Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our puppies are raised in our busy family home alongside our young children and other dogs, so they are naturally exposed to everyday household life from the very beginning. They are handled daily and introduced to a variety of sights, sounds and experiences to help build confident, well-adjusted temperaments. As…
Health
The health and wellbeing of our dogs is extremely important to us. All of our breeding dogs come from carefully selected lines and are DNA tested to ensure we are producing healthy puppies and reducing the risk of inherited conditions. Our puppies are raised in a clean, safe environment and receive the best care…
Home environment
Our dachshunds are raised on our rural property where they enjoy plenty of space, fresh air and enrichment. Our dogs spend their days exploring the yard, playing, and enjoying the relaxed country lifestyle alongside our family. Puppies are born and raised in our home where they are closely monitored and cared for…

Additional Tests

- 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.
