BIO:

Charlie came from a shelter in KY where he was turned in by his owners. He had mange but has completely gotten all his hair back and you’d never know he had mange. He does have seizures and now that we have him on inexpensive Phenobarbital tabs daily he’s fine. He is housebroken and will ask to go outside. He does like to go outside on nice days and just wander the fenced in yard or lay in the sun and at his age who wants to deprive him of that.

He loves to sit in his foster dad’s lap and nap while foster dad watches TV and will be ready when it’s time for bed too. Charlie is a sweet older boy that just needs a final place to call his own and someone to love him. Please give him a home to call his own. He’d be fine for a working or retired couple or single person; he’s not fussy at all.   Please love him.

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.
