Health
The health and wellbeing of our dogs and puppies is our highest priority. Our breeding dogs are carefully selected for their health, temperament, and quality, with health testing completed. Puppies receive health checks, are vaccinated, microchipped, wormed routinely, and raised on premium nutrition to support…
Home environment
We are a family of 6 with four children ranging from 2 to 13 years of age, living on 20 acres in Mooliabeenee, WA. Our dogs are cherished members of our family and sleep either with us or our children, while also being crate trained for when needed. Our puppies begin life in a whelping box alongside their mum before…

Additional Tests
Bernie's Dachshund Delights conducts 4 additional tests available for the Miniature Dachshund.
- Genetic Test
Mucopolysaccharidosis is a genetic lysosomal storage disease that can cause various problems including stunted growth and bone deformities. There are a few different variants of this disease that have been identified in different breeds. For many breeds there are DNA tests available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying the condition.
- Genetic Test
Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL) is a neurodegenerative disorder found in many breeds of dog. 7 varieties have been identified so far, affecting different breeds. There are DNA tests for each type, to identify whether a breeding dog might be carrying this condition.
- Genetic Test
Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), also known as ‘brittle bone disease’, is an inherited disease in both humans and animals, causing bone fragility and fracturing. As it is a genetic disease, breeding parents can be tested to ensure it is not passed onto their puppies.
- Genetic Test
Sarcoglycan Deficient Muscular Dystrophy (SDMD) is a genetic disease causing a stiff gait, exercise intolerance and difficulty swallowing in young Miniature Dachshunds. There is now a DNA test available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying this disease.
