Would that be you? He is a shy boy but with love and patience we know he can be the most loving little boy you have ever had. However, you need to have patience for him to come out of his shell and learn to be a pet not a breeder dog. You can see the longing in his eyes when you look at him. He wants to trust, but he is just not sure, give him that reassurance. He gets along with other small dogs. We do not know about big dogs, so we are going to say “no” since he has never been around them. As Samson settles into his foster home, think about adopting him and giving him your love. We will update his bio as we learn more about him. In the meantime, our must haves are: A fenced in yard Another small, adult, well socialized dog for him to learn from Someone that can be home more than not No apartment, high rises, or condos If you are wanting to adopt him then go to our website www.allamericandachshundrescue.org and fill out our online adoption application. ============== 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.
