Meet the breeder

I'm Tammy H., the breeder behind Hancock House of Hounds located in Farmerville, LA. Hi! My name is Tammy Hancock. My husband Nicky and I are the breeders behind Hancock House of Basset Hounds and Mini Dachshunds. We're passionate about raising health happy puppies. We put a lot into socializing them so they can transition easily into their new lives. We treasure each puppy in our program and give them all the attention and care that we possibly can. We work hard so our puppies can leave our home with confidence, ready to take on the world with their new family!

Q. & A. with Tammy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    The joy that my 1st basset hound brought into my life and the breed was not common in my area I decided to start breeding.
  • What makes your program special?

    All my dogs are part of our family. I keep all my dog inside my home. They've all got safe fenced in areas to run and play. Mom and babies have their own room. I spend time loving on the puppies daily and whenever the get around 5 weeks I let them explore my home while mom is outside. I introduce them to my other dogs, and my grandchildren. With them living in my home they're use to different sounds and noises of every day life. I start introducing puppy pads training to them around 4 weeks. My prayer is for my puppies to find forever homes full of all the love that they receive in my care.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Dachshund puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    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 Basset Hound puppies are black brown and white. Dachshund puppies include piebald, black, chocolate, black and tan, chocolate and cream, black and cream, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

“We take great care of placing our puppies with the right family. Puppies are a lifetime commitment and before taking a deposit I like to talk with their new parent. My goal is to make sure their new family has experience or has done their reach on the dachshund breed. As all breeds dachshunds there are pros and cons that come with owning one. If at anytime before the puppy is ready, I feel their new family is not a perfect fit I reserve the right to return the deposit and cancel the sale.”

“The price includes the full registration, health guarantee, dewclaw removal, deworming, vet check and 1st round of vaccines. The deposit is to reserve your puppy.

    My experience with Tammy was amazing! She responded so quickly and sent me so many videos and pictures of my little guy before I got him!! She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process and if you are looking for a puppy I couldn’t recommend her enough!
