BIO:
I don't know for sure what this boy dealt with prior to being rescued, but it must have been terrible.  His body and face are covered in scars, the tip of one ear is missing, and the tip of his tail is twice broken. Regardless of his past, Jackson is easily the most affectionate dachshund I've had the pleasure of fostering!  He gets along great with the dogs and will bond very closely to his human.  He follows me all over the house and sleeps with me under the covers at night.  When we go out for walks or to petsmart he gets tons of compliments on his color and his calm, laid back personality.  Because of Jackson's limited vision he doesn't deal well with change.  He is also very scared of fast moving children and should not be exposed to them.  I do put Jackson in a large crate with another calm dog while I'm out simply because he will look for me constantly and bark at the front door until I return.  When left in the crate he will go straight to his bed and curl up to go to sleep.  When we're all lounging in the afternoon he will corral all of the toys and nylabones on the big dog bed.  After chewing on his current favorite, he'll jump on the couch and curl up as close to me as he can get!  He would be happy to spend all day in your lap and he needs someone who will lavish him with love and attention!  If you're looking for a total lover who can snuggle and cuddle the day away, then this boy is for you!!

About Our Rescue Group...
We are a non-profit organization that rescues dachshunds from shelters, owner surrenders and fully vets them including dental and heartworm treated if needed and all health issues addressed before they are put on the website to be adopted. We do this due to the fact that there are so many Dachshunds out there that are bred and brought by people that don't know the breed and after they get the dog home and find out after a couple of months that they can't housebreak the dog and it's not good with their kids, they dump the dog in the shelters or if we are lucky they contacts us. Some Dachshund are not so lucky and get shifted to several homes or are sold to puppymills that bred them into the groud.

Come Meet Our Pets...
All of our dogs are in foster homes in TN, AL, LA, KY, AR, AZ, NY, CT, VA, MD, NC, FL, and GA. They can not be seen at any one place but all foster homes are happy to send you additional pictures or answer any questions you may have in regards to their fosters. We do not have any regular place that we go to to show off our dogs but if you are close to the foster home we will be glad to meet you somewhere to show you a or any dogs that you may be interested in.
Our Adoption Process...
Our fees are as follows
0 to 1yr....350.00 no charge for chip
1-4 yrs.....275.00+10.00 chip fee
4-7 yrs.....250.00+10.00 chip fee
7-9 yrs.....200.00+10.00 chip fee
10 yrs and up and special needs 150.00+10.00 chip fee
All dogs are spayed/neutered/UTD on all shots/heartworm checked and treated if necessary and dental if necessary.
You do have to fill out an online adoption application at www.ssdr.org and we will do a phone interview, check your references and vet and we WILL DO a homevisit no matter what state you are in. To adopt a dachshund you must either have a fenced in yard or ALWAYS keep them on leash. These are hunters and if you allow them to run free they will NOT come back or will be hit by a car or attacked by another dog. When you adopt the dog you are giving a two week trail period and if you feel you need more time we are happy to give that to you if you will notify us. We also make you sign a contract that is a legal and binding contract. Once you put in a application to adopt one of our fosters we will try to get back to you as soon as possible. If you have not heard from us in a week please e mail us as your app may have gotten lost. We also have the right to refuse to adopt to anyone that we feel would not make a good home for our Dachshunds. Please remember these dogs have been in at least 2-3 homes possible more and it could take the whole two weeks for them to adjust and possobly longer.
We Serve the Following Cities, Towns, and/or Counties...
All over the US.
