BIO: Hi! I don’t have a name yet but I will soon! In the meantime I’m spending time playing with my brothers and sisters. Mom is a pure breed standard but dad, well, mom won’t tell us and he didn’t stick around. Mom has a bobbed tail and some of us do and some of us don’t... I do but it’s not always good when you have brothers and sisters that want to bite on it with their sharp teeth when we are all playing. We all love to sleep in a puppy pile and play with the toys they give us, we like to play fight over them.

We came from central Alabama, turned in by an owner along with our mom. The shelter felt it was best to get us out of there so they reached out to this rescue for help.

Since mom is a standard they are guessing we’ll be between 15-25 pounds. If you are interested in knowing more about me, please email our foster mom. 

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.
