Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
We use the Breeders Bootcamp socialisation program that starts with early neurological stimulation and early scent introduction. We continue this as the puppies grow with age appropriate introductions of sounds and household items. Our pups are raised in a home with young children and routinely socialised with other…
Health
Health of the parents is essential. Our dogs are picked from breeding stock based on temperament, confirmation and DNA testing results. Our dogs are always up to date on vaccinations and dewormers. Keeping the parents healthy ensures the puppies have the best start to life - even in utero. After the pups are born,…
Home environment
The puppies are born in a whelping box in my bedroom. Yes, right in my room where they are next to me and never left alone at night. I also have a camera on them to monitor them 24/7. The parent dogs are my pets first, so they live in our home and around us, or in the homes of my guardian families. Once the pups are…
Included with our puppies
Our puppies come with the appropriate vaccinations. The puppies are microchipped and regularly dewormed. They are raised in our home and around us using the Breeders Bootcamp socialisation method to ensure beautiful temperaments as they grow. We keep our puppies until 10 weeks old to ensure that they are well…

A little about us
I got my first dachshund for my 5th birthday and I've been hooked ever since. I even received my Bachelors degree in Veterinary Science from the University of Arizona. I'm completely obsessed with this amazing breed and love being able to share that with new families that we meet! Ethical breeding practices and the…
Why we got involved in breeding
My parents supported me to breed my first litter when I was 8 years old. I continued breeding and showing dachshunds while growing up in the USA. I then got into rescuing and fostering dachshunds until moving to Australia in 2013. Once my old dachshund, that I brought from the USA, passed away I really struggled to…
Our special touch
I am truly passionate about (albeit obsessed with) dachshunds. I get to know my puppies very well and have a knack for matching them perfectly with their forever homes. I match my puppies primarily on temperament. I like to know as much as possible about the forever homes to ensure that they get a puppy that just…
