About Us
Nebraska Dachshund Rescue was formed in the fall of 2007 by several dachshund lovers who were part of a dachshund-only play group. The group would be informed about dachshunds in kill-shelters, dachshunds being surrendered by families, dachshunds that were 'free' on craigslist, dachshunds retiring from puppy mills, etc... There was not a dachshund breed-specific local rescue group to help find homes for some wonderful little dogs who deserved a second chance at life.

• Educating owners and public on responsible pet ownership.

• Finding a forever home to dachshunds and any animal in need.

• Rescuing and socializing abandoned, neglected, abused, orphaned and/or surrendered dachshunds and dachshund mixes by providing temporary safe shelter and medical/dental treatments as needed.

• Procuring temporary foster homes and permanent new homes for rescued dachshunds that will provide a safe and nurturing home environment.

• Ensuring no dachshund shall be adopted for the purposes of breeding or scientific/medical experimentation.

• Providing education to the public on the dachshund breed, puppy mills, and responsible pet guardianship including, but not limited to, humane animal care and spay/neuter practices.

• Displaying courtesy, respect and fellowship toward all volunteers in appreciation of services and support rendered to dachshund rescue and to promoting enhanced teamwork among all rescuers.


NDR Mission:

• To help find dachshunds in need of a forever home

• To educate the public on the option of rescue over buying from a pet store.

• And most important, responsible pet ownership which includes training, microchipping and spay or neuter.

Eli - NDR's Inspiration Eli is living on top of the world right now. He goes for walks everyday and also attends regular play groups. He was picked up as a stray at an Iowa shelter. The shelter was able to identify the owners. The owners were called and assured the shelter they would be in to pick him up. They never showed up for their boy. After three days, he was made available for adoption. Due to space constraints, this shelter is unable to keep their animals very long...which is a nice way of saying they will be killed after three days. Luckily, a kind lady from an all breed rescue bailed him out and asked an acquaintance to foster him. After finding no dachshund rescue in Omaha or the state of Nebraska, Eli inspired Cheryl Wilson to start a dachshund-specific rescue group to help other dachshunds in need. Nebraska Dachshund Rescue was born. The rescue has been operating since Oct of 2007 and has helped HUNDREDS of other dachshunds find their forever homes! Thank you Eli!
