BIO:

Josie may be little but she’s mighty. She loves lap time and will be in your lap forever if you have the time too.

She is also an alpha female and will need to go to a home that has a male or a submissive female, like we said little but mighty. She is a friendly little girl to strangers and walks great on a leash.  She is a true mini!

She did lose a lot of teeth when she had her dental so it’s best if she’s given softened food or mini bites. She would do best with another dog around to keep her company. Please consider giving this little girl a forever home.

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.
