I'm Suzanne L., the breeder behind Arizona Desert Gold Dachshunds located in Phoenix, AZ. Both parents are AKC Champion Bloodlines with great temperaments. They make great pets for families with children. Puppies will majority be wire haired when grown with either white/spotted like the dad or brown/red like the mom. We will find out as they get older.

Suzanne partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 6 weeks old.
“The best buyers show stable lifestyle, financial readiness, breed knowledge, long-term commitment, and transparent communication. The worst buyers show impulse behavior, unstable living situations, poor pet history, or avoidance of questions. By asking so basic questions as: Prior dog ownership (breeds, duration, outcomes) Daily schedule and who will care for the puppy Other pets in the home and their behavior Housing type (rent/own), pet policies, fencing Plans for training, socialization, and exercise Long-term expectations for the breed History of pet surrenders (major red flag)”

“Health Guaranteed. Full money back refund if after a vet. examination there is found to be a serious life threating health issue. A 500.00 deposit is required to reserve the puppy of your choice.”
