Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Hi … my name is Dillon! Read my bio to find out everything you need to know about me.   If you think I might be the perfect pup for you, go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms and complete the adoption application online. If you are not able to adopt, please consider donating to AAMR in my name to help with my extended care in rescue. Special needs pups are just that ... special ... and they just need special heroes to come to their rescue.  Have you tried on your hero cape lately? We don’t know a lot about Dillon's early life other than a Good Samaritan took him in to keep him safe after he appeared to have been abandoned on a rural road.  His Good Sam said he sat in one spot on the road for several days and appeared to be waiting for his ‘ride’ to come back to get him.  After about 4 days, he gave up and went looking for food and water, which he found in her garage!We do know that Dillon has some social anxiety issues and he can go from happy to distraught and nippy in situations with multiple people moving around in an area.  He has always done fine in his original foster home, but had a few 'incidents' in an adopting home, and he was returned to AAMR.  It is sad because Dillon is a very sweet and loving little guy ... until his anxiety takes over.  'Stranger Danger' is very real to him and in his mind, he needs to protect himself. We are not really sure of Dillon’s breed mix.  He has a dachshund-like body (long and low) with the head of a tiny yellow lab!  Dillon really deserves a family who wants to help him develop some confidence and some manners so he can be the lucky dog he is meant to be.  He is very excitable and vocal when left alone for too long and will not be the best apartment resident.  Dillon's wish list includes 1) a fenced yard, 2) an low-key, settled family willing to spend time with him and accept his limitations and 3) people to cuddle with every day who will teach him how to be the best boy ever.  Could that be you?Dillon does well with most other dogs, so having another confident, friendly dog in the home may be good for him.  Absolutely no children in the home.  If there are children visiting the home, it will be best to give Dillon a safe, out-of-the-way area to rest in his crate while the children are around.  They make him very anxious.Please read the rest of Dillon's bio below so you can learn more about him.Approximate age/birthdate: ~ early 2015 Weight/size:  ~25 lbs Housebroken:  YES ... as long as you do your part and let him outside often  Crate trained:  YES Personality:  happy, playful, guarded in new situations, wary of new people and animals, anxious about too much activity around him Energy level:  medium    Fenced yard required?:   YES – he definitely needs a safe place to run off excess energy.  A physical fence is required so someone could not just wander in and trigger his anxiety. Does he/she jump fences?  NO  Leash walk:  YES  Obedience training:  Yes, a previous owner took him to class and we know he is very smart. Riding in vehicles:  RIDES OK      Spayed/neutered:   YES Up-to-date on routine vaccinations:   YES Microchipped:   YES Social with other dogs:  Somewhat ... once properly introduced.  He gets excited when meeting new dogs and does not like dogs getting in his face.  He will growl if a new dog gets in his face.  Once he has time to properly meet a new dog, he generally does fine.    Social with cats:  Do not know … has not been around cats. We think he would chase them if they ran, but not sure if he would try to harm them. Good with children:  No Children ... he has nipped at children Adoption donation:  $175  We are an all-volunteer group, so please be patient and understand that it takes an average of 7-14 days to process the applications including reference checks, follow-up questions and home visits.  You can expedite the process by providing accurate email addresses for all your references.  Time to make phone calls is limited and we often have multiple applications in process.  We make every effort to move through them as quickly as possible.  When your application is approved, we will schedule a meet-and-greet to see if Dillon picks you too. If it seems that the adoption will be a good match for all, there is an adoption fee, and an adoption contract to be signed. Please email AAMR at weluvpups@hotmail.com if you have additional questions.  Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.March 16, 2026, 12:15 am

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Frederick is our sweet little old man. He was found as a stray and landed in a shelter. We rescued him soon after. He was a shelter favorite and needed a dental asap. He also had some skin issues but now his skin has cleared up and he is flea free. He immediately blended in with his foster family of dogs and new humans. He loves to play with his ball and sunbathe on the deck. He is definitely a lap dog but he does love his special chair. Good with all dogs and cats, neutered and heartworm negative.

Story
Callie (Chiweenie) is 7 years old and 14 poundsDollie is 7 years old and 11 pounds Fostered in Oak Island Adoption fee is $350 total for both Short list: Working on housetraining, loves to go on walks, super sweet, velcro dogs, loves to snuggle, cat friendly, gets along with small dogs, cratetrained, needs quiet home without alot of visitors, no kids under 12 Two are better than one! And that's the case with Dollie and Callie. These girls are the perfect blend of sweet and sassy. We are looking for a quiet home without a lot of visitors for these sweet ladies. They are a bonded pair and will only be adopted together.  Dolly is as sweet as they come and absolutely loves belly rubs. She enjoys long walks, exploring the beach and the neighborhood, and taking in all the sights and smells along the way. After a fun day of adventures, Dolly is happiest curled up in your lap for some quiet snuggle time. Callie also loves her walks, but her favorite place is right by your side. She’s a gentle, affectionate companion who enjoys staying close and is perfectly content simply being near you while you go about your daily routine. Like Dolly, Callie loves to snuggle and relax after a busy day. Callie loves her people, but is the self appointed security guard of her home. And she would be employee of the year at any security company - she does her job with gusto. We have found that by putting Callie in a crate when new people come over and letting Dollie meet them first, that Callie accepts new visitors with very limited drama. They would do best in a home without a ton of visitors. However, they do get to know regular vistors after a few times and are very accepting. Callie has nipped before when not propertly introduced so they need a home without kids under 12.  Both girls are wonderfully calm around the cat in the home. And unlike most dachshunds, they actually come when they are called. They’re working hard on their house training and making progress, but their new home should expect accidents. They do well with their foster mom's working schedule and would be fine in a family that works outside the home. They get along with small dogs and would do great as only dogs or with small dog friends. They are great on a leash and not reactive at all to people or other dogs.  Dollie and Callie both do very well in their crates and even like to keep the doors open so they can pop in and out throughout the day. At bedtime, they settle in easily, sleep soundly through the night, and wake up ready for another happy day together. Dollie and Callie are spayed, UTD on shots, heartworm negative and had dentals. Dolly has luxating patellas and she was born with very bowlegged back legs. We had them radiographed and the vet said it was not surgical. They do not cause her any pain or get in her way of being an active dachshund.  Their new family will need to drive to Oak Island, NC to adopt. We prefer families in NC, VA, SC, eastern TN, MD, northern GA and WV. To get the adoption process started, fil out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/application.  If you’re looking for two loyal little shadows to share your days and your couch, Dollie and Callie may be the perfect match. These bonded girls have so much love to give and are ready to find a calm, patient home where they can continue to thrive together. In return, they’ll reward you with endless snuggles, companionship, and devotion. ##2688963##

