BIO:

Suzy came to us from a puppy mill in the middle of December. She has a very sweet disposition. Her world has changed so much in the last 10 days so it comes as no surprise that she’s a bit skittish. She is shy and needs a lot of love. We are currently working on the house-training and walking her on a leash. She has a good appetite and loves to cuddle up on the couch.

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.
