Story
So my name is Betty! I am a beautiful long hair 6 year old Dachshund. My coat is rich redish brown with tan markings. I have big soulful eyes and short little legs. My favorite thing is to snuggle on a lap. I recently arrived in foster care with Tiny Paws Small Dog Rescue. I have already showed what a sweetheart I am. Betty is not fully housetrained, but she is catching on quick. She is also learning what that leash thing is and how it works. Betty gets along with the other dogs in the foster home and even the cats. My foster mom, Maggie thinks a home with people teenage and up would be best. If you are interesting in adopting Betty please put an application in at tinypawssmalldogrescue.org.

Story
Meet this adorable little Doxie-ish mama, around 24 years old and just 15 pounds of sweetness ! She came to us from a hoarding situation, so the world was a big, scary place at first. During her first week in foster care, she was shy and unsureshe didnt know basic commands or even how to walk on a leash. But wow, has she come a long way! Now, shes truly blossoming. Her tail wags, her personality is shining through, and shes even discovered some quirky habitslike sleeping in the funniest spots (yes, even on top of her kennel!). She may still let out a bark at neighbors or her reflection, but shes learning quickly and settles down with a gentle reminder! Shes been working hard and already knows sit, stay, down, and outsidesuch a smart girl! She absolutely loves to snuggle and may occasionally climb right up to your face for affection, but with a little guidance, she happily curls up beside you. She gets along well with her fosters beagle but can feel overwhelmed in large groups of dogs, so a calmer home or smaller pack would suit her best. This sweet girl is playful, loving, and full of personality. Shes overcome so much and is ready to keep growing with a family who will guide her with patience and love. Shes sure to bring smiles, laughs, and lots of cuddles to her forever home If youre interested in one of our dogs or would like help finding the perfect match please submit an application at: https://forgoodrescue.net/dog-adoption/We will not discuss details regarding any particular dog if you have not yet applied to adopt.For Good Rescue is a 100% volunteer nonprofit organization.

It was a tough decision but one that had to be done. Gemma is as sweet as they come and very friendly. She LOVES attention and will follow you where ever you go in the house and yard. She gets along great with other dogs male and female but please no big dogs because as little as she is and never having been around a big dog they would scare her too much. We are also saying no to cats mainly because she’s never been around on and we have no way of properly testing her with a cat. If you are looking for a love bug then Gemma would be the one for you but understand she has never been an only dog so we’ll only consider people that have another young, small dog to keep her company while you have to be out of the home. Our must haves for Gemma are: • Fenced in yard • Someone that can be home more than not • Another young, small dog for her to play with and cuddle with • No apartments, high rises or condos since she like other Dachshunds likes to bark If you think you can give Gemma the home she deserves please apply online and go through the approval process. ============== 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.
