BIO:  We were contacted by another rescue to take Blondie. She had come in as a breeder release and they wanted her to go to a breed specific rescue. BOY are we glad we took her - she is a dream come true!! You could not ask for a better dachshund if you are looking for a more mature female. So many times people want the younger dogs but are passing up the true treasures in the middle-aged dachshunds. We had Blondie at the Nashville Pet Expo and she did great, loved loved all the attention, went to anyone willing to hold her and walked great on a leash, that is when people were not carrying her around, which she loved. Truthfully, if you are looking for a wonderful adult dachshund then Blondie is the one so look no further! And, if you want a pair, adopting Blondie with Tara, our other middle aged lady, would be a JACKPOT!! Apply today - Blondie won’t be with us long…..

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. If they choose transporting by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, there will be an additional $35 Fee for the required Health Certificate. 

We will not adopt into the state of CT, RI or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have an issue with this you need to take this up with your legislatures.

We are now approved to adopt/foster in the state of NH but adopters will have to pay health certificate fee of 35.00 once to get the dog to our quarantine facility and another 35.00 fee to get the dog out of quarantine after two days.

To understand the adoption process through AADR please visit the Adoption Information.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and then you can complete an Application.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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 or up and down the West Coast. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well for now please look for dogs on your coast.

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.
