Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our puppies are raised in our living room in their own whelping/play area until 6 weeks of age, when they are slowly integrated into our daily routines with the adult dogs. They sleep in our bedroom at night, right by our bed. With 7 adult dachshunds & 4 humans, plus extended family including small children often in…
Health
We provide a balanced diet of high-quality kibble, along with a fresh, freeze and air-dried raw diet & various other fresh ingredients. Our breeding dogs have full breed DNA testing with Canine Health Check in the US. We vaccinate, worm & treat our dogs for parasites on a strict schedule.
Home environment
Our dogs are primarily inside dogs & enjoy snoozing on their beds or the couch for the majority of their days. We also have a large deck for sunbaking & an average sized yard with both concrete & grass aswell as a range of toys & equipment for them to play with together. We start transitioning our puppies to…

We are open to FaceTime calls also, if families would like. We put together a pack for every puppy, to create an easier transition to their new…

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.
