Meet the breeder
I'm Lori G., the breeder behind Gale’s Gorgeous Dachshunds located in Saybrook, IL. I’m very particular about who purchases my puppies. I ask their intentions of my puppy. I want my puppies to go to good homes. I have a small home breeding program that breeds long hair dachshunds. My dachshunds are raised in a loving home with the utmost care.
Q. & A. with Lori
Why did you start breeding?
My uncle loved the breed and after researching for years decided to try. There are a lot of costs with breeding but I want to make sure you get a good quality fur baby!What makes your program special?
I truly care about all of them and am very particular on where they live. I request updates on them because I want to see how my puppies flourish! Each puppy is groomed before going to their new home and I send home a very nice puppy pack to ensure they have the best start in their new homes as if they were still here with me.What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are standard size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

+4I recently purchased a dachshund from Lori, and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. She was kind, knowledgeable, and clearly cares deeply for her dogs. My puppy is healthy, well-socialized, and an absolute joy to have. Lori was great at communicating throughout the process and answered all my questions. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a quality dachshund and a breeder you can trust!

+4Lori was absolutely wonderful! I could tell immediately she was very invested in her doxies and wanted to make sure they were going to a good home. She sent our puppy, Fred, home with the sweetest care package that included a blankie from his litter mates, a soothing stuffie, dog food, pee pads, and a thorough folder filled with all of Fred’s paperwork. I could not recommend her enough as a breeder. Bringing Fred home, I could tell immediately he came from a loving and gentle home environment. He is the calmest doxie I have ever owned and that is due in large part to Lori and her husband. Thank you Lori for giving us such a wonderful addition to our family We LOVE Fred!
