Meet the breeder

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.

Q. & A. with Suzanne

  • Why did you start breeding?

    love for the breed, and a strong desire to share that love with anyone who loves and appreciates Dachshunds as much as we do!
  • What makes your program special?

    Puppies have been given significant human interaction and have daily attention and companionship. So their transition to their forever home will be smooth and comfortable. All vaccines and deworming will be done before puppies go to their new home. Make sure to do research on this breed, and how it might fit your lifestyle and family. Puppies come with health guarantee.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have wirehaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include sable and piebald. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
