All Texas Dachshund Rescue, Inc., is made up of a group of volunteers whose primary goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home disabled and otherwise endangered Dachshunds who have found themselves homeless for one reason or another. It is our policy that no dogs will be adopted out without first being spayed or neutered, have had all vaccines updated, are heartworm negative, are on heartworm preventative, and have had all other health issues we consider important to the pet’s life addressed that we are able.
All incoming Dachshunds will be placed in temporary foster homes, where they will be evaluated while living indoors with the foster families in a safe and nurturing home environment, until such time as they are ready to be placed in a loving, adoptive, forever home.
A 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Create an alert, and we'll notify you every time a new pet comes in who meets your criteria.

We rescue Dachshunds throughout the entire state of Texas, with focus in areas including Houston, Austin, Dallas, Ft Worth, San Antonio, Seguin, College Station, and Beaumont.
All Texas Dachshund Rescue is unable to adopt any dogs outside of the state of Texas. This is necessary because we do not have ATDR volunteers in other states available to do the required pre-adoption home visit, provide post adoption assistance if needed, and conduct routine follow-up for our adopted dogs and their new families and homes. We encourage you to search for rescues in your area or state. There are also several national Dachshund Rescues as well.
