Meet the breeder

I'm Dawn P. L., the breeder behind GretaLo Dachshunds located in Vancouver, WA. Love of the dachshund breed impassions me to practice evidence-based genetic science at GretaLo with the mission of preventing genetically identifiable causes of disease or disability. GretaLo puppy owners automatically become part of the GretaLo Doxie Pack. Homes are carefully selected.

Q. & A. with Dawn P.

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I love science, the study of genetics and dachshunds. Breeding these adorable mini balls of fluffy love was a logical transition after retirement. My goal is to improve the breed through responsible DNA testing and responsible selective matching of parent dogs. My goal is to improve the breed through DNA testing and responsible selective breeding.

  • What makes your program special?

    All my dogs are my pets. I ❤️ and care for them with their health and happiness being my primary goal. I breed each female 4 times. She is then retired. I average 2 litters a year. You may need to consider getting on the waiting list to bring home a GretaLo dachshund.

    Dawn was incredibly responsive and informative about getting our first dachshund! It was super seamless to pick our baby up from her and she is around 1 year old and absolutely perfect. I can’t believe how sweet and perfect she is. Thank you Dawn for helping us find our perfect dog!!

    I had a wonderful experience with this Breeder. She is knowledgeable and attentive to buyers concerns and questions. She has great communication with lots of updates of our puppy along the way! We could not have asked to work with a better breeder. Our puppy has a great temperament and is so sweet as well! Dawn also was so thoughtful with making sure our baby “Greta” would be comfortable with some scents and comforts of her first home while transitioning to her forever home. Dawn has been a wealth of knowledge as a Breeder.
