Parent dogs
KIMBER, mom
Dachshund
About KIMBER
KIMBER is a female Dachshund. Carefully selected as a great representative of her breed, Tiffany decided to make her part of their program. Tiffany has passed Good Dog’s screening process, which involved a review of their breeding practices, environment, and the mental and physical health of their dogs.
Ember, mom
Dachshund
About Ember
Ember was a lucky find for my program. She has an amazing Red Brindle coat. Pictures do not do her coat color and pattern justice. She has a mohawk down the ridge of her muzzle that is the cutest! She is currently nursing her 2nd litter. She is an AMAZING momma!! I will have one more litter from her before retiring her. She is a cuddle big and loves belly rubs. If you stop rubbing/petting her, she will nudge you with her nose until you resume!! She is so smart and sweet!
River, dad
Dachshund
About River
I have had River since he was 7 weeks old. He was the only boy in his litter. He has the sweetest temperament. I believe his temperament is from growing up with 6 sisters!! He has never met a stranger. He LOVES everyone, and he LOVES attention. We call him the side-eye KING and his royal regalness. He has an amazing pattern and coat.
