BIO: 

Little Man is as sweet as he is cute.  In fact, he probably thinks his name is ‘You’re So Cute’ because that’s what I tell him every time I look at him! Little Man’s favorite things are laps, giving kisses and car rides.  He is a champion snuggler and wants someone who is home a lot so that he may keep their lap warm.  His fur is velvety soft and he loves to be gently stroked.  He is not a big barker but will alert if someone comes to the door.  He does not care for long walks and will sit down and mouth the leash until picked up.  He can’t really chew the leash, he has no teeth due to neglect in his early years.  He will need softened food but the upside is that he will never need another dental!  Little Man is so small it’s like having a forever puppy that is out of the chew hound stage.  This little guy is a keeper, he won’t last long before getting a forever home! 

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.
