Story
Candy is a 3-year-old female who would love to add some cute quirkiness to your household. This 13ish pound dachshund mix is named for the Dolly Parton song "Hard Candy Christmas." Like Dolly, she's from the Smokies, and like in the song, she's had a rough start to life, but her future is full of possibilities. She loves cheese, celery and playing with a stuffed pig.She doesn't mind the presence of humans and might even welcome you home with sniffs, but petting is overwhelming to her. She enjoys cuddling with doggo friends but not sharing food with them. She also does not tolerate leashing/harnessing. Treat her like a piece of fine art; she needs her own safe space and to be admired but not touched. Because of this, she may not be a good fit for families with young children or those in an apartment.Candy will take a while to warm up in her new fur-ever home, but will reward patient humans willing to give her space with pint-sized zoomies and adorable antics. Maybe even a lick or two, but always on her terms!Candy is up to date on vaccines, spayed, microchipped, dewormed, started on monthly flea and heartworm prevention and her adoption fee is $250.  All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information. Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label. Mountain Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit tax deductible charity (EIN 82-3039637) located in Asheville, NC. May 20, 2026, 1:56 am

That is where you come in, you need to have the patience to show her what a great life she could have. It would be helpful if you had another small, adult, well-socialized dog that she could learn from. Poppy does enjoy her food and is learning about treats. But please, not too many, we want her to keep her girlish figure. Your job, should you decide to take it, is to teach her leash training and with patience potty training. Poppy is smart and food motivated so training should be an easy process if you are consistent. This little girl will require some work on your part but oh the benefits are well worth it. Cuddle time and doggie kisses. Our must have for sweet Poppy are: Fenced yard Someone home more than not or another socialized dog to keep her company but you must be home enough to help her with housetraining Sadly, no apartments, high rises or condos as Dachshunds like to bark at things that go bump in the night Because she is so cute she will not last long. Get your application in ASAP. We do help with transporting. ============== 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 cannot 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.

Because she was a breeding dog, she was not well socialized and will need patience when meeting new people. Once she warms up to you, she’s a sweetheart! While she may be 6 years old, she has a lot of spunk and would be best with another younger adult small dog to learn to play with. The one thing that you must understand is that she doesn’t know what it’s like to be a pet, so you will need patience when adopting her. Our must-haves for beautiful Stella include: A fenced yard Someone who is home more often than not Another younger, small, well-socialized dog for her to play with and learn from No apartment, high-rises, or condos, please If you have the experience and the patience, then you are welcome to apply for sweet little Stella. ============== 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.

She has not been well socialized therefore whomever adopts her must have the patience to bring her out of her shell. She may never be comfortable around strangers but after she gets comfortable in your home that is something that the adopter must work on. Once in your arms she is a real sweetheart. She would be great to snuggle up on the couch together and watch a movie or just to cuddle. Understand again she will need YOU to teach her how to be a pet and not afraid of the unknown. Are you up to the challenge? We know this sounds all negative but she truly is a sweet girl and does great with other dogs her size. No big dogs please, they would scare her. Our must haves for her are: • A fenced in yard • Another adult, small well socialized dog for her to learn from • Someone that can be home more than not and most importantly be patient and show her there is nothing to be afraid of and help her to be a friendly pet • Sorry no apartments, high rises or condos because dachshunds do bark If you feel this is a task you are willing to under take then please go to our website and fill out our online adoption application, today. ============== 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.

Story
Meet Tucker! Tucker is a 9-year-old Dachshund mix (maybe with some Beagle!) who’s the definition of a chill, loyal companion. He’s about 20 lbs, crate, potty, and leash trained, and great with dogs, cats, and kids.   This cuddly guy just wants to be near his person, snoozing beside you, tagging along on errands, or soaking up attention. He’s confident around bigger dogs but not afraid to give them a grumpy old-man warning if they get too close.   Tucker’s calm, gentle nature makes him an easy dog to take anywhere - no barking, no fuss. He does have a small fatty lump near his belly (non-cancerous) that may be removed during his upcoming dental.   Whoever adopts him is getting a total gem!   He is neutered, dewormed, microchipped, current with all vaccines (as appropriate for his age) and on flea and heartworm prevention. Tucker is currently being fostered in South Carolina. ADOPT TUCKER! www.LuckyPupRescueSC.com The adoption fee is $375.00 and we require a vet check and home visit. March 7, 2026, 9:51 am

Meet Pilot!  Want a super energetic, collector of toys (including personal items if left in the floor LOL) and cuddly mini potato? I’m your guy. I may take a minute to warm up but once I do, I’m yours forever. You’ll never stop petting me because I feel like cotton and I’ll let you hold me like a baby and melt in your arms. Still trying to figure out potty training, but having other dogs to follow, I’ll catch on pretty darn fast! I would love another dog companion, one larger even works! I can be a bit rowdy playing. I’m super food motivated, will do anything you tell me too for treats. Zoomies happen on the daily, so get ready! I play hard and sleep hard. Yes, I snore...   He is neutered, dewormed, microchipped, current with all vaccines (as appropriate for his age) and on flea and heartworm prevention. Pilot is currently being fostered in South Carolina. ADOPT PILOT!! www.LuckyPupRescueSC.com The adoption fee is $375.00 and we require a vet check and home visit. March 7, 2026, 9:51 am

Story
Do you like floppy ears? Feeling loved unconditionally? How about a buddy that thinks the sun rises and sets in your presence? Meet Cleetus, an 8-year-old Beagle with a big heart and an even bigger love for food. At around 30 pounds, he’s an active guy who enjoys attention and is always ready to make new friends, especially if treats are involved. Cleetus has a sweet, eager personality, and truly enjoys playing with other dogs. Although, in fairness, Cleetus enjoys just about everything. Sunny day? Nice. Rainy day? Also nice. And if you don't agree, Cleetus will convince you. He's that guy. As a seasoned gentleman, Cleetus was recently neutered, and has fully embraced this season of his life. No pretense, just calm, and oddly quiet for a Beagle. Cleetus invites you to fill out an application so you can see what a genuinely good boy he is!
