BREEDER & PUPPY

                            QUESTIONS

LISTED BELOW ARE QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK A BREEDER ABOUT THEM AND THEIR PUPPIES. WE HAVE PROVIDED OUR ANSWERS AND UPON RESEARCH YOU WILL FIND THAT OUR ANSWERS AND OPINIONS ARE BASED ON VETERINARIAN ADVICE, EXPERIENCE AND FACTS.

BEFORE PURCHASING A PUPPY BE SURE AND ASK OTHER BREEDERS THESE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS.

1. HOW AND WHERE ARE YOUR PUPPIES RAISED?

(WE BIRTH AND RAISE ALL OUR PUPPIES IN OUR NURSERY WHERE WE CAN RAISE THEM "HANDS ON" AND CARE FOR THEM 24 HOURS A DAY.)

2. DO YOU TAKE YOUR PUPPIES TO A LICENSED VETERINARIAN PRIOR TO ALLOWING THEM TO LEAVE YOUR CARE?

(YES, WE TAKE EACH PUPPY SCHEDULED TO FLY TO OUR VET PRIOR TO THEM LEAVING OUR CARE AT 8-10 WEEKS OF AGE. THEY WILL BE PROPERLY VACCINATED AND WORMED PRIOR TO LEAVING OUR HOME.)

3. DO YOU PROVIDE A WRITTEN HEALTH GUARANTEE AND HEALTH RECORDS FROM YOUR VET?

(YES, WE PROVIDE A 3 DAY WRITTEN HEALTH GUARANTEE AND ALL VET RECORDS, AS WELL AS OUR VETS NAME, ADDRESS AND PHONE CONTACT.)

4.  HAVE YOU HAD ANY HERIDITARY DEFECTS IN YOUR DOGS?

(WE CONTINUOUSLY STUDY OUR DACHSHUND BREED AND CHECK VIGOROUSLY FOR ANY DEFECTS AND HEREDITARY GENES THAT MIGHT BE PASSED ON. DOGS WITH IMPROPER BREEDING QUALITIES ARE SPAYED OR NEUTERED AND PLACED IN LOVING PET HOMES.  YOU CAN FEEL ASSURED THAT YOUR NEW PUPPY COMES FROM CLEAN LINES WITH GREAT CONFIRMATION AND PLEASANT TEMPERMENTS.)

5. DO YOU BREED DOGS OF OTHER BREEDS?

(ONLY MINI-DACHSHUNDS. IT IS HARD TO FOCUS AND BE EXPERIENCED ON SEVERAL BREEDS AT ONE TIME. A BREEDER MUST DEVOTE TIME AND EFFORT TO STUDY THEIR BREED FOR EFFECTIVE BREEDING.)

6. CAN I CALL YOUR VET TO ASK ABOUT YOUR PUPPIES AND DOGS HEALTH?

(YES, WE FREELY OFFER YOU TO ASK OUR VET THEIR OPINION OF OUR PUPPIES AND DOGS HEALTH, AS WELL AS THE CARE WE GIVE THEM.)

7. DO YOU OFFER TO TAKE A DOG/PUPPY BACK IF I AM NO LONGER ABLE TO KEEP IT...FOR WHATEVER REASON?

(YES, IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO KEEP YOUR PUPPY OR DOG FOR ANY REASON, WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO TAKE IT BACK AND FIND IT ANOTHER GOOD HOME.)

8. ARE YOUR DOGS REGISTERED AND WITH WHAT REGISTERIES?

(YES, WE HAVE ONLY AKC REGISTERED DOG AND PUPPIES)

9. I AM THINKING ABOUT BREEDING AND/OR SHOWING MY DOG, DOES IT MATTER WHICH PUPPY I PICK?

(YES, NOT ALL PUPPIES SHOULD BE BRED AND/OR SHOWN. ANY BREEDER THAT ANSWERS YES IS JUST SELLING YOU A PUPPY...THEY SHOULD BE HONEST ABOUT WHICH PUPPIES ARE SUITABLE FOR YOU. NOT ALL PUPPIES ARE OF QUALITY TO BE BRED OR SHOWN BECAUSE THEY MAY BE LACKING IN CERTAIN AREAS THAT YOU WOULD NOT WANT TO REPRODUCE OR WOULD ELIMINATE THEM FROM THE SHOW RING.)

10. CAN  I COME VIEW YOUR KENNEL AND HAND PICK MY PUPPY?

(YES,  YOU MAY SCHEDULE A TIME TO COME TO OUR KENNEL AND SEE THE SIRE AND DAM OF THE LITTER AND PLAY WITH YOUR NEW PUPPY.  IF DISTANCE IS AN ISSUE, WE WILL GLADLY SEND PHOTOGRAPHS OF THE KENNEL AND EACH PARENT AND PUP.)
