Hi, there!  My name is Dudley and I am senior doxie. I was rescued by DARE when I was 10 years old. My foster mom became my forever mom, which happens alot with us old folks, but sometimes there are special people out there who see the joy we can bring and they take us home to be theirs forever. Many people do not realize that dachshunds can live 16 - 20 years, if well cared for. So I have a lots of life left in me!
I would like to introduce you to the DARE senior doxies and "forever fosters". A "forever foster" is a dachshund that is too old or too sick to be adopted but they are not yet ready to go to the rainbow bridge. DARE is committed to give them the best care possible until it is their time to "shuffle off this mortal coil". You can open your heart and your home to one of my senior friends and you will never regret it or you can be a "Special Buddy" to one of them. A "Special Buddy" helps DARE with the cost of caring for these special "puppies".

means the dog has special needs.

Make a donation to DARE It can cost up to $7,000 to prepare just one rescued dog for adoption depending on the health of the dachshund when he/she comes to DARE. Not all require surgery, but many do and many more require heartworm treatment before they can be adopted. We depend on your generosity to cover our expenses and the expense of foster care until these wonderful dogs can find a forever home.
