Dachshund Rescue of North America says that Seniors are the neediest group of Dachshunds, and to honor them, DRNA is waiving their adoption fee for the entire month of June!
Check out DRNA's top ten reasons to adopt a senior:
1.Adopting a senior dog, saves a life. "Blessed is the person who has earned the love of an old dog". -Sydney Jeanne Seward
2.Senior dogs love to sleep the day away and enjoy a nice walk, but the best part of their day is being with you.
3.When you rescue a senior dog, you have a best friend forever.
4.Senior dogs reward your care with everlasting devotion. Nothing matches the love of a senior dog for his/her rescuer.
5.Senior dogs have learned many of the life's lessons. They know that shoes are for walking and toys are for chewing.
6.Senior dogs know that the outdoors is for potty and the house is for relaxing. Your carpet will last longer with senior dogs.
7.Senior dogs can learn new tricks and make excellent therapy dogs.
8.Senior dogs often fit into your home with ease. They find the best spot in the house and claim it for their own, but they will share it with you too.
9.Senior dogs make great companions for anyone, especially senior people.
10.Seniors don't have a chance in shelters and are the first to be euthanized to make room for the younger dogs.

My dachshund Tobi entered my life when he was 10. Now, he's 12, alive and kicking, my very best friend. He educated my mom's puppy and he's relaxed with other dogs. I can just recommend looking for an older dog. He is the four-legged love of my life.
