BIO:

This tiny bundle of energy is Brigit, a 3 year old smooth red female.  She came into rescue with her friends Red and Jada.  Brigit loves sitting on laps and staying right by your side wherever you go.  She is tiny, even for a Dachshund, so be careful where you step, because she likes to get underfoot.  She’s housebroken but prefers to stay inside.  She also loves being the center of attention and will give a funny little howl if you aren’t paying enough attention to her. And when she gets excited, her whole body shakes in a funny wiggle.  Brigit would make a wonderful addition to a family looking for a small, loving companion to keep them company. 

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 r 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.
