BIO:

Crusoe came in with 10 other dogs from a shelter in Northern AL when the owner could no longer care for them.

Crusoe is a little timid but he wants all the attention and love you can give him. He is working very hard on housebreaking and he’ll need you to be patient with him while he learns, and it would help if you had another dog he could buddy up with and learn from. He promises to be a good student.

A fenced-in yard would be best for Crusoe, and kids older than 10 because younger ones running and screaming would cause him to be too nervous.

If you’d like more info on Crusoe or if you live locally, please fill out an application and you can come see him at our halfway house. This boy is a diamond in the rough and if you have the time and patience he’ll be well worth it when his training is completed. 

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.
