The dachshunds come from various situations. Most are still with their owners. Reasons for owner placements range from death of owner, divorces, new babies, moving, to new white carpeting. Many are happy, healthy companions who need and deserve a second chance. They are only accepted for listing when we have few or no rescue Dachshunds waiting for homes.
Rescue always comes first.
How Does Our Rescue Work We are primarily a referral service. We rarely, emergency only, take possession of rescue dachshunds. As far as possible, we work from a list of people waiting to give a home to one of the foundlings. When we receive a call from a dachshund needing a new home, we check our list for compatible matches and place calls to prospective new owners. We act as a dating service connecting dachshunds with good homes.
