BIO:

Meet Holly! She was born on Christmas Day and is a little spitfire. Holly can be shy with new people, but warms up quickly and loves to snuggle. She has a beautiful short red coat and sweet disposition. She loves run and play outside, but her favorite thing to do is curl up in a lap and take a long nap.

Holly had back surgery in July of 2010 but has healed up wonderfully.  She still has a small limp at times but gets better each day.  The vet said the surgery was a complete success. She is an indoor dog and will need a fenced yard, and, to prevent another injury to her back, does not need to be around small children. Holly loves to sleep in the bed with you and share a pillow. She's housebroken and does well in a crate when left alone.

Holly's previous family regrets having to give her up; however, they are concerned for her safety around their small toddler.

If you would like to know more about Holly, email her foster mom at ljacoby23@yahoo.com If you would like to apply to adopt this beautiful, sweet little girl, please fill out an application 

Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport.  
 
If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then there will be an additional $35 fee for the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  Please Read Before You Adopt to learn more about transportation options.  If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and Fill Out an Application.            

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.
