BIO: 

This little love bug is Jenny, a 10 year old female who loves everyone she meets.  She is the happiest dog, and will even hop around to show you how happy she is.  She loves being around her foster mom and three other doxie brothers and sisters in her foster home.  Notice anything different about her?  No tail, but that little stump is constantly wiggling.  Jenny also has no teeth on the top, but some food softened with warm water suits her just fine.  She also loves going for walks and rides in the car.  Jenny would make the perfect addition to any home looking for an older and affectionate dog to add to the family. 

We will not adopt into the state of  CT or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have an issue with this you need to take this up with your legislatures. We are working hard to get approved to bring dogs into the state of NH and until that happens we can not adopt to anyone in that state either.

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.
