Meet the breeder

I'm Lisa S., the breeder behind Dare Devil Dachshunds located in Kitty Hawk, NC. Dachshund Obsessed is what we are :) Devoted to providing healthy puppies by responsibly growing this incredible breed. We adhere to several protocols to ensure this. It’s our top priority to make sure each of our puppy families welcomes a happy and healthy new family member into their homes!

Q. & A. with Lisa

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My first dachshund of my very own was a Blue and Tan Longhair Dachshund, Wolfie ❤️ He was the most precious, quirky, loyal boy...and that boy is who we attribute the beginning of our program to. Our very first dare devil considering his fun hunting groundhogs that would try to eat my garden. After a number of years, I started researching genetics and breeding and here we are now 20+ years later.

  • What makes your program special?

    We ensure that every pup goes to a wonderful forever home by carefully evaluating every adopter to ensure Dare Devil Dachshunds go to well loved homes! We also test our dogs to make sure they have great temperaments, conformation and structure, and that they are free of any genetic diseases. All pups are well socialized. They are accustomed to all the normal household activities too!

  • 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, chocolate 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.

    Lisa and Chad were wonderful to work with. They were so responsive and provided updates all the time until the day I picked up my puppy. They answered any and all questions I had very quickly and were very informative! I love how I received in depth genetic testing of my puppy before I even got him to ease any concerns and educate me further about his health. Teddy (formerly Latte) has been a great addition to our family. He is kind, friendly, and above all playful. He is definitely a dare devil! If we decide to get another dachshund in the future, I will definitely be using Lisa and Chad and would recommend the entire experience!

    From the moment little Noodle trotted into my life, I knew she was something special. She’s playful, curious, and endlessly affectionate — the perfect mix of sass and sweetness that makes every day brighter. Watching her discover the world has been such a joy; she’s full of personality and already runs the house like she owns it! Working with Daredevil Dachshunds was an incredible experience. They are so knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. I could tell right away how much love and attention goes into raising each puppy. Every detail — from updates and photos to health information and transition tips — showed how dedicated they are to both their pups and their new families. Bringing Noodle home was seamless, and it’s clear she came from a wonderful start. I’m so grateful to them for helping me find my perfect little companion. Noodle has brought so much happiness into my home — I truly can’t imagine life without her now!

    Lisa and Chad are outstanding to work with! They were quick to respond and they graciously answered all of my MANY questions. The love they have for their dogs and the breed in general, is obvious and so heartwarming! I haven't had experience in dealing with breeders, but Lisa and Chad are much more than people to go to for a sweet puppy! They truly are loving fur-parents that care not only about their fur-family but also the forever-homes their babies go to! I am so blessed to have traveled this journey in my search of finding my precious "Lady Mia" with them as my comforting and reassuring guide! Thank you so very much Lisa and Chad, God bless you both!

    Lisa and her husband were fantastic to work with! They made this process so seamless and always kept me up to date with day to day happenings with my puppy. Kaia is the sweetest and smartest dog I’ve ever had. She has quickly stolen our hearts and become my best friend. She’s a wonderful companion and keeps us laughing daily. When we decide we are ready to get Kaia a puppy friend we will be coming back to Lisa! Thank you guys for helping us add the tiniest member to our family.

    Lisa and Chad were very responsible and very knowledgeable about dachshunds but also very helpful for a first time owner. From what I know the dogs are very well behaved and friendly with other people and they grasp potty training very well.

    Lisa and Chad were so awesome. They communicated so well . Answered all the questions I had and sent pictures of the pup I was interested in. The puppy I bought is so sweet! He has the best disposition and I credit that to them and how well they took care of him. They did a wonderful job with him. I recommend them to anyone looking fir a trustworthy breeder.
