BIO:

Truffles is such a pretty girl and is too cute for words! She is the smallest pup of the girls, but she is the self-appointed boss and thinks the others should obey! When she’s not bossing the others around, she likes to play,  sleep, eat, and explore.  Truffles is well socialized and is a work-in-progress and will require a family that is willing to teach her good manners, boundaries, and be consistent with housetraining. She and her sisters are too young to be spayed, but have appointments scheduled for the 21st of March. Or, you can choose to adopt now with a $75 deposit which will be returned with proof of spay.

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.
