BIO:  Chipper was previously adopted but was returned due to the adopter's health. Chipper just wants to find his last happily ever after; could you please be that home for him?

You could not ask for a better companion than Chipper. He is friendly, gets along with other dogs, and is housebroken; what more could you ask for?

Chipper rides great in the car and will cover himself with a blanket when it is cold. We really cannot say anything bad about this boy, only that he will be heartbroken if he does not get a forever home.

His Cushing’s is well controlled with the 5mg of Vetroyl and will cost about 60 dollars monthly. Bloodwork is needed about every two years. He just had a fresh dental and bloodwork done.

Please take a chance on this boy; you will not be sorry! 

============== 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.
