    If you look on www.petfinder.org a lone there are 2414 Dachshunds and Dachshund Mixes up for adoption. Rare? I think not.

    The only Dachshunds I've ever met have been Black and Tan or all Red.
    sly is right.. lol.. I never see too many black and tan long haired at shows, but plenty in the short coats.

    I am trying, I am trying!

    I don't know. I just feel that I need to stick up for those who can't stick up for themselves!

    I hope she contacts a rescue but not likely, eh?

    Perhaps the woman actually meant "hard to find" ... which may very well be true in her area. We all make mistakes with wording things.

    Dachshunds are incredibly popular in Oregon. In Portlands metro area alone they have three breeders (one of which looks pretty reputable!), many rescues (being around a highly activist area), etc. Plus, there is petfinder. There are also the local ads and the ads at petsmart, etc. They're not hard to find. Heh.

    Being from Oregon myself, and have previously looked for a Dachshund, this is all information that I've learned.
