My Dachshunds have been carefully selected, with my dam imported from Germany, to guarantee my puppies' exceptional pedigrees. All of my breeding dogs are fully healthy and genetically tested. I strive for quality over quantity and put my time and care into each litter I produce. My dogs are accomplished in the field and have even performed in Germany!What are the different breed sizes in your program?
