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...
Hi my name is Ernie and my Momma rescued me off of Craigslist 12 years ago. I am a tri colored long haired piebald dachshund and that makes me very special. I am now and onliest dog because Cinnamon, Baron and Chad who were also rescued by Momma have gone to the rainbow bridge. So now it is just me and the cat Pretty Girl. I used to be a therapy dog but now Momma and I just stay-at-home watch TV and occasionally I let the cat sleep next to me. I'll give her a kiss sometimes and sometimes she gives me one. I like to go for walks in the neighborhood but not too far because I'm getting old and so is Momma but if there's something going on outside that I think is interesting or if there are workers
out there who I think need a supervisor I know that I
must go outside and do my job.
