I'm Kristi M., the breeder behind Mountain Farm Dachshunds located in Rutherfordton, NC. All of our dogs are loved as family members. We cherish our puppies from birth up until they leave our arms to snuggle into yours! We are a small enough program that we are able to thoroughly focus on each individual dog and puppy and their needs. We take pride in the time and dedication we give to every litter. We love our dogs and are passionate about raising them to become the best family members possible!

Price
Puppy prices include a $500 non-refundable deposit and between $1,000 - $2,500 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.
“All puppies are dewormed every two weeks, have their first and second round of shots, have a vet health check and exam, and be eligible for either CKC or AKC registry, depending on the litter. The non-refundable deposit is $500. The only way it is refundable is if something happens to the puppy that is beyond my control. I will refund it the same way it was sent.”
