Why did you start breeding?
I always wanted to become a mini doxie breeder. I am living out my dreams!

I don’t just love my dogs, I spoil them! We are the vet several times a year. Always up to date on worming, shots, vaccinations, and several physicals a year. They are like children to me. I love them so much!

Our puppies have longhaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include cream, brindle, and black and cream. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
Southern Paws Mini 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.
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
