Meet the breeder

I'm Tamra E., the breeder behind Mountain Sage Dachshunds located in Malad City, ID. We are pet owners first and foremost. All of our puppies are raised as members of our family until they’re ready to join yours. Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved.

    We had such a wonderful experience adopting the newest member of our family from Tamra. She was so knowledgeable about dachshunds, answered all of our questions, provided genetic testing for the parents and kept us up to date with weekly pictures. Tamra has also been available after adoption in answering all of our questions as new puppy owners. Our pup, Rumi, has a wonderful disposition- she is curious and has some spunk, but also loves attention, belly rubs and cuddles. This is the best experience we could have asked for and we highly recommend adopting your puppy from Tamra, we will definitely be adopting our next from her!

    Tamra was very responsive and cares a lot about her reputation and her puppies. The process was smooth and our little puppy has been amazing. I have 3 long haired mini dachshunds I would definitely recommend Tamra to anyone looking at the breed. Her pups are beautiful and have a great disposition.

    Tamara was amazing to work with! She provided photo updates every week, and answered any questions we had. She was also very flexible with meeting times & locations. She was able to hold our puppy for an extra month until I was able to start working from home. We cannot recommend her enough!
