Q. & A. with Alice
Why did you start breeding?
Dachsunds are funny little dogs, full of personality and versatile enough to follow you on a hike or to cuddle up for a movie. They’re great with kids and make life better! When we got our first dachshund, we were warned that, liked chips, “you can’t have just one!” That turned out to be very true for us and over time we knew that we wanted to produce amazing puppies for others to enjoy.

We live with our dogs always underfoot! We provide our puppies with early stimulations, Puppy Culture, certified vet care, exposure to children, dogs and cats, farm animals and other environmental stimuli. We offer hand delivery services, never using shipping, and lifelong new family support.

Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
