Happy Tales
Every one of these Dachshunds has been rescued by an angel...
Harley's Brave Journey Harley's Story is a great inspiration to AADR because it shows that no matter how desperate the situation, saving one life makes the ultimate difference. DeeAnn, Harley's foster mom, has included her personal account with Harley's amazing story and where he is now.Harley was found homeless and sick. He only had a 50% chance of survival. Now he is living a life of true happiness and contentment. Read More...

Janie #2...PA
Hi Angie...thank you for checking in on Janie...she is getting more comfortable with her new life. After a week or so I renamed her "Coco"...she likes her name...Princess Coco Chanel :) She loves playing with Ginger...they're bff's...too cute. She sleeps in the big bed...uses the ramp to get up and down...races into bed with the other three. She has a really good appetite. I've transitioned her to the raw diet I had started my other 3 on and she loves it. When I come home she gets so excited and runs to me shaking her tail and prancing about, along with the rest of the crew...then she'll turn and run away....it's a really healthy beginning though! She lets me pick her up...she rolls on her back on the bed for me to rub her belly...she lets me give her kisses. She's wary of my fiance Fred...even though he is absolutely great with her....brings her food to her wherever she's comfortable....sometimes the girls stay upstairs and watch animal planet on the bed while the boys stay downstairs looking out the window...barking at anything that even looks like it might move...haha. She does sit on the couch by him sometimes...and lay her head on his lap...so she's slooooowly warming up.....we both know it'll take her a long time to really let her guard down after the life she came from...but I truely think she is as happy as she could possibly be at this stage...we'll just keep loving her forever and ever. Thank you all for what you do. I'm grateful to have Janie/Coco in my little family.....she is loved very much. Merry Christmas!!! Sandy
Sneakers..TN
Sneakers new family sent us this picture. It seems that Sneakers has wormed his way into a few hearts (and smiles)!
Wrangler...AL
We just got this update on Wrangler! Looks like he is riding pretty with his forever brother Fritz!
Marcee...TN
I just wanted to let you know that Marcee is doing wonderful. She has gained weight and looks great. Her hair is slowly growing back, but I think she'll always have some bald spots. She has bonded very well with my other male dachshund and they're slowly started to play together. She loves riding around in our golf cart in her pink ruffled dress as long as she has a blanket nearby in case she gets cold. We'll be leaving for Florida the day after Christmas for three months and I've already purchased her several sun dresses so she'll be gorgeous down there. Both of my dachshunds will be so happy to get in warm weather again. They both stay on their heated blanket buried under covers all day now that the temperatures have dropped. I know you deal with this every day too.
Hope you have a wonderful holiday season and I will send some pictures of Marcee once her hair grows some more so you can see what a doll she is outside (you already know how precious she is inside). She is such a huge blessing to my husband and I. She makes us laugh every day and of course she is spoiled rotten by both of us.
Best wishes,
Linda
Heather...PA
This is Tara, The owner of Rescued Heather. I just wanted to give you an update about Heather and a new picture. She is doing well. She loves her new home as well as her new family. She meet the whole family during Thanksgiving and they absolutely love her! She still suffers from anxiety here and there, but is starting to feel like she is staying with me with permanently. Heather looks and acts very happy! Most of all, she acts like a loved dog! Thanks again for rescuing Heather!
Your dachshund loving friend,
Tara
