86. Dachshund Rescue

On May 5th Southern States Dachshund Rescue will be holding their 3rd Annual Dachshund Derby Picnic event for dachshunds and their owners. It will be held at Henry Horton State Park, and they’ll be having nine contests including ‘Oldest Dachshund’ ‘Shortest Legs’ ‘Longest Ears’, best costume and of course racing.

It sounds a lot of fun, and you’ll be helping a very worthwhile cause. For more details go here: http://www.ssdr.org/picnic3.html

Southern States Dachshund Rescue also have a quarterly newsletter that you can sign up for from their home page. And if you are able to adopt or foster a dachshund, they have a form you can fill in too.

85. Dachshund Underground Railroad

For rescue dachshunds who find homes in remote places, a group of dachshund lovers have founded this organization of volunteers to help out. I think this is a fabulous idea, and the title is brilliant too!

If you would like to be a volunteer, sign up at:

If you arte unable to be a volunteer driver, you can help out in other ways, such as buying form their cafepress store, or opening your own store and naming DUR as the referrer.
