BIO: 

Hi my name is Vienna, just like the sausage. I have a brother and a sister and I'm bigger than them. I love to eat and guess I get to Mom faster then they do.  I'm learning something new everyday as I'm a growing baby. I eat sleep and play with my Mom, April and brother and sister Hoagie and Minnie. I hear I'm pretty lucky too. I don't know what that means but they tell me Mom was “rescued” from a puppy mill and we are different from the other puppies that Momma had before outside in the dirt.  We live in a nice safe warm house with some other dogs they call their pets. Its pretty confusing to me. All I know is that it is fun to eat, sleep and play all day.

Vienna is both too small and too young to be neutered, so whomever adopts her must sign a neuter agreement and pay a $75 deposit in addition to her adoption fee. That deposit will be returned when she  is spayed. Based on your vet's recommendations, she may have to wait until she's 4-6 months old or a certain weight. If you have any questions or want more pictures, email her foster mom.  Get your applications in ASAP—Vienna will not last long!

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.
