Q. & A. with Paige and Sam
Why did you start breeding?
What began with one beloved dachshund, our OG, Tilly, quickly grew into a desire to share that same joy with many others. Our goal has always been to raise well-socialized, healthy dachshunds that bring lasting love and companionship to families—just like ours did for us.
What makes your program special?
What sets our breeding program apart is that every mini dachshund we raise is carefully planned with health and breed standards in mind, ensuring strong, happy pups. I prioritize early socialization and nurturing environments so each puppy grows confident and well-adjusted. It’s not just about breeding—it’s about creating loving and long lasting companions.
What are the different breed sizes in your program?
Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat types in your program?
Our puppies have longhaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
