BIO:
  
Aria is a sweet girl who was left with friends when her family moved and once they settled in they decided they didn't want her anymore.  The friends couldn't keep her and turned her over to rescue.  Aria was in dire need of dental care and ended up losing all of her teeth.  She has no trouble eating dry dog food that has been soaked in water.  She is in excellent health and you won't have to worry about dental cleanings!    

Aria is housebroken and hangs out in the kitchen and living room while foster mom is at work.  At night Aria slept in a crate, then a dog bed, and now usually sleeps with foster mom.  She snuggles under a blanket and sleeps quietly until morning.  She has a silky soft coat and loves to be petted.  

Ari walks well on a leash and enjoys strolls around the neighborhood.  She has a keen eye for bunnies and squirrels, so hold on tight!  She gets along well with other dogs.  She has not been around cats, but can be introduced to some to see how she does.  Aria is very friendly and likes meeting new people.  She enjoys children who are old enough to understand that they must be gentle with her.  

If you are looking for a pretty and loving little companion, Aria is the girl for you!

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.
