About Us

Founded in 1984 by Bucks County, PA and New Jersey dachshund lovers, DRBC is a 501[c][3] nonprofit organization supported completely by donations. Our all-volunteer organization works tirelessly to provide an experience for both the adopter and adoptee that helps guarantee a perfect match.

Dachshund Rescue of Bucks County is based in Bucks County, PA.

DRBC's goal is to save abandoned, owner turn-ins, neglected or stray Dachshunds and Dachshund mixes. DRBC does not just place needy Dachshunds; we specialize in matches of the heart. All DRBC dogs with long-term medical issues are given life-long sanctuary as permanent members of one of our foster homes. Additionally, DRBC supports the long-term sponsorship of senior dachshunds.

DRBC prides itself as an organization on the level of medical care provided and in it's role as a medical resource for the dachshund breed. Community education is at the forefront of the DRBC mission.

We endeavor to obtain all Dachshunds in animal shelters thus avoiding euthanasia. We also aid Dachshunds owners in recovering lost or stolen pets.

Our rescue program, which has been in existence for almost 40 years, serves the Dachshund Rescue needs of Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, New York and New Jersey.
