BIO: Jetson is a retire breeder gentleman. He is shy and will need patience until he knows he is a pet now. You can tell he wants the human attention but just is not sure. He is fine with other dogs but we do not think he would be ok with big dogs or cats. Sadly, he lost 21 teeth when he had his dental but when all healed, he should be able to eat hard kibble.

Our must haves for Jetson are:

A fenced in yard
Another small adult well socialized dogs for him to learn from
Someone with patience and time to help him be the pet he should be
No apartment, high rises, or condos

If you think you can help this boy and have some breeder dog experience and want to show him how to be a pet then please apply, you will not be sorry.





============== 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.

There will be an additional $60 fee added for a required Health Certificate if traveling out of the state in which they are being fostered.

We will not 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.

Click this link to apply: https://www.allamericandachshundrescue.org/apply, it will take you to the application form.

Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers who will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or Midwest. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. Please look for dogs on your coast.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

They must go to our website, fill out our online adoption application and submit a copy of their DL then we call their vet, if favorable then we move on to talking to the adopter and letting them know all about the dog good, bad and ugly, then if they want to continue on we contact their references with a set of questions and if that is favorable then we do a virtual homevisit. If all is approved then we send them the contract they sign it and pay the adoption fee and they either come to get the dog or we help with transporting the dog to them.
