My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

This is Bean. He’s a chiweenie . He came to us from a hoarding house a while back.
Bean has some preferences for his forever home. He wants to be the only dog. No men, cats, or people with hats! (He’s going to write a Dr. Seuss book for little neurotic dogs ). Kids are weird and must be barked at endlessly, so probably he doesn’t want to live with any of those, either.
Bean’s foster mom reports that Bean would happily stay under the covers in bed for days at a time.
Bean is 5-6 years old and about 6 pounds. He’s a very sweet boy (if you aren’t any of the things he hates that are clearly outlined above ) . He has this little trick where he puts his paws to his chest for treats and spins
Bean's adoption fee is $300 and he is fully vetted including a recent dental.

Additional adoption info

It is flexible and responsive with a minimum of red tape and no pre-conceived notions.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

We encourage approved adopters to come meet their new forever dachshunds at the home of the foster parent. We also attend selected events such as the Washington Metro DachtoberFest held the first Saturday in October in Frederick MD. Although we do not attend scheduled adoption events we do plan to schedule special K Kids events throughout VA with a focus on Richmond and Charlottesville at least initially.

More about this rescue

We save dachshund lives by matching them from shelters and surrendering owners, regardless of age or health or even selected needed behavior modification, with pre-screened adopters who will give them loving and safe forever homes and take care of them for the rest of their lives. We are adopter friendly and work without judgment. Our goal is to prevent dachshunds from ever entering the shelter or rescue system to begin with by focusing on owner education which covers dachshund health and behavior issues, financial counseling for vet expenses, and estate planning for what happens if your dachshund outlives you. We do this because of our passionate and fierce devotion to the breed.
