BIO:  

Chewy is a dachshund wannabe! He came from a neglectful situation and we were asked if we could find him a good home so here he is. What a sweet boy! If his foster mom was not such a dachshund snob she’d adopt him herself but instead she’s looking for a special home for him. One where he’ll be groomed when needed and cared for the way he should be. He LOVES LOVES to play with toys mostly by himself and he’d be fine as an only dog or with another. He loves to sleep either on the big bed or on the sofa at night. He’s not destructive but we think if you do go away that it would be best to crate him as he is still a pup yet in many ways.

We want a fence in yard for Chewy(and he loves it) and someone that is going to spend time with him and show him love. He will repay you 10 fold. He is doing really well on housebreaking, when he first came he did “mark” a lot but since being neutered that has disappeared.

Please help us find the right home for Chewy.

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.
