Hello All-

As you can see there is a lot going on right now.  We are planning a garage sale which is going to be held on February 6th (weather permitting) and are trying to get another adoption days event scheduled for March!  We are also planning on some other future pet related events as well as trying to get a fundraiser picnic/get together planned!

We also have several of our former rescue dachshunds who are entered in yearly photo contests!  Some of these contests need voting from the public!  So instead of listing them all on this page, we decided to give the contests that need votes from you it's own page!

Photo Contests-We Need Your Votes!!!

Have you Hugged or Kissed Your Dachshund Today?

All these dachshunds have found happy forever homes! Do you have a picture of you hugging or kissing your dachshund or your dachshund hugging/kissing you, send it to Dawnie to have it added to the bunch!  This batch of pictures stays up all year round on this home page, I just move it, when relative holidays come up!  If you have a picture of your dog in a cute holiday outfit and you would like to see it on the site, email it to Dawnie!

Please contact Chris or Dawnie with questions.

An Important Message from Chris, President of Dachshund Haven of Garden Grove Rescue and Sanctuary:

Through dachshund rescue we have recently seen a rash of backyard breeders dumping their puppies in shelters. This is not just about dachshunds, it's all breeds. Before you choose to overburden the shelters, please attempt to contact a rescue about taking these little ones.
By dumping them at the shelter, you are risking their lives to illness. Their immune systems can't fight off the kennel cough, parvo, and various other illnesses.
Again, if you truly care for your pets, contact a rescue, BEFORE you turn your pets over to a shelter.  You would be amazed how many rescues there are, ready and willing to help.

In regards to turning over a dog to Dachshund Haven:

While we would like to be able to take in every dachshund who needs rescue, we are not able to do so.  This is not a facility, it is our home and for that reason, we must limit ourselves to the number of dogs coming into rescue at one time.  As they are adopted, we then have room for more.  Please do not make the statement that "if you don't take my dog immediately, I'll be forced to dump him/her in the shelter".

It has been a very busy/crazy year for rescue.  Between the economy and breeders shutting down, we have been overwhelmed at times. 

If you are looking to surrender your dachshund, please contact Chris give the age and gender.  Whether or not they have been spayed/neutered, and if they are up to date on their vaccinations.  Also, it would be helpful if you would send a picture of the dog in question.  As much as we would like to "save" them all, it's just not possible for us at this time.

 

 

A NOTE TO ALL BREEDERS, OWNERS, RESCUERS, SHELTERS ETC:  WE ARE SENDING THIS NOTICE OUT TO REGARDING ALL SPECIAL NEEDS DOGS OR PUPPIES:  THIS INCLUDES ALL DOUBLE DAPPLES, ANY DOGS WITH ANY SICKNESS, LEG ISSUES, MEDICINE OR MEDICAL ISSUES ETC...PLEASE CONTACT CHRIS AT CEEJAYS03@AOL.COM BEFORE YOU PUT THESE LITTLE GUYS DOWN OR EUTHANIZE THEM...WE ARE WILLING TO TAKE THESE DOGS AND WORK WITH THEM.  NINE TIMES OUT OF TEN THEY CAN HAVE A GOOD QUALITY OF LIFE.  AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE ALL CAN BE DONE FOR THEM TO HELP PROLONG THEM AND GIVE THEM A HAPPY AND HEALTHY QUALITY OF LIFE

 

 

A quick note about animals

and "Craig's List"

Lately we have been browsing the internet and have found, a unbelievable amount of dog's, both pure bred dogs and mutt's online offering them either free or for a nominal fee to a "good home".    Although we respect everyone's rights to do with your animals what you will, we would ask people if you know anyone who is offering a dog online for free to try to talk them out of it or ask them to be careful when doing this and to ask for a vet reference that you can check out before turning the dog(s) over first. 

 We live in a day and age of animal testing, where do you think these people get their animals?  We also live in a time of "dog fighting" as an illegal sport.  How do you think they get "bait" dogs.   Wouldn't you hate to find out that you animal has been a victim of illegal fights or experiments. 

If you love your animal and want what is best for it, then there are a few things you can do prior to turning over a dog. The number one thing to do is for the person turning over the dog to ask for a vet reference. A vet's office that the person who will be taking custody of the dog will use for their veterinarian purposes for that dog.  Most of the time, a person who is a dog or animal person, will have a prior vet, even if it has been a while, they will have been established somewhere.    All it takes is one telephone call to that vet's office and your answers will leave you feeling better about handing your dog over. 

 

 Thank you-

This Website is built and run by Dachshund Haven of Garden Grove, Rescue and Sanctuary.   
 By no means, do we claim to be experts on dachshunds or the breed.
Anything stated here about puppy mill's, over breeders etc,  is opinion only.  We do however, know a lot about dachshunds due to the constant care and  constant exposure to these issues.
Our only hope by this website is to give people a overview of what the dachshund breed is and to show the ones that are available and ready for forever homes while trying to inform people of situations that occurring in society.
