BIO: Randy is a full of spunk little man, or that is what his foster mom calls him! Randy was hit by a car on December the 19th, 2015. He was ready to be released to go home to his family on Christmas Eve but they refused to pay the bill! After a month staying in a kennel at the vets office, legal action was taken and he became the property of the veterinarian, who then turned him over to us. That was the best day Randy had in over a month. His foster mom says he is really sweet and is full of energy. He loves to play with his foster brothers and sister. When not playing, he loves to snuggle and like most Dachshunds, he likes to burrow under the covers to sleep. Randy does well going outside to potty, but will have an occasional accident. He may be a little shy at first but he warms up pretty quick to a new environment. Randy just wants to be loved and deserves a family who will love him the way he deserves to be. Are you that person?

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.
