Animal Shelters help improve the community by requiring that adopted animals be neutered or spayed, which helps lower the pet overpopulation. Each year 8 to 12 million dogs, cats, puppies and kittens are euthanized because there are not enough homes for them.

It is Amazing How Much LOVE Dachshunds Can Bring Into Our Lives.
All Dachshunds in a Shelter are in need of a second chance. They were lost, abandoned, or given away. They are helpless and they need a loving home.
Adopting A Dachshund Will Change Your Life
So many doxies need homes that are still quite young, already house trained, and may be the better option for your family than starting off with a new puppy. Remember, new puppies will require more Training and Attention than a dog that is a little older.

Hello , I’m just wondering if there’s any good dachshund rescue shelters in WASHINGTON STATE? I live on the Washington coast in OCEAN SHORES. My little sweet girl passed away a week ago. Not in a hurry to find one but if the right one for me is out there I may consider! Thank you for any suggestions!!

looking to rescue a dachshund dog or puppy.
Hi Mary, Please take a look at all of the dachshund rescues above, they have many doxies looking for homes.
Hello everyone,
I have been a doxiedad for many years, just sent one with kidney disease over the rainbow bridge recently. Almost all my Dachshunds have been rescues, and counting the 2 I have now that makes 17. You would think the older you get and the more dogs you lose, would get used to it and it wouldn’t bother you as much. It is worse, bothers me a lot more the older I get. I have rescued a lot of older Dachshunds, but if I get a chance I’ll like to get a young one even a puppy. I will always have a dog, most likely a Dachshund, always had one, had other dogs also but always had a Dachshund.
Take care everyone and be safe.
John
Hello John, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you. No matter what age they are…they are gone too soon. It is wonderful that you have given so many Rescue Dachshunds a loving home over the years. God Bless You and thank you for your message.
Sorry, I just posted about wanting to be a doxie mom again. I live in North Dakota, so it would need to be a location close to me.
I would love to adopt a doxie. My beloved doxie passed away a couple of months ago and I would love to be a doxie mom again.
Hi Laura, so very sorry for your loss. That is great that you would like to try to find a rescue. Per my online search, here is what I found that would be ‘close’ to you. I didn’t find many as you can see.
South Dakota Dachshund Rescue:
https://www.dakotadachshundrescue.org/
There may be some more in your surrounding states if you are willing to travel. At the bottom of the post, there is a section called Dachshund rescues that cover multiple states, check out those rescues to see if they would be a good option for you.
I would love to adopt a puppy or young dachshund in Mississippi. Alabama or Tennessee if available

Good luck in your dachshund rescue journey, and thank you for adopting. :)
Are there no dachshund rescues in West Virginia???
Hello Brenda,
That’s a good question. There could be some dachshund rescues in West Virginia, but the ones I found online didn’t have an official looking website for me to record on our list.
Now, fortunately, there are a handful of Dachshund Rescues who are based in another state but serve multiple states, like West Virginia. Here is one of them: http://www.almosthomerescue.org/
If you happen to know of more, please let me know, I will add them onto our list.
Aren’t there any in NY? I live in PA on the NY border and keep searching for one to adopt.
Hello Barbara,
That’s a good question. I just did a search online again, and I don’t see any dachshund specific rescues based in New York State. There are a handful of doxie rescues in PA that also cover other states, like NY.
Check out:
Coast to Coast Dachshund Rescue: http://www.c2cdr.org/
Sophia’s Grace Foundation covers the lower part of NY per their website:
https://www.sophiasgracefoundation.org/
Also, check on the Petfinder App on your phone… they will have dachshunds listed near you, in shelters and in dachshund rescues.
Hi Barbara, I live in Buffalo and we adopted from Little Paws Dachshund Rescue and they transported our dog from Maryland to us.SO if you haven’t found a dog to love and give a good home then please check them out.
