Meet the breeder

I'm Julia U., the breeder behind Hudson’s Hounds located in Squires, MO. Our dogs are bred to have top qualities that all families want in their puppies, such as compassion, patience, and love! We are a small, family-run breeding program focusing on quality care, and good health. We truly feel that our puppies are the perfect loving and loyal companions, whether you’ve owned dachshunds your whole life or not!

Q. & A. with Julia

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got my first dachshund when I was 10 years old, and I had my first litter when I was 12 years old. After I got my first, I was in love with the loyalty and bravery the breed had to offer. I wanted everyone to get to experience that same kind of love that a dachshund has to offer. There truly is nothing like the love of a dachshund, and I feel like every child should get to experience that.

  • What makes your program special?

    My breeding program is so much more than just a program. It’s a family that dogs are apart of, and the puppies are raised as part of our family from day one, with our boys being in the whelping box right along side me and the momma. We start intentionally handling at three days of age. Early exposure is so important to raise a grounded puppy.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our 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 puppies include piebald, cream, red, chocolate, chocolate and cream, chocolate and tan, black and tan, black and cream, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    If I could give Julia more than 5 stars, I would in a heartbeat. She is LITERALLY the BEST! Before choosing her, I researched dozens of breeders, but Julia stood out immediately. From our very first interaction, it was clear how thoughtful, kind, and highly educated she is about the longhaired dachshund breed. Throughout the entire process, Julia went above and beyond. She was incredibly responsive and sent frequent pictures and videos, which made the waiting journey so joyful and reassuring. Her ethical standards are unmatched; she does extensive health and OFA testing on her adult dogs, making it completely obvious that she is a dedicated preservationist breeder who cares first and foremost about the health, temperament, and future of her dogs. It is so evident how much love and care she puts into her program. She truly talks about her dogs like they are her family, because to her, they are! If you are looking for a breeder who is responsible, transparent, and genuinely loves what they do, look no further. Julia is absolutely FABULOUS and I would 1,000% recommend her to anyone!

    Julia was so kind, and amazing! It was my first time on Good Dog, and also my first Mini Dachshund! She was super helpful right from the start, which is why I trusted her, and her puppies!

    I truly can’t recommend Julia enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer any questions I had. She shared so many photos and updates of Goose before I brought him home, which made the whole experience so special. You can tell how deeply she cares for her puppies and wants the very best for them. I am absolutely in love with Goose, and bringing him home has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I’m so grateful for Julia and couldn’t imagine getting my puppy from anyone else!

    Julia was so awesome and responsive throughout picking Muffin from her litter! She sent us videos and pictures all the way leading up to picking up Muffin! Muffin got a bath and she gave us a good bag with muffins toy, food, and baby blanket as well as a snuggle pup for her to sleep with. She was so thoughtful and made sure we had the resources to help her transition!! I will absolutely be coming back to get a dachshund from her when we are ready! We are SO in love and SO happy with our little girl!
