Why choose us
Recently we had the honor of being chosen as one of the top 9 dachshund breeders in MN by the independent website dachworld.com https://www.dachworld.com/dachshund-breeders-in-minnesota/
We have over 18 years of experience breeding and raising dachshunds! We strive to raise happy, healthy, well rounded puppies that are true to the breed standard and will make excellent family pets. All our puppies are sold as pets ONLY without registration papers! Our puppies are raised in our home around kids, people, dogs and the normal day to day comings and goings of an active household. They go to their new homes current on vaccinations and deworming and have been examined by a licensed veterinarian we provide documentation on all of this. We also provide a written health and genetic guarantee. All puppies are sent home with a goodie basket including a bag of food, toys, chewies, and a blanket that smells like mom and littermates to help with the transition to a new family. All our adults have been health checked and DNA tested for any predisposition to genetic disorders for their exact colors and patterns and to ensure they are in fact 100% pure bred dachshunds. Any puppy can be put on hold before they are ready to go at 8 weeks. We require a $200 NONREFUNDABLE deposit.
Lifetime Breeder Support!
We offer a lifetime of support to our new puppy families. This means if you have any questions, comments or concerns whether it be 1 day from purchase or 5 years down the road. We want to make sure you have a wonderful experience with your new family member throughout their lifetime. We also welcome updates through the years and very much enjoy pictures and videos!
Potty training
We will get your puppy started on learning to go potty outside and use the crate training method https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/training/how-to-crate-train-your-dog-in-9-easy-steps/
We recommend you continue this method once home. We highly recommend avoiding puppy pads if you want your puppy to use the outdoors as their place to go to the bathroom.
Location
We are located in Elk River Minnesota which is about 45 minutes NW of Minneapolis. We welcome our puppy buyers to pick up their puppy from our home in person. We also allow one in home visit prior to pick up once the deposit has been received. Unfortunately for the safety of ourselves, our children, our dogs and puppies we can no longer allow visitors unless there has been a deposit made. Prior to the deposit we are more than willing to talk on the phone, video chat, or send any requested pictures. When visiting we may ask you to leave children at home depending on the age of the puppies and the age of your children please ask when scheduling a time to visit.
***When scheduling a visit or pick up time please be respectful of our time. We have lives outside of our dogs/puppies. We have children and nieces and nephews involded in school and activities. We also often have multiple puppies leaving in a day and try to schedule pick ups so they do not overlap this gives us time to make sure we can thoroughly go over instructions for taking your new puppy home and answer any and all questions. If you will be arriving more then 15 min. early or late we ask you to please let us know. If you will be more than 15 min. late we may unfortunately need to reschedule.
We are also able to meet part way or deliver your puppy for a fee. We do not typically offer shipping, but sometimes can in certain circumstances. Instead of shipping we often meet puppy families at the airport and then they fly home with their new puppy safely inside the cabin of the plane.
