Questions
Have you owned a dachshund in the past? Please describe your dachshund ownership experience and tell me what happened to the dog (still owned, died of old age, etc.). From whom did you purchase your dachshund?
Do you have any other pets or children?
Do you understand what a spay/neuter contract is, and can you comply with the simple spay/neuter contract I require for all pet puppies? The Dachshund Club of America asks responsible breeders to consider selling all pets on spay/neuter contracts. Furthermore, my own spay/neuter contract requires the surgery to be done no sooner than 18 months of age....between the ages of 18-24 months, to be exac
Is there someone in the household that is home during the day to train and socialize a puppy? If not, what are your plans to train and socialize a young dachshund during the day? It is extremely important that dachshund puppies are socialized during their formative months. I do lots of socialization while pups are with me, but this must continue through adulthood.
Although I am absolutely willing to take back a dog of my breeding at any time in its life, do you understand that a dog is for life? Veterinary bills over the lifetime of a dog generally do not get smaller as dogs age. Do you have the resources to care for an elderly dog?
Can you travel to Southern California to meet me and my dogs in person? I do not ship puppies to people I have never met. This would require flying out to me with a Sherpa Bag, to fly a puppy back with you in the cabin of the plane, if you are not from California. Most airlines charge from $75-125 to fly a small dog in cabin.
