Meet the breeder

I'm Amy G., the breeder behind Dachshund Darlins located in Opelika, AL. Our love for our dogs pushed us to begin breeding. We love to see the results of our efforts in the sweet, happy, and healthy puppies that we’re able to share with others. All of our puppies are raised in our home and socialized with children, cats and other pets. What do Dachshunds love the most? Dachshunds are loyal to their people. They love to snuggle with you and bring lots of joy to your life! If you love floppy ears, little legs, and big personalities then you will love to have a dachshund complete you're life. They are like lays potato chips; you can't have just one! Lol.

    Five star experience working with Amy. Start to finish. She even accommodated our delay in picking up Hazel due to an unexpected medical issue. Hazel is a great addition to our family and a lot of fun watching her play and do all things puppy. She loves to sleep up high, especially a human neck🤣. She loves going for an evening golf cart ride. Thank you Amy! And Good Dog.

    Amy has been excellent about sending weekly updates. My little Scarlett is such a beautiful girl. I love watching the updates on all the puppies, and Amy is so great about timely responses to questions, as well.

    I loved working with Amy! she helped us welcome adorable Bingo into our lives! She was really helpful providing us with full information and details & quickly answering any question we had. She stayed in touch & was really nice. Getting our bingo was an experience, driving far from home and amy being so understanding & patient no matter the time of how late we might’ve gotten to her & bingo, we are thankful for the little bundle of happiness that Amy was able to help us welcome. Bingo has been a real sweetheart and adapted quickly to our other fur baby and has been really happy, healthy & lovable since day one, it was a pleasure meeting Amy!

    Amy was so genuine and was very patient with me while I worked with her to get my baby Scooby. I had a wonderful experience and I could tell she really cared about him and wanted him to go to a good home! She wants the best for her doggos and I enjoyed every minute.
