Meet the breeder
I'm Alyssa S., the breeder behind Shotgun Pups located in Purdy, MO. We pride ourselves on the quality and health of each baby that leaves our home. What sets us apart from the rest is the attention to detail and time spent working with our dogs. A very close friend of mine got me hooked on Show/competitions. Now I'm always looking forward to the Next Event!
Q. & A. with Alyssa
Why did you start breeding?
My mother is a National AGS Judge. Attending and participating in State Fairs, and showing across the US was my childhood. I have my Mother to thank for my deep love and appreciation of animals. Caring for them comes naturally. I cant imagine a life without my dogs.What makes your program special?
We are where we are today because of the hard work and Ethic that has been put into our program. I pride myself on being able to say our dogs are Happy, Health Tested and well taken care of. I enjoy traveling and participating in the dog show world. One of my greatest achievements is being able to say "My home bred/raised puppies are in the competition ring." All of our puppies are Pet-only.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our Dachshund puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our Dachshund puppies include 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 Dachshund puppies include piebald, brindle, fawn (isabella) and cream, chocolate and cream, blue and tan, black and cream, and dapple. Boxer puppies include fawn and brindle. Boston Terrier puppies include brindle and white, seal and white, and black and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
