Dianka, mom
Dachshund
About Dianka
Dianka is the sweetest little girl and now a proud and loving mother of 4 beautiful puppies.
She is the 3rd generation of my Russian imports.
She is laid back and has some endearing quirks like standing on her hind legs and begging with her front paws. 🐾 Whenever she wants something or wants to be picked up and held, she assumes this pose.
She has her CGC title and is content to go for walks and sit on my lap.
Yenesei, dad
Dachshund
About Yenesei
Yenesei is a Russian import and AKC Grand Championship with AKC CGC TK accomplishments.
He has a high prey drive and has sired a dual field and show Champion.
He is a great protector of his turf and alerts for anything that he thinks doesn’t belong there. Yes, he barks !
He comes for a quick cuddling and then is off again to do his own thing.
Wonderful structure, carries himself like the regal prince he is. His coat is amazing, elegant length and texture. Love my little prince 👑

Parent health testing
Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
Sarou's 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.
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.
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).
