BIO:

Rudy was picked up as a stray and taken to a shelter in Elizabethton, TN.  He is a very sweet little man, but takes a little time to warm up.  He only lost 3 teeth in his dental, has been neutered, and is in good health.  Rudy would not do well in a home with cats.  A home with lots of love and patience is a must for this boy!  I think his future looks a lot brighter than his past.  

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.
