I'm Bridget P., the breeder behind Knox Ridge Dachshunds located in Lyles, TN. I am new to selling on Good Dog but not a new breeder. Our family has been raising dachshunds for over 35 years. I have personally been raising for 15 years. Most of our dachshunds are between 10-15 lbs. We raise dachshunds to have good temperament and conformation.
Q. & A. with Bridget
Why did you start breeding?
My grandmother started raising dachshunds before I was born so I have been around the breeding world my whole life. She raised a few different breeds through the years but I really always had a special bond with the dachshunds.
What makes your program special?
I would say the experience that I have with the breed and my ability to care full-time for my dogs. I enjoy raising puppies and I love getting to watch them thrive in their new homes. We also work with our local rescues vs against them to show that breeding can be done responsibly. We help the community making low cost spay and neuter available to families that need to prevent unwanted litters.
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 fawn (isabella) and tan, chocolate and tan, blue and tan, black and tan, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in a kennel on my property.

We got our dachshund, Larry, from Bridget, and it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From the very beginning, she was incredibly knowledgeable about the breed and answered every question we had. She provided many updates on Larry after we decided to purchase him and before we picked him up.
Larry has been the sweetest, most well-behaved little guy since the day we brought him home. It’s clear he came from responsible environment where the puppies are well socialized and cared for. We’ll absolutely be using her again when Larry inevitably needs a brother or sister!

The health guarantee she provided is a testament to the exceptional quality of the puppies she offers. Thank you for helping us find our new precious family member; we are absolutely in love with him!

Bridget of Knox Ridge was a pleasure to work with and always kept me up to date. She was very knowledgeable and answered any questions I had throughout the process. When it came time to pickup my puppy, she even met me halfway to make it easier. Physically and personality wise, Murphy is a perfect example of the dachshund breed I love so much. He has been a joy to train thanks to his inherent smarts and great temperament. He is so sweet and playful; Bridget did a wonderful job socializing him. Murphy is very happy and healthy in his forever home! Whenever it comes time to get Murphy a sibling, I will absolutely choose to work with Bridget again.

Bridget at Know Ridge is an expert on Dachshunds and she was quick to respond to my messages. She gave complete answers to all of my questions. ...my new puppy Petunia is the BEST doggie ever, so adorable and SMART and has learned several commands (sit, down, speak and more!) in just a few weeks. I would definitely be a return customer!
