Our missions statement: Little Paws Dachshund Rescue is a non-profit animal rescue that specializes in finding permanent homes for dachshunds. It is LPDRs goal to identify abandoned, mistreated, or homeless dogs and oversee their treatment and wellbeing while working to find loving owners for those in our care. We strive to make the lives of all dogs better through action, advocacy, awareness and education.
Our board of directors is comprised of 8 individuals with varied rescue experience and experience in non-profits. We do what we do for the love of dachshunds. We all adore the breed - their needs and their quirks. Our goal is to change the life of a dachshund "four paws at a time".
All potential adopters will go through the application process which includes a paper/computer application, 3 personal references, a veterinary reference, and home visit. Post adoption - we follow up at the one week mark to ensure a true fit for the dog/family then again at one month for a "happy tail" and then yearly.
