Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Puppies are raised as part of the family, as I only have small 3 bitches that I breed and put all my time into, they are extremely well looked after and raised on a farm. Pups are used to cats, chickens and other farm yard animals; and receive frequent interaction from the family. Puppies are picked up, cuddled and…
Health
Breeding dogs are DNA tested and owners will be given a copy of the breeding dogs' genetic health testing. Puppies are checked by our vet at 6 weeks old, where they are vaccinated, microchipped and wormed.
Home environment
We are located near Tamworth, where our pups are raised in the house with our family in a secure environment with fencing outside. Our puppies have the run of the house, frequently running around inside as well as outside in our backyard (when old enough).

Additional Tests
Rubystud Miniature Dachshunds conducts 3 additional tests available for the Miniature Dachshund.
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.
