Additional Tests
The Chocolate Dox Dachshunds conducts 5 additional tests available for the Miniature Dachshund.
Physical Test
This is a type of hypothyroidism which can occur in any breed and can be caused by many different things. It is more common in some breeds compared to others, so in these breeds it is recommended that breeding dogs have a blood test to show they have normal thyroid levels at the time of breeding.
Genetic Test
Mucopolysaccharidosis is a genetic lysosomal storage disease that can cause various problems including stunted growth and bone deformities. There are a few different variants of this disease that have been identified in different breeds. For many breeds there are DNA tests available to identify if a breeding dog is carrying the condition.
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.

About the Breeder
A little about us
As a busy mum of five and a long-time Dachshund owner of 13 years, my love for this wonderful breed runs deep. What started as a passion quickly grew into years of learning, researching, and understanding the importance of ethical breeding before I made the decision to begin breeding myself.
Why we got involved in breeding
With 13 years of experience owning and loving Dachshunds, I have developed a genuine passion for this remarkable breed. Before establishing my breeding program, I invested years in education and research, ensuring a strong foundation in ethical and responsible breeding practices.
Our special touch
My special touch comes from raising every puppy right in our home, surrounded by the love and activity of our family. Each puppy is treated as one of our own pets, receiving daily affection, care, and early socialisation to help them grow into confident, well-adjusted companions ready to become a cherished member of…
