Everything You Need to Know

Every puppy has their own personality and temperament. We can help you consider factors such as age, gender, coat type, personality, activity level, and your family's lifestyle to find a puppy that is a good match for your home.

Availability can vary. Our available puppies may include different Dachshund coat types, colors, sizes, and personalities. Visit our available puppies page or contact us for current availability.

Reservation options depend on the puppy and current availability. If you have a particular puppy in mind, contact us as soon as possible so we can explain the reservation process and next steps.

Puppies receive appropriate veterinary attention before going to their new homes. Health information and available records can be discussed with you as part of the adoption process.

A quality, age-appropriate puppy food is important for healthy growth. When your puppy comes home, we recommend maintaining their familiar feeding routine initially and making any dietary changes gradually.

Young Dachshunds benefit from short walks, gentle play, and age-appropriate activity. Because of their long backs, avoid excessive jumping, rough play, and activities that place unnecessary strain on the spine.

Support your puppy's chest and hindquarters when lifting them, limit repeated jumping from furniture, and provide sensible exercise. Keeping your Dachshund at a healthy weight is also an important part of supporting their overall wellbeing.

The process generally begins by selecting an available puppy and contacting us. We then discuss the puppy, answer your questions, confirm the necessary details, and guide you through the steps required to welcome your new Dachshund home.

Puppies should go to their new homes at an appropriate age and when they are ready for the transition. The exact timing can vary depending on the individual puppy and their circumstances.

Pickup arrangements may be available depending on your location and the puppy. Contact us to discuss available arrangements and what to expect on pickup day.

Transportation options may be available depending on the destination. We can discuss the available arrangements, requirements, and estimated travel details with you before your puppy's journey begins.

Prepare a comfortable sleeping area, food and water bowls, appropriate puppy food, a collar or harness, leash, toys, grooming supplies, cleaning products, and a safe area where your puppy can explore and rest.

Give your puppy time to adjust. Keep the first few days calm, establish a consistent routine, provide a comfortable sleeping area, and introduce new people and experiences gradually. Patience and positive reinforcement are especially important.

Basic training can begin from the moment your puppy comes home. Start with simple commands, potty training, gentle handling, and positive reinforcement. Short, consistent sessions usually work best for young Dachshunds.

Absolutely. We encourage families to ask questions before making a decision. Understanding the puppy, their needs, and the adoption process can help you make a confident choice.

If you are interested in a particular puppy, contact us and we can discuss the information and updates that are available for that puppy.

We'd be happy to help. Send us your question through our contact page and provide as much detail as possible. Our goal is to make sure you have the information you need before welcoming your Dachshund home.
