Meet the breeder

I'm Tygeras P., the breeder behind The Weenie Herd Mom located in Live Oak, FL. I offer top-quality puppies. I breed for temperament and gene quality. All puppies are raised in my home and loved as family! My dogs are bred for health and temperament. All puppies are raised in my home from conception to their furever homes with love. They are socialized to home sounds (vacuum, electric mops, stereo, TVs, etc). They are used to other dogs, stairs and have had lots of human interaction.

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • Eye Examination (rDVM, not registered with OFA)

    Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.

  • 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.

    Breeder was very communicative and helpful with the whole process. I was a bit on the fence about getting a dog and she was very patient with me. I got a boy from raven and shadows litter. His name is Dave and he is the best decision I’ve made. He’s the sweetest, smartest, sassiest, and goofiest little boy. Everywhere I take him people always want to stop and say hi. I strongly encourage if you’re to get a dachshund this is the breeder to go with.

    Tigeras (Ty) is a wonderful lady who really cares about her dogs who are also her pets. She was easy to work with and always answered my questions. Despite her pain with a pending surgical procedure, she was easy to communicate with and even shared a few laughs due to my changing my new puppy’s names a few times - she will now learn that I changed it again (but it is final now and on paper)! 😂 If I decide to add a playmate for Dyna in the future, I will definitely be working with Ty again.

    Tygeras was responsive and knowledgeable about the breed. You can tell she loves dachshunds! She communicated updates on how the puppy was doing and sent pictures and videos. Our little guy, who we named Toby, is doing great and is so sweet! We would check in with her again if we’re ever looking for another dachshund.

    Tygeras was very responsive and deserving of the title "Weenie Herd Mom". We had a pleasant experience from initial contact all the way to pick up. Her puppies are obviously well taken cared of and loved, and we cannot wait to continue that love with our own little pup now! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a Miniature Dachshund!!
