He has always had a buddy to play with and gets along with other dogs, although not all. He is housebroke and only has an accident occasionally. He is crate trained and that is where he stays when his owner is out. Toby likes to ride in cars and loves attention. At home he prefers to sit in your lap or as close as he can get. He is cold natured and loves to wrap up in a blanket or sheet when it is cold. He is an indoor dog, but likes to lie in the sun on the patio. Toby does like to chase cats, so a home with an indoor kitty is not advisable. Toby has only known one home and one owner in his lifetime, and his heartbroken owner says that Toby will need a little time to get used to someone new, but once he gets used to you, he will be a friend for life. Toby has a quiet demeanor indoors but lights up when he is taken for his daily walks. THIS DOG WILL NOT BE CHIPPED........ Out of state and Canadian adoptions are welcome and a home visit is required.

Not Good with Cats, Is Not Good with Kids

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.
