BIO: Bosco was surrendered because his owner saw how unhappy he was living in an apartment so she gave him up to make him happy and he LOVES a fenced in yard so that is a MUST. If you don’t have a fenced yard, please do not apply.

Bosco also needs another younger dog to play with so he can enjoy your fenced in yard, but with that being said he is also great when y’all sit down at night and are ready for down time... he is too.

Because he is so young please don’t expect him to stay in a crate for 8-10 hours and hold it…max would be 4-5 hours. With a doggie door he wouldn’t need to be crated because he’s not destructive when left, but again he must have a younger dog to play with.

Bosco is great with kids, the family that gave him up had a 2 year old toddler and they played great together.

Please make his wish come true for a forever family with another younger dog and a fenced in yard. Bosco said he’ll make you not regret making that decision to add another member to your family!!

=============== Information for all dogs/adopters ==============

If you have questions about this dog please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed above.  They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal. 

We welcome out of state and Canadian adoptions, but we will not ship any dog via cargo. You will have to make arrangements to pick up the dog or for them to go by ground transport. If you choose transporting by either volunteers through our organization or by paid transporter, there will be an additional $45 Fee added for the required Health Certificate. 

We will not adopt into the state of CT, RI or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have an issue with this, you need to take this up with your legislatures.

We are now approved to adopt/foster in the state of NH but adopters will have to pay health certificate fee of $45.00 once to get the dog to our quarantine facility and another $50.00 fee to get the dog out of quarantine after two days.

To understand the adoption process through AADR, please visit the Adoption Information.  Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

If you are interested in adopting this Dachshund please Read Before You Adopt and then you can complete an Application.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN A RESCUE.

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 or up and down the West Coast. We just can't get them from one Coast to the other but some day we hope to have enough volunteers to do that as well.  For now, please look for dogs on your coast.

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.
