About this shelter

Dachshund Rescue of North America in Woodbridge, VA

Dachshund Rescue of North America (DRNA) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit rescue organization based in Woodbridge, Virginia, in Prince William County, about 15 miles northeast of Alexandria, VA. It is dedicated exclusively to rescuing and rehoming dachshunds, offering programs such as a Senior to Senior initiative and special-needs and bonded-pair placements, and it relies on a network of foster homes and volunteers to care for dogs while they await adoption. Prospective adopters can apply through its established adoption process, and the organization also highlights dogs most in need of extra care alongside its "Happy Tails" success stories. DRNA operates in the same Prince William County area as 10 other animal shelters and rescues.
