About the Breeder
A little about us
Animals have always been my passion, growing up on farms in the uk we used to have working dogs, so learnt from a very young age about breeding. We moved to Australia in 2009. It took us a little while to find our perfect home, but 12yrs ago we found it in the scenic Rim. We are lucky to have room for horses, goats…
Why we got involved in breeding
We started breeding Groodles in 2010 and retired our girl Bali in 2013. Our son George had wanted a mini dachshund for years and when he was 10 we got him Dudley. Well that was it - the whole family was hooked!
Our special touch
We are a whole family of dachshund lovers and would give our place up on the sofa for our dogs, we truly love them. RPBA 5399.
