Story
We rescued 17 dachshund and chiweenies in August. They had not been socialized, their owner died in the house. We are slowly working with these babies and the ones we feel are ready, we get fixed and find them homes. These babies will need a patient family who will work with getting them comfortable in a new house. They may be flight risks so will need to be monitored all the time. Some have been adopted already and have done well. They are not used to being petted, picked up or touched.They are not used to kids so slow introductions will be needed but we don’t see them not liking kids. They are such brave little ones that we are determined they will all eventually get new homes. Ranger is the tallest of the group, not sure what gene is in there! He likes to walk his ‘perimeter’ and bark at anyone who comes near. He likes to play although they aren’t sure how to. He has the little dog energy and would be great with any family.

These pups are in Shelbyville, Tennessee too!

Lady was dumped at a shelter in East Tennessee when her owner went into a nursing home, and no one in the family would take her. She is fine with other small dogs but prefers to be an only dog, but you must be a strong pack leader, as she was allowed to run the house when she was with her old owner. Lady does take a bit to warm up to strangers. She was scared to death when she came to us, but after she had time to decompress, she became a happy, lovely girl. Lady loves sleeping in her fluffy, calming bed but would prefer to be with you in your bed. She also loves to share the recliner for a nap or to catch the latest movie. This little lady will even play a bit if you have another small dog, but mostly, she wants to keep your lap warm. But first, you must give her time to learn that you are okay and she is safe. Lady doesn’t like the rain or snow, so a puppy pad would be best for those days when she cannot go outside. Our must-haves for sweet Lady include: A fenced yard Needs an experienced dachshund owner! Someone who is home most of the time Another adult, small dog for her to pal around with No apartments or high-rises, as she will bark at strange noises If you think you want to give this sweet, beautiful girl her forever home, please complete our online adoption application. We will contact you after we call your vet. ============== 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.

A former breeder dog, Myles is still learning how to trust people and other dogs but has come a long way since arriving at his foster home. He follows the other dog in his foster home around all the time and has learned a lot from her. Because of that, Myles must go to a home with another dog who he can continue to learn from. Once he feels comfortable with you, he'll follow you around, too, and will want to be with you. Myles would make a great addition to a family with older children and a dog he can hang out with. He’s a very sweet dog; he just needs a little time to feel comfortable with his new family. But he will get there!

While he’s been here in foster care he’s made some good strides. We can tell he wants the attention but he’s still just a little shy, but he has his tail up and wagging and gets along with all the other fosters in my care.  If you are willing to put in the work, he’ll make a beautiful pet for you. Bandit continues to do well in foster care.  He loves to horn in when other dogs are getting attention.  He's learning that it's wonderful to be petted and cuddled but at first, he'll be shy so the adopter will have to be patient until he understands you are his new owner. This boy really needs another young small dog to play with and he loves doing zoomies with other dogs or if you are outside in the yard while walking around the yard.  He will do best with a young family that can give him the exercise he needs not only with another young small dog but walks on a leash or just outdoor play time.  He does get a little protective of toys and loves playing with them.  Take a chance you won't be sorry with this boy if you are willing to put in the work. Our must haves for Bandit are: A fenced in yard Another young small dog that is well socialized so he can learn from them Someone with patience or breeder dog experience that understands it is going to take time A single-family home only is what he has to have Someone that could be home more than not If you meet all these requirements and want to adopt then please go to our website and apply online.   Bandit is a handsome guy so don’t wait.  ============== 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.
