BIO:

Aunt Bea is a sweetheart.  She is so loving.  When I first picked her up she immediately began to give me kisses.  She made herself at home right away.  She enjoys cuddling all the time and she will gladly take her place on any lap that is available.  She is a happy dog, always wagging her tail and she looks forward to our walks every day.  She has done well with our dogs and she can definitely hold her own with them. 

She does need some potty training.  She will go outside, if reminded.  But, she will not wait for you if she needs to go.  We are working on this and she is doing better.  She just needs someone with the patience to work with her.

Aunt Bea’s one wish is for a wonderful forever home filled with caring and love.  Are you the one who will provide her with that?

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.
