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...
Ozzie beat all the odds with his will to live and love! He developed IVDD at age 10 and was in a wheelchair following back surgery. We were told he would never have use of his back legs. After being rehabilitated at home, Ozzie miraculously walked with his famous swagger again! At age 12 Ozzie had another surgery to remove a cancerous tumor. We were told they were not able to remove it all and our precious boy was given 12-18 months to live. He gave us his unconditional love for another 3 amazing years!
Ozzie went to heaven at age 15, but will live in our hearts forever! ❤️
