Sadly, she was not socialized and is shy around new people. Whoever adopts this sweet girl needs to have patience and take her out to places to get her accustomed to new things. Because she is young, we feel in time she’ll get over her shyness. Pepper appears to really like cats. So, a home with a dog savvy cat would be great. She does need a schedule for potty time but will use puppy pads when you are gone. Give this little girl a chance to be the pet she should be. Our must haves for her are: A fenced in yard, she loves zoomies and playing with toys in the yard. Another small dog friend to play with Someone that can be home more than not, she belonged to someone that was home all the time No apartments, high rises or condo, she loves the grass under her feet Please don’t let this little girl set in foster care just because she’s a Dachshund Wanna-be she deserves a home that will work with her and love her, and she’ll give it back to you. ============== 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. We cannot 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.
