BIO:   Gabriele is forever the explorer.  Always confident and the first to do anything.  Gabe will put a smile on your face with his enthusiasm.  He is happy to sleep or watch from his blankey and when he is tired he just stops everything and goes to sleep.  His black and gold coat is smooth and shines like glass.   When you hold him he wraps his front paws around your fingers or tucks his paws under his chest like a kitty when he is taking in his surroundings and wondering what to make of his new world. 

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.
