Meet the breeder

I'm Debi F., the breeder behind Lil Deschutes located in La Pine, OR. Our puppies are excellent representations of their breed, and we are proud to offer our high-quality puppies to loving homes. We are experienced breeders. We’re careful to breed and raise our pups with only the best policies. The quality of our dogs reflects the conscious decisions we make throughout every part of the breeding process.

Q. & A. with Debi

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My husband raised and trained hunting breeds and one year my daughter wanted a small puppy for her birthday. Not knowing anything about the dachshund breed I bought a unregistered puppy that ended up being the best puppy we ever had "Gus".
  • What makes your program special?

    I show my puppies and health test all breeding adults. I do not keep any puppy for breeding purposes that does not pass all health testing or has a bad or even questionable temperament. I socialize all puppies from the day they are born.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have smooth coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include red, wild boar, chocolate and tan, and black and tan. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    My experience with Debi was amazing she made sure to answer any and all of my questions that I had about the puppy we were getting. Debi was able to work with me on a location to pick up the puppy since it was a long drive for me to go all the way to where she was located. She kept me up to date on all vet appointments and sent letters from the vet appointments as a review. When picking up the puppy Debi supplied a going home goodie bag for the puppy and us containing vet records on the puppy and background on mom and dad, the bag also came with some toys for the puppy and a small bag of food for him. Overall I would definitely go back to her for another puppy

    We had a great experience with Lil Deschutes and couldn’t be happier with our girl, Maeby. Debi was kind, communicative, and clearly very invested in the health and wellbeing of her dogs. Maeby came home confident, well-socialized, and incredibly sweet. We’re so grateful to Debi and would absolutely recommend Lil Deschutes.

    Working with Debi was a wonderful experience! She was very responsive and sent weekly pictures to keep me updated on my puppies growth. My drive to pick up my puppy was six hours but Debi was kind enough to drive two hours to meet me. She even provided a little goody bag at pick up. Great experience and my little Zinnia is a wonderful puppy.

    Debi was amazing. This being my first experience with a breeder She made it a great one. She was very quick to respond to any questions and concerns that I had. We had everything set for a meet so I could pick my new furbaby (Ozzy) up. The day before I received an emergency phone call from family back home in Michigan. I tried everything to still keep the meet up which was a 4 hr drive and plan flying back home to MI. We communicated back and forth and Debi realized the situation I was in and volunteered to keep my puppy until I returned which was almost 3 wks later....It gave me a pc of mind while I went home for the passing and then planning the funeral of my Mom. We met up 2 days after my return home and she was amazing. My son and I instantly fell in love with our puppy. Thank you Debi I appreciate you.
