Q. & A. with Lizandro
Why did you start breeding?
My journey into dog breeding began with a deep love for the breed and a desire to give others the same joy I found in my first Dachshund. What started as a family pet quickly became a passion — I found myself drawn to everything about the breed: their temperament, intelligence, and unique personalities.
As I learned more, I became increasingly aware of how important responsible breeding is.

At Torres Dachshunds, we take pride in running a breeding program that goes beyond just producing beautiful puppies — we focus on creating healthy, well-rounded dogs that will thrive in loving homes for years to come.
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 include longhaired and smooth coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include black and tan and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
