BIO:  We are unsure of her situation prior to AADR but she weighs only 8 pounds.  She had very bad dental caries and a skin infection which caused her to lose her fur.  Her situation must have been pretty terrible.   But this little girl is a super star!  Abba is gaining weight and eating like a champ since her dental surgery and is growing a beautiful shiny black coat.  She is a very loving little old lady and will be best suited in a home with no other dogs or children.  She is scheduled to be spayed this month, we wanted to wait and not have back to back surgeries.  She sleeps with her foster mommy and daddy that give her a lot of love and attention.   Abba is crate trained and we are still working on housetraining her.  This little girl has several very happy and healthy years left. 

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.

If shipping by volunteers through our organization or paid transporter, then there will be an additional $35

Fee the Health Certificate required. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo.  Please Read Before You Adopt to learn more about transportation options.  If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and Fill Out an Application.

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.
