BIO: Snickers is a retired breeder dog and would do well in a home that has experience with breeder dogs. She is very friendly and doesn't seem to be afraid of strangers. It would also be helpful if there were another small, socialized dog for her to learn from. All in all, if you are new to breeder surrenders, Snickers would probably be a good one to learn from. When it comes to housebreaking, you'll need patience and maybe a doggie door.
Our must-haves for pretty Miss Snickers include:
A fenced yard
Another small social dog for her to learn from
Someone who has the patience to work with her and is home more often than not
Please, no apartments, high-rises, or condos, as Dachshunds bark
If you feel you fit the bill and want to give Snickers a great forever home, then let us know by completing our online adoption application. We do help with transporting if you are out of state.
============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============
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.
If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed on the bio form. They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal.
We can not adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have any issue with this, you will need to take this up with your legislatures.
To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page. Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers who will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or Midwest. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. Please look for dogs on your coast.
