BIO UPDATE (8/11/22):

Hello All,

Just wanted to give you an update on sweet Jazz.

She has been with her new foster family for almost a month and has adapted well. She loves her foster brothers Murph and Buddy. Although Jazz is deaf, she follows hand signs (come on, stop) and she follows the other dogs. She is super sweet and loves the outdoors.

Jazz has become very spoiled and insists on sleeping in her baby chair. She is a very accomplished “snorer” and is an absolute joy to have. It takes her a while to adjust to changes, new people and pets but, she is so worth the effort. She is a special needs dog but, I take care of her just like the boys.

Thank you, 

Tracy Morris (Jazz’s mom)

BIO:  Jazz came from North Carolina where she was dumped in a wooded area but luckily for her the property owner who was close by had a Great Dane who found Jazz and wrangled her up to the property owner's house. She kept Jazz until she got in touch with us for help. 

Jazz is deaf and she does not have full sight but gets around just fine! Sadly, we fully believe she was hit about the head, maybe to get her attention. But it's abuse none the less. For that reason, she is hand-shy around her face. 

Don’t let her "disabilities" stop you from adopting her because she is as sweet as she can be and LOVES attention. She gets along with adult to senior small dogs but just not young hyper ones.

She is housebroken to a schedule and can be crated when not home, but we’d prefer someone who is home a lot.

There is so much beneficial information available on training, communication, and bonding with deaf dogs that aid in a happy and healthy life. It breaks our hearts to think someone had to hit her just because she was deaf, doesn’t it bother you?

Our must-haves for sweet Jazz include:

• A fenced yard
• Another adult small dog for her to pal around with
• No apartments, high-rises, or condos
• Someone who is home more often than not
• AADR prefers someone or a family who has experience with deaf dogs: Hand signals, body language, etc. Continued training for both you and Jazz will be necessary.

============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============

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.

If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed on the bio form.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal. 

There will be an additional $60 fee added for a required Health Certificate if traveling out of the state in which they are being fostered. 

We will not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states.  If you have any issue with this, you will need to take this up with your legislatures.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.
