VACAY UPDATE (3/31/25): Hey, guys! It’s your boy Ace! I just returned from a fantastic vacation. So much fun! Did some cart cruisin’, duck chasin’, and just chillin’ in the cabana. I enjoyed walking on the beach while flyin’ my “Adopt Me” flag to let everyone (especially the chicks) know I am available. I love the sun and spent a lot of time working on my tan. What a great time! Check out all my photos. But all was not fun and frivolity, I was responsible for driving the RV, of course. Foster Mom had to keep me tethered to my seat while I was not driving. I was so excited to be on the road; I wanted to be all over the place.
If you are up for adventure, I am your man. I’ve still got things to learn so I can be your co-pilot or navigator, but I would love to give it my best shot just so I can be with you. As much as I like experiencing new places, what I want most is that one place to call home, my very own forever home. Could we do that? Love, Ace
UPDATE: Hi, Ace here! I wanted to give you a little update on how I am doing. I am getting to play every day with my Foster Sister and having so much fun! Every now and then she lets me know that she doesn't want to play, and I back off. When we take a break from playing, I get to snuggle with my Foster Siblings under a blanket and I just love it. I don't stay long because something always distracts me, and I just have to check it out. As my Foster Mom says, I am nosy, or you could say a lot curious. I like it here but would really like to find my furever home. I want someone who will love me forever because I will love them forever! I really like to play, so I need a brother or sister who will play with me. And look at me... why wouldn't you want someone this handsome?! If you think we could spend the rest of our lives together, please complete an application. I am waiting for you!
BIO: Ace was returned by his original home to the breeder because he snapped at a small child. The breeder then asked AADR to help find Ace his perfect forever home. He loves to play, so he would need a home with another dog his size who also loves to play. He will sit in your lap until something else gets his attention. He loves being under a blanket with his foster siblings, so I’m sure he would like to snuggle with a new brother or sister.
Mr. Ace is a very nosy boy, so he is constantly checking things out. He does not like loud noises such as a vacuum cleaner, hair dryer, paper shredder, etc. He will bark at them until he has barked them into submission, and they go silent. He is working on house training and now goes out the doggie door by himself but still has accidents. If you are an active adult with children over 10 and looking for an active and lovable dog, Ace may be the guy for you.
Our must-haves for adorable Ace include:
- A fenced yard
- Another small to medium young dog for him to play with
- Someone who is home more often than not
- No condos, high-rises, or apartments due to possible barking
If you want to know more about Ace, complete our online adoption application, and we’ll be happy to talk to you about this sweet boy.
============== 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.
