I got my very first Miniature Dachshund when I was just 16 years old. His name was Guido (Little Guy) and weighed in at 8 pounds full grown. He was a pistol! My contact breeder was in San Diego, CA. Her name was Charlie May. From her I also acquired my first wirehaired Dachshunds and I fell in love with them, too.

Later I had German Shepherd Dogs, Scottish Deerhounds, Borzois (Russian Wolfhounds) and Dobermans. They were all lovely and wonderful companions. I missed having the little scruffy hounds and returned to Dachshunds some years ago.

Now I have a houseful of these little hounds and there's no turning back. Yes, they require a lot of care, love, grooming (especially the wires) and staying in contact with the veterinarian keeps them all healthy.

Exhibiting these creatures in the show ring is great fun and can be a very expensive undertaking. Many of the pups that I've placed have gone on to their AKC Conformation Championships and their AKC Field Championships, some have even been awarded AKC Earth Dog Titles. I only show on a limited basis as the time and travel required is extensive and I have limited of both available to me.

I do breeding on a very limited basis. I'm not the one to turn to for a pup if you want a specific coat, color, sex, size and the like. However, if you'd like one of my kids, contact me and I'll let you know if I have a breeding planned in the future. All puppies placed in non-show homes are released only with a spay/neuter agreement, sorry.
