Home environment

They have their own room inside the house, where their whelping bed is kept, providing a safe and comfortable environment. When the weather is nice, we let the puppies out into the backyard…

About the Breeder

A little about us

Our dogs are first and foremost part of our family (furry humans I like to call them) and are…

Why we got involved in breeding

I fell in love with the breed and truly believe everyone deserves a Dachshund in their life. Our aim is to breed healthy, well socialised dogs that are clear of all genetic disease so they can make another family as happy as ours have made us.

A lot of breeders will tell you that the decision on which breeder you choose is…
