ELROY aka Leroy was found as a stray in Montgomery, AL and because he was heartworm positive if we had not stepped up to take him he would have been euthanized. Boy are we glad we did, what a sweet boy this one is. He’s young, happy and loves everybody. No issues here, what a find, we only need to get him heartworm treated and he’s ready for his new home in July. He gets along with all the dogs here and would probably do well with children 8+. We want him to have another younger dog to keep him company and to play with him. We also want him to have a fenced in yard to run and play in cause he really likes being outside with the other dogs and his human. He will sleep in a doggie bed with another friend or sleep in bed with you whatever you prefer. He’s not a picky eater and is crate-trained and to top all that off he is gorgeous, what more can YOU ask for?? Get your app in now and be the first cause he’s too handsome to stay available long.
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 for the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Good with Dogs, Good with Kids
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.
