BIO:
Colby was picked up as a stray wondering the streets of New Hampshire. It is pretty difficult to believe that no one was missing this sweet little boy, but he was never claimed. He has a gorgeous long haired coat and dark brown eyes. He is a happy little guy that will jump around and dance when you sing his name. He gets along with all the other fosters big and small. No accidents in the house. Sleeps through the night. He really is a charmer.
If you would like to know more about Colby, please email his foster mom. And if this sweet little man has caught your eye and you would love to be his forever home, please complete an online application and get his adoption in process!

Good with Dogs, 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.
