Hi, I'm Imogen S.

At Honey River Dachshunds, my girl Honey is the heart of my breeding program. She’s a much-loved member of the family, and her puppies are raised in my home with plenty of love, care, and early socialisation. My goal is to give each puppy the very best start to life and place them in homes where they’ll be treasured…

About the Breeder

A little about us

At Honey River Dachshunds, our dogs are family first. 🐾 We have our beautiful girl Honey, a miniature dachshund, and Milo, our much-loved (and very cheeky!) desexed Jack Russell × Dachshund. We are a small, home-based program focused on raising happy, healthy puppies in a loving environment, with plenty of…

Why we got involved in breeding

I fell in love with dachshunds after bringing Milo, my Jack Russell × Dachshund, into my life. Not long after, Honey joined our family, and her sweet nature inspired me to start a small, ethical breeding program.

Our special touch

My special touch is giving every puppy the same love and attention as my own dogs. They’re raised in the heart of my home, surrounded by everyday sights, sounds, and cuddles, so they grow into confident, well-adjusted companions ready for their forever families.
