BIO:

Gabby and 9 other dogs are probably one of the worst cases of puppymill neglect we’ve seen. Gabby’s teeth were latterly rotten out of her head, she had patches of hair missing and toe-nails growing into her pads. Gabby and 47 other dogs were pulled from a puppymiller in Western KY. We got her and two others, one we could not save and Phyllis is going to be in foster for about 6 mos. Gabby was the best of those we got but still in horrible shape. We fill now she is ready to find her forever home. We’ve told you about her past now on to her personality.

Gabby is just the sweetest and happiest girl you’d ever want to meet. She loves everyone, is not shy and gets along with all the dogs in the foster home. She is grateful for any and all attention that you give her and LOVES belly rubs. Her tail never stops wagging. I’m sure she’s glad to be out of that awful place she was in. If you are looking for a companion that is happy for any little crumb that you give her and you can put in a soft-sided carrier then Gabby is the one for you. She would do very well in an apt or in a fenced in yard. She will need work with leash-training that’s the only negative about Gabby we can see. Please make Gabby’s dream come true for a new forever home for the holidays coming up and a present under the tree from Santa to her. This girl needs to be spoiled and in return will give you years of love and kisses. Oh because she has not teeth left she does have to be on soft food and her little tongue hangs out but it’s so so cute when she looks at you with tongue out and tail wagging. You just have to see it to appreciate it!

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 for 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.
