One by one, until there are none!

This is Freckles.   Freckles was dumped at Animal Control when he lost use of his back end, due to caninie degenerative disc disease. He was a happy, sweet boy, but he did not have use of his back legs; nor did he have bowel or bladder control. Because he was such an awesome little dog, with a huge personality, GCDR wanted to give him a chance. The problem is that GCDR is a very, very small organization who does not have the funds available to provide back surgery, which easily costs upwards of $2500.00. We raised enough funds to cover 'exploratory' surgery to see if he could be helped. It was determined that his injury was not repairable. Freckles lost his battle on the operating table. Because of this, we are starting a "Freckles Fund" to help with future back surgeries. Please, become a P.A.L. in Freckles' name.

Gulf Coast Dachshund Rescue is an incorporated organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of dachshunds across the Gulf Coast.

GCDR was founded in July, 2006 with the goal of rescuing dachshunds from difficult situations, rehabilitating them, and finding loving permanent homes for each one.

GCDR strives to educate the general public about the importance of spaying and neutering, as well as responsible pet ownership.

It is extremely important, as well, to educate potential dachshund owners about  the dachshund standard and personality, to be certain no dachshund ends up in rescue, on the street, or worse, just for being a dachshund.
