Bio: Mercy came in with her mom and dad, had to be given up because they were getting out of the fence and killing the chickens on the farm in MO. 

Mercy is a sweet sweet girl and will sit on your lap as long as you sit. She's looking forward to Super Bowl Sunday to share some TV time with you. 

She walks well on a leash but might be better with a fenced in yard but you couldn't ask for a better tempered dachshund. She's a little princess. She rides great in a car and would be fine with another dog to keep her company while you are at work. 

She is a great dog and deserves a great home. Her mom and daddy have homes now it's Mercy's time.

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.
