She has had no problem with the cats and is enjoying playing and learning from the male and female dachshunds. Skylar will need a small, young dog in the home to continue learning doggie skills. If kept on a schedule, house training is progressing well, and she will use a doggie door. Skylar is now walking on a leash and loves her walks. Skylar is still a bit shy, and she will take a little time to get comfortable with you. But when she does, she will be your little buddy and constant companion. I know she would even love to sleep in the big bed with you. She is such a sweet girl!!<br/><br/>BIO: Skylar is a mere slip of a girl at only 7.76 pounds! Skylar has not been well socialized, so whoever adopts her must have the patience to bring her out of her shell. She may never be completely comfortable around strangers. After she gets comfortable in your home, she is a real sweetheart. Skylar would be a great little snuggler... settle in on the couch together and catch a movie or just cuddle.<br/><br/>Understand again, she will need YOU to teach her how to be a pet and not be afraid of the unknown. Are you up to the challenge?<br/><br/>Little Skylar truly is a sweet girl and does great with other dogs her size. However, no big dogs in the adoptive home, please; they would frighten her.<br/><br/>Our must-haves for precious Skylar include:<br/> - A fenced yard<br/> - Another adult, small, well-socialized dog for her to learn from<br/> - Someone who can be home more often than not, and most importantly, be patient and show her that there is nothing to be afraid of, and help her to be a friendly pet<br/> - Sorry, no apartments, high-rises, or condos because dachshunds do bark<br/><br/>If you feel this is something you are willing to undertake, please visit our website and complete our online adoption application today.<br/><br/> ============== Information for All Dogs/Adopters ==============<br/><br/>AADR does not recommend dachshunds for families with children under 5, or families planning to have children during the dog's lifetime. Dachshunds are often not patient with little kids, and kids can accidentally hurt a dachshund’s back or get bitten.<br/><br/>If you have questions about this dog, please feel free to contact the foster home at the email address listed on the bio form. They have the most up-to-date information concerning the dog and would be happy to answer any questions about the animal. <br/><br/>We cannot adopt into CT, RI, NH, ME, or MA due to strict laws regarding importation of dogs into those states. If you have any issue with this, you will need to take this up with your legislatures.<br/><br/>To understand the adoption process through AADR, please review the Adoption Information on our home page. Transportation options are outlined on that page in Step 3.<br/><br/>Click this link to apply: https://www.allamericandachshundrescue.org/apply, it will take you to the application form.<br/><br/>Please don't let the distance stand in your way of finding your newest best friend. We have volunteers who will help your "new friend" get up and down the East Coast or Midwest. We just can't get them from one coast to the other. Please look for dogs on your coast.
