BIO:   

Lucky is an owner surrender to a veterinary office once it was determined that he was suffering from abuse and neglect. Lucky was scarred and malnourished from living in a garage with pit bulls and other animals (they had to fight to get food when and if they were fed).  The ASPCA officer involved thinks Lucky was used as a "teaser" dog (not a bait dog) that was used to get the Pitties to fight, which could explain the scarring and that he is still alive.  He's a sweet boy who will need someone that is an experienced dog person to take the leadership role with him to help him stable out. His temperament is such that if you don’t establish this position for yourself, he will feel obliged to try to take that position. He does have food aggression that we are working on (Most likely from being starved and having to fight for food) so if there are other dogs in the home he will need to be feed separate. Most importantly, he needs a home that will help him heal inside and out and show him what it is like to be a happy dog. Please feel free to contact Lucky’s foster Mom for more info.

Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport.

If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then there will be an additional $35

Fee r the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  Please Read Before You Adopt to learn more about transportation options.  If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and Fill Out an Application.

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.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers that will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast and mid-west. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. For now, please look for dogs on your coast.
