BIO: Sasha came in from NC as a retired breeder dog. When she first came in she was very scared but as she’s been here for several days she has gotten better but it will take someone that is patient and give her time to feel comfortable in her new home.

She will need help with housetraining again patience is the key.

She does great getting along with other males and females. As for cats we just are not sure how she would be.

The key to a successful adoption of Sasha is PATIENCE and allowing her to have the time she needs to feel comfortable and know that she is now a pet.

Our must haves for Sasha are:

• a fenced in yard
• another young small socialized dog for her to pal around with
• someone home more than not
• no apartments, high rises or condos as Dachshund like to bark

============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============

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.

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed on the bio form.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal. 

There will be an additional $60 fee added for a required Health Certificate if traveling out of the state in which they are being fostered. 

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states.  If you have any issue with this, you will need to take this up with your legislatures.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.
