We list 8 rescue groups for the Dachshund in 7 states: Arizona, Kansas, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey and Texas. Many of them place dogs in neighboring states too, so call the closest one even if it is not in yours.
How much does it cost to adopt a Dachshund?
Each rescue sets its own adoption fee, which normally covers vaccines, a microchip and spaying or neutering. For comparison, a Dachshund puppy from a breeder typically costs $1,850.
Are there Dachshund dogs in general shelters?
Yes. Most purebred dogs given up by their owners end up in general animal shelters, not in breed rescues. Ask the shelters near you and tell them the breed you want.
