adjust and he is getting even more comfy each day. He cuddles and loves to get kisses. Bandit did sleep in the crate the first few nights here but started crying around 5:30 am. He currently sleeps in the bed with us and does great. He sleeps in late and barely moves around except to give more cuddles and kisses. Leash training is still a task, and some days are better than others.

Bandit continues to do well in foster care. He loves to play and chase his foster brother, so a playmate is a must! He does love to bark, like many dachshunds do. He still gets nervous if you reach down when standing up, but he is doing so much better every day. Take a chance with this cutie, and you won't be sorry!

Our must-haves for adorable Bandit include:

• A fenced yard
• Another young, small dog that is well socialized so he can learn from them
• Someone with patience or breeder dog experience who understands it is going to take time
• A single-family home only
• Someone who could be home more than not

If you meet all these requirements and want to adopt, please go to our website and apply online. Bandit is a handsome guy, so don’t wait!
 

 ============== 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.
