Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our puppies are raised in our home & their parents are much loved members of our family. Puppies are well socialised, living with 7 adult dachshunds, 2 adults and 3 children. Puppies are well exposed to the noises of everyday living, along with lots of toys! Toilet training begins prior to our puppies leaving…
Health
Our puppies are raised on a healthy diet of quality kibble as well as fresh foods. They are regularly wormed & come vet checked with their first vaccination and microchip. Our breeding dogs have full breed DNA testing with Orivet Australia, which we are happy to provide on request.
Home environment
We live in a rural area in Western QLD, which allows our dogs to have plenty of room to run & play. We have a Whelping room, which the pups predominantly spend their early days in. The puppies are transitioned to outside play around 4 weeks of age to become familiar with the outside world.
Included with our puppies
When our puppies go to their forever homes, we send them with a welcome puppy pack. Included in this is quality kibble, their favourite toy and other items to make the transition easier. We can usually assist with delivery of pups between Taroom and Brisbane, with airport drop offs occurring regularly. Assistance…
