WHERE LOCATED…… INDIANAPOLIS, IN

 

Rufus came into rescue through no fault of his own.  His family couldn’t keep him anymore so wanted him to have a good family.  He is doing really good on his potty training and really I think he is mostly there!  We are learning some basic commands also.

 

Rufus also is learning to play.  He came here not really knowing what to do with the toys but with the other fur babies and the human sister and brothers help we are finally starting to come out of our shell.  He loves to snuggle up with the humans and will sleep there for hours if you let him.  Rufus also gets along with the cats and big and little dogs here at the foster home.

Out of State and Canadian adopters are welcome. We do not ship our dogs cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

More about Rufus

Good with Dogs, Good with Cats

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.
