BIO: 

Penelope is a courtesy listing and not associated with All American Dachshund Rescue.  Please contact Cindy Schneider at the e-mail listed above for further details on Penelope and how to adopt her.

Penelope is a sweet girl that deserves a loving home.  She was rescued from a hoarder situation.  There are several dogs in her foster home – large and small, male and female- and she enjoys playing with them all.  She gets in her “bed” on command and is quiet in her crate. She has been using a doggie door to potty. Penelope enjoys lying in the back of the couch when she is not playing.  There are several older kids in her foster home and she does great with everyone.  She truly has been one of the sweetest dispositions I’ve ever seen.  Please give her the home and love she deserves.

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.
