Additional Tests
Doxie Squad Dachshunds 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.

Why we got involved in breeding
I have loved dachshunds since a child and also coming from a farming family where reproduction is vital to our longevity, I feel like breeding is in my blood a bit. I just swapped cows, horses and pigs for dogs. After my first litter, I was hooked. It has been the most rewarding, terrifying, stressful and…
Our special touch
I believe I bring an element of veterinary knowledge to my breeding program as well as an eye for good dogs. I'm open always to learning everything I can and each litter I learn more and more. I breed dachshunds that are structurally sound and healthy, but I'm also transparent and not afraid to talk about when…
