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.

    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.

    Debi is the best!! She was very responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can really tell she puts all of her love and care into each little puppy dog. Debi is also very organized and proficient with the puppies papers making sure no detail is left out, whether it’s vaccination papers or genetic testing reports. I can confidently say that I will be in touch with her again when I’m ready for another dachshund!! 10/10 experience and I highly recommend!!

    I couldn’t Thank Debi enough for being so patient with me figuring out my schedule to meet up. She was so kind, I’m not a people person and I’m very anti social and she gave a very calming energy that I wasn’t afraid of. She gave me the greatest gift of giving me my best friend for the next 15+ years. I couldn’t be more grateful for my puppy Baloo, I take him anywhere I possibly can and I just love him so much. Thank you Debi for the greatest love of my life.

    Picking up my baby from the airport was such an amazing experience. Debi was absolutely wonderful she kept me updated the entire time and made sure I knew what to do step by step. Her kindness and clear communication made the whole process easy and stress-free. I could tell she truly cares about the little ones and the families they’re going to. I’m beyond grateful and so happy with my sweet baby!

    Debi was great to work with, she puts the health and well-being of the dog first and foremost. This was the first time purchasing a puppy online and she made the process super easy. Debi kept us updated with the pups growth with texts and pictures clear up to putting him on the transport for his big adventure to his new loving home with us. I highly recommend Debi when purchasing a new fur baby of your own. I will definitely keep Lil Deschutes in mind when adding to our fur family. Thanks Debi for everything you've done for Ben and us. God bless
