Thanks for your support at the picnic. It was a perfect day and the new park was much better than the old one. It was great to see so many happy dachshunds. Here's to another year of finding homes for homeless dachshunds. We couldn't do it without you.

GO TEAM WIENER!!

  The 2010 Rescue Me calendars are here! They are 14 months this year and are available for a $16.00 donation, plus $2 shipping (pickup from North York available).

 One of our foster dogs (Olivia) just spent TWO WEEKS at the vet clinic fighting off an infection. You know how much your 20 minute appointment at the vet costs. You might even know what an overnight at emergency costs.  Imagine the bill for two weeks of care and diagnostic tests. This year's sales will go to poor Olivia's vet bills. We're not all spays, neuters, and vaccinations - though we do a lot of those. Sometimes the foster dogs get sick and we need to do what it takes to get them better.

 Every year the dachshund month is cute, but I have to say that this year the dogs are extra-cute. What a great mix of colours, sizes, and 'styles', though we do need a wire to come out to a photo shoot.

That gorgeous red longhair with the bling staring off so intelligently into the distance - I bet she has an amazing owner. Ok, ok, that's my girl, Robin. She joined the rescue after her owner passed away and has the mixed blessing of living with me. Good because she is spoiled rotten, but she also has to earn her kibble by representing CDR at our shows and events. Getting all that loving is hard work!

Canadian Dachshund Rescue (CDR) was founded in 2001 by the Canadian members of US Dachshund rescues. We felt there was the need for a dachshund rescue here, but we didn't know how great that need was. Unfortunately, there is no shortage of dachshunds needing new homes and we can only rescue as many dogs as we have foster homes to keep them in and dollars to pay the vet bills. CDR has helped over 700 dachshunds and dachshund mixes find forever homes. With your help we will save many more. Consider fostering, volunteering, or donating to help dachshunds in need.

You can donate online to Canadian Dachshund Rescue through the umbrella rescue fundraising registered charity group, K9 Rescue Me. You will get a tax receipt for donations over $25.
