Q. & A. with Michelle
Why did you start breeding?
My daughter started asking for a Dachshund from the time she was like 3 and kept asking until she finally got one for her 7th birthday. We were all in love!! Everyone was asking where did you get your puppy and there was so much attention being given to her I said hey that may be an opportunity I could pursue. So I purchased a male and the rest is history.What makes your program special?
From the time they are born until they go to their new homes we allow the mothers to stay with them and teach them all the things they need to know to be good pups and we begin teaching them what they need to know to become good pets. Extremely hands on we sit up all night with a whelping mother to ensure the safety of her and her pups. This is not just a job they are our family.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 include smooth and longhaired coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include piebald, red, black, chocolate and tan, chocolate and cream, black and tan, and black and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

We bought a mini dachshund from Michelle and it was a wonderful experience!! All green flags from her! She was very helpful and answered all the questions I had! She never made me question her knowledge one bit. I felt so comfortable getting our baby from her and it was seriously such a smooth experience.
