Our adventure into breeding and raising these amazing dogs, all started as a homeschool project. My husband Bruce and I adopted 4 siblings and we were a homeschooling family. We decided to add 2 dogs to our family, first and foremost as pets, so we did lots of research and spoke with several breeders and came across SandyLaliberty in Arkansas who was a tremendous help and offered tons of information to help us in our journey. The older 2 boys, BJ and Riley decided to make a little business venture out of it, keeping records, food charts etc. Well, after the first litter arrived, they lost interest but Mama and Daddy were addicted to these amazing dogs so we decided to continue, always researching and learning about the awesome Dachshund breed. I love making people happy and what better way to share my love of Dachshunds (and my addiction) than by producing wonderful amazing puppies!! I LOVE COMPLETING FAMILIES AND I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU!

~~I am a dog breeder. I spend a lifetime learning pedigrees, going over dogs, talking, and learning from those in my breed and those outside it. I raise each litter as if I gave birth to them and spend an equal amount of time finding them loving forever homes. I only bring puppies into this world that I think will be the healthiest (mentally and physically) and best examples of their breed. I support each family who chooses one of my puppies and let them know they are now a part of our extended family. I treat them all well.
I am there if one needs to come back and will aggressively pursue the return of one of my dogs if it's in the wrong place. I support my breed in rescue and education. I hold them when they arrive and leave this world. I share my knowledge and socialize my dogs so that they will be the advertisement for my dedication. I don't keep track of the money and time I put in to my love of dogs, it would not be a true measure of how I feel.
The price I charge for my puppies is never profit, but investment in the next generation. I am not ashamed of who I am... I work hard at being a good dog breeder and encouraging others. I am a breeder and I am proud of it. If we don't support each other - we are doomed as a fancy
