I'm Teresa P., the breeder behind FloriDachs Miniature Dachshunds located in Largo, FL. Our Dachshund puppies are comfortably home-raised by myself and my husband James. We put a lot of thought and care into their development and spend time socializing them with our pack and our family so they can transition easily into their new homes. Dachshunds are our passion, and we can't imagine spending our lives without them. We are dedicated to achieving excellence through continuous learning and growth within our program, which we in turn, pass on to you! It is our goal to produce happy, healthy family companions. We work hard to bring you confident, healthy well rounded happy little puppies that are prepared to bring joy to their forever homes and families.
