He is a very sweet little guy who likes to be with you at all times. He is very quiet, doesn't make a sound, unless he can't see you. He is potty trained on puppy pads and going outside. He does have an occasional accident, but very rarely. He can use a doggie door with no problems. Gunter has two foster siblings whom he follows around but doesn't really play with. He will carry a squeaky toy around like a prize! Gunter has been around his two foster siblings (Chihuahuas) and a few other dogs and doesn't seem to mind any of them. He's also been around our cat, which he has no interest in. He sleeps all night in his kennel and curls up and sleeps in his seat on car rides. Gunter goes to work with me every day and is as quiet as a mouse. He doesn't chew on things or get into anything. With his fur being a blue and tan-dilute, he does have some pattern baldness and will be prone to sunburn, so t-shirts or manly muscle shirts should be a part of his wardrobe. In winter, Gunter will be more sensitive to cold temperatures than other dogs and would need to wear coats and sweaters. But hey, dressing your pup in cute shirts and sweaters is just one of the fun things about having a Doxie! Our must-haves for sweet Gunter include: A fenced yard Another younger to adult well-socialized dog for Gunter to hang with. No big dogs since he's never been around them. Someone with breeder dog experience is a plus No apartments, high-rises, or condos, please Gunter is a very well-behaved dog and would be perfect for someone who wants a constant companion! ============= 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.

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.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
