Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
With over five years of livestock breeding experience, I learned the importance of genetics, health, and responsible care. When my family welcomed our first Miniature Dachshund, Rosie Posie, we fell in love. Inspired by her joy, we began raising healthy, happy, well-socialized dachshunds for families to love. We are also active in community events and shows!
What makes your program special?
What makes us special is the heart behind our program. We prioritize health and temperament, with fully health-tested, carefully paired dogs to better the breed. Raised on our Tennessee acreage with our children and pets, our puppies are socialized, confident, and cherished from the very start.
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 longhaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include piebald, cream, red, black, chocolate, chocolate and tan, chocolate and cream, black and tan, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Good level
B+B Co Miniature Dachshunds reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Dachshunds.
Vet Wellness Exam
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
