Dachshund Adoption Rescue and Education, Inc. (DARE) views its mission as increasing public awareness against animal cruelty and overpopulation while rescuing and re-homing displaced and unwanted dachshunds and dachshund mix dogs primarily throughout the North Central region of the state of Florida, in the Continental Unites States.
We do this by:- 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.

A little about me...
Juanita was found as a stray in Lake City, Florida. She was flea ridden, skinny, and missing large patches of fur. She was also blind in her left eye, a condition that could not be medically fixed. She became a Dare foster dog and was in care for over three years but nobody applied to adopt her. the foster mom did her DNA and she is a true Chiweenie. Juanita is independent and inordinately stubborn but that is her charm. She just likes to do things her way. Last Christmas she was adopted by her foster family. A true foster fail. We love you Juanita!
