BIO: 

Lexie love everyone and everything.  She is a coach potato extraordinaire.  She like nothing better than to sit in your lap and kiss you.  Her favorite TV show is the Dog Whisperer but she will watch anything as long as she has someone to sit with.  She enjoys a walk now and then – but loves to be carried.  She is an incredible baby.  She is living now with 2 other doxies and she loves them as well. 

Lexie seems to have no bad habits.  I have never heard her growl and you can take food right out of her mouth.  She is a lover, not a fighter. 

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.
