Breeder-Reported Testing

Great level

Pasta Pups Miniature Dachshunds reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Dachshunds.

  • Cardiac Evaluation (rDVM, not registered with OFA)

    Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.

  • Patellar Luxation

    Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.

  • DNA Disease Panel

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

    I highly enjoyed this breeder. She always went out of her way to answer any questions i might have had. Nikita also kept me up to date with photos of Butters growing process. When we met her to get him she gave us all the vet and microchip information as well as dog food he was eating, a blanket and toy. Pellets for the training pads and training pads. In a decorative bag. She was very nice and great communication skills. I would definitely use her again. ❤️

    Awesome experience getting our dog from Nikita! She responded quickly and answered any questions that we had. We put the deposit down on our puppy well before he was ready to be picked up, but she sent videos and pictures of him throughout the waiting period. When we got him, he was already trained to use a little pad/litter box to use the bathroom so cleanup with a puppy has been a breeze! We have 2 other dogs at home and he's fitting right in. If we get another dachshund in the future, I hope she's still in business!
