BIO: 

Needs an experienced dachshund owner!

Zeke is a very happy boy.  He warms up quickly and he will be by your side all the time.  He has to be where the action is and he is not happy caged or where he cannot see you.  He demands your attention.  He loves to be loved and he will immediately curl up on your lap if you sit down.  He is very alert and energetic.  He enjoys eating and he loves treats. He will give you lots of kisses every day.   He also loves to play and he will happily play with other dogs.  Zeke loves being outdoors and he is willing to take a walk anytime.  He is impatient when left alone; however, he is not destructive.  If you leave the room and he cannot go with you, he will whine and run back and forth awaiting your return and then greet you as if you have been gone for a long time.  If you are looking for a companion who is highly energetic and is most happy by your side, Zeke is the ideal dog. 

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.
