Top quality SMOOTH STANDARD dachshunds, linebred on established bloodlines well known for gorgeous breed type, elegance, correct movement, top conformation, and proper temperament. This line has a history of top producers in our breed, specialty winners, and smooth standard dachshunds with a very special and very distinctive look.
I breed to keep a promising puppy to show and continue the bloodline, but not every puppy in a well-planned show litter necessarily turns out to be a true show prospect. A pet from a litter like this gets the benefit of years of planning and all of the care and attention given to show prospects. My puppies are well socialized with children and part of the family.
I only have TRUE smooth standard dachshunds-- usually between 20-32 pounds-- NOT minis. I don't breed oddball colors or cross coats, don't breed dogs that have not proven themselves in the AKC conformation ring, don't breed oversized minis and call them "small standards," or anything like that...this is a well planned breeding program of true SMOOTH STANDARD dachshunds ONLY. My emphasis is proper breed type, correct temperament, and careful attention/research regarding genetic health concerns in our breed. I do appropriate health screens prior to breeding, as listed by our parent club. My dogs are sane house companions with plenty of natural hunting instinct. Many of my dogs in pet homes do performance events, but they are not considered breeding stock. Form follows function, so I only breed dogs that are correct in conformation and temperament.
Please inquire only if you are looking for a well bred smooth standard dachshund puppy from a responsible breeder and can provide information about your home environment. I do ask an awful lot of questions and do screen potential pet homes carefully :) I DO NOT ship puppies to people I have never met, so be prepared to come to Southern California for a well bred member of your family. I am happy to send photos and information to serious people who have researched the breed or who have successfully owned dachshunds in the past. PLEASE plan on being patient for the right puppy... I do not have puppies at all times or sell puppies as soon as they turn 8 weeks old. I am NOT one of those "web site breeders" who breed three litters at once, etc. ! Hope you understand why it takes time for good breeders to make their decisions and not simply send all their puppies on their way at 8 weeks of age. It takes some time to evaluate a show litter and make good decisions, so be prepared to wait for me to go through this process. My puppies are definitely worth the wait, if you are looking for a top quality, "real" smooth standard dachshund for either pet or show!
