BIO: Diesel came from West TN when his owner could not keep him due to job constraints. Diesel is a social butterfly and warms up quickly to everyone. He will be giving you kisses and snuggling with you in no time. He is very energetic and loves to play, so a home with another young, small dog or medium, gentle dog would be idea. He also likes his alone time and when he's done playing, he will occupy himself by playing with a toy or doing zoomies around the yard. As much as he loves playing, he also loves to snuggle and loves to drape himself all over his 38 lbs. foster sister or sneak under his foster mom's arm when she's typing on the couch and take over so that she has to stop working and pay attention to him. Diesel is very loving once he deems you ok in his book and will give you as many kisses as you can handle.
He is mostly housetrained, only has accidents if you don't take him out on a schedule. He can sleep through the night without having to go but his foster family puts down pee pads just in case (but he's only used it once!). Like a typical dachshund, he tends to drizzle a little pee when he gets too excited, but it's happening less and less now that he's more comfortable in his foster home. He does like to jump, so his foster mom now has gates up all over the house and ramps or small steps up for him to get up and down the couch. If you're a doxie person, you'll see why everyone is falling in love with Diesel all over the internet!
Diesel has extra cartilage in his one ear but that just makes him all the cuter.
Our must haves for Mr. Diesel:
A fenced in yard
Another young small dog for him to play with
Someone that is home more than not, this is a plus
Because dachshunds are known barker we cannot adopt to anyone in an apartment, high rise or condo
Are you the right home for him?
============== 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 dachshunds 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.
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.

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.
