I'm Crystal S., the breeder behind Crystal’s Miniature Dachshunds located in San Antonio, TX. Our dogs health is most important to us.
We make sure puppies meet all important milestones before going to their new homes. We look for families that will be the perfect match for them.
Q. & A. with Crystal
Why did you start breeding?
I got my first dachshund from my uncle as a high school graduation gift. She’s been with me even into my college graduation. I am completely in love with the breed and how they look and act.
What makes your program special?
I do have AKC registered dogs, but I always try to make sure they are good health and temperament. They are never double merle pairings. I do get puppies checked by a licensed veterinarian. I make sure everyone is vaccinated, dewormed, and in good health before they leave my care. I will take back any unwanted puppy from my programs, so it doesn’t end up in a shelter.
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 longhaired and smooth 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, red, fawn (isabella), brindle, fawn (isabella) and tan, chocolate and tan, blue and tan, black and tan, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We could not be happier with our sweet puppy. Crystal did an excellent job preparing her for her new home. She is well adjusted and learning every day, sleeping through the night, eating, playing and bonding with all members of the family. She has been a joy to us all. The communication with Crystal through GoodDog.com was great and we would recommend Crystal and GoodDog to anyone looking for a wonderful adoption experience. Thank you

Crystal was awesome, friendly and professional. I did not have any issues, and she responded quickly with any questions I had. I would recommend or reach back out to her if I am ever in the need for another baby. My pup named Penny is having a blast with her new siblings Pickles and Peanut.