Story
Buddy Love Fostered in Raleigh 18 pounds 14 years old  Short list: Super friendly, gets along with other dogs, could be only with someone home a lot, housetrained Some dogs get their names by chance, but Buddy Love earned his. He is truly a total love, and everyone who meets him falls for his sweet, gentle personality. Buddy has never met a stranger—just friends he hasn't made yet. This dude is truly an amazing boy. As he approaches his 14th birthday, Buddy seems completely unaware that he's considered a senior. He still enjoys exploring the house and yard, waddling around to see what's going on. Then every now and then surprising everyone with an adorable case of the zoomies. This boy absolutely LOVES toys, like wants all the toys and gets super excited when he sees his favorite. He has requested a home with lots and lots of toys. Buddy gets along wonderfully with other dogs of all ages. He would also do fine as an only as long as his people were home more than not. Buddy is perfectly content hanging out on the sofa with his foster mom, soaking up pets and enjoying the simple pleasures in life. He's not a velcro dog like some dachshunds, but he does enjoy being where his people are. And he LOVES getting attention. This easygoing guy loves his cozy bed and is happy to spend a good portion of the day napping. He's completely laid back, takes life as it comes, and has a calm, steady presence that makes him a joy to be around. He walks nicely on a leash—just don't expect to get anywhere quickly! Buddy prefers to take his time and enjoy the scenery. Buddy is housetrained when kept on a routine, but like many senior dogs, his adopters should expect the occasional accident as he settles into a new home. He would do best in a quieter household with children over 8 years old, though he's perfectly fine visiting with younger children, such as grandkids. Buddy cannot do stairs and will need either single-level living or a family willing to carry him when necessary. Fortunately, he doesn't mind being picked up at all. Buddy is also apartment-friendly, making him a great choice for someone looking for a calm companion. Buddy's new family will need to travel to Raleigh, NC to adopt - no transports. We prefer to adopt to families in NC, VA, SC, northern GA, eastern TN, DC area and WV. To get the process started, fill out an application at www.doxiebyproxy.org/application Buddy is neutered, had a dental and senior bloodwork. He has a mild heart murmur (grade 2) - we had an echocardiogram and he doesn't need medication at this point. He had a mass on his hind end that we removed and was benign. All in all, this dude is pretty healthy for his age. If you're searching for a sweet, affectionate, low-maintenance companion who will happily share your sofa, your daily routine, and your heart, Buddy Love is ready to show you exactly how he got his name. ##2735276##

If you are looking for a professional true crime watcher and lap sitter look no further! Since you’re reading this, you’re obviously looking for a new best friend and, hey, so am I! My name is Buddy, and I am an adorable, incredibly affectionate Dachshund who is also a very young 7-ish years old. I would describe myself as medium sized however my current foster Mom thinks I’m a little chonky. I DO love snacks and am very food motivated. She has said that I am very handsome, stunning with loving eyes and love kissing her and giving her all the affection and kisses. I DO enjoy baths and love the attention that I receive on spa days! I have a unique personality, and nothing makes me happier than seeing someone reach for a leash and or lead to take me outside for a walk or just to play and roll in the grass. I am still working on my leash manners and I foresee in time, being able to be more patient and allow you to keep up with me. I have enjoyed roaming in the fenced in yard and smelling the roses, literally. I am happy to load up into the vehicle and go for rides. I love looking out the windows and sight seeing!During the day, while my foster folks are at work, I am happy to lay around my open crate in the same room with my foster sister while we wait for them to come home. I am learning to not jump when we get company or someone comes over due to my excitement and will, with patience, learn to be calmer. I slept in the crate at night a couple of times, but my foster mom got lonely, so I got in bed with her and my foster sister (she is 70 pounds! Talk about chonky!).I do seem to get along well with other dogs and recently went for a nail trim and there were several dogs there to meet and greet, and we all seemed to like each other and get along. The groomer and I bonded instantly, and I do make friends quickly. I am interested in the cat here, where I stay, but she doesn’t like me…you know how uppity some cats can be. I think my ideal human(s) would be either a quiet older person or a retired couple who could devote their time to me. I bond strongly with my special person and am looking for someone who can be home with me, and we can solve true crime shows together. I don’t care for sudden movements or loud noises and will be discerning about new people, so I don’t think that I would like to be around small children. I think that small people and their energy may be overwhelming to me, but I hear that’s typical for pups like me. I am a very smart boy who prefers routine and will alert (bark) when I want to go outside to potty or just get out of the house, of course I know that a treat is coming when I’ve been a “good boy”. So, what do you say? Wanna give it a try? I really need a bestie and someone to watch TV with. Please reach out soon!FOCCAS is a foster based, non-profit rescue in Crossville, TN.
