Meet the breeder

I'm Lauren W., the breeder behind Bear Creek located in Duncanville, AL. We are a family breeder dedicated to raising healthy, well-tempered Dachshunds. Our puppies are lovingly raised in our home, with lifelong support for every family. Each puppy is given the very best start in life with plenty of love, proper nutrition, and excellent veterinary care.

Q. & A. with Lauren

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I began breeding because of my family’s love for Dachshunds. What started with my mom and grandparents has grown into a passion I now share with my mom and sisters.

  • What makes your program special?

    What makes my breeding program special is that it’s a true family venture — one that allows me to carry on a legacy started years before me.

  • 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 include wirehaired, smooth, and longhaired coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include piebald, cream, chocolate, fawn (isabella) and tan, fawn (isabella) and cream, blue and cream, blue and tan, black and tan, black and cream, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
