I am a puppy mill survivor! I am known to be a mellow, happy-go-lucky girl, who is also sweet and good-natured. Most of the time you will find me with my tail wagging. I am not the type of dog who has to follow you around everywhere. I am independent, but I can also be a lap dog. I love to snuggle up on my foster mom. The couch is one of my favorite spots in the house! I am still a bit shy around strangers, but I have been known to go up to a random guy at the dog park and beg to be pet. I walk PERFECTLY on a leash with no pulling and rarely any stopping. I love playing with my foster fur siblings. Should you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact my foster mom at the email above. Please see below for more pictures of me and my video debut.

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.
