CRICKET2 came from the same breeder as Freckles but is a little more shy then Freckles. With patience and treats and love she will come around. She is fine with other dogs but no cats. Older kids 12 and up would be fine but again she'd have to have time to warm up. Other than that she is very sweet. She is UTD on all shots, heartworm negative and on Interceptor and Frontline. Please consider giving CRICKET2 a wonderful lasting home that she deserves. She will need further work with housetraining but is housetrained if you have a doggie door but with patience and a fenced in yard and rewards for doing good she'll be eager to please. Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

Good with Dogs, Is Not Good with Kids
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.
