Who We Are – Anderson Dachshunds

Experienced • Ethical • Family-Raised Miniature Dachshund Breeders

At Anderson Dachshunds, we are a small, dedicated family breeder specializing in healthy, well-socialized Miniature Dachshund puppies raised with love, integrity, and years of hands-on experience. As passionate breed enthusiasts, we focus on producing puppies with excellent health, stable temperaments, and true Miniature Dachshund structure, staying loyal to the standards that make this breed so special.

Our Breeding Philosophy

Our program is built on the belief that every puppy deserves the highest start in life. We prioritize:

  • Health-tested parents with OFA and DNA screening

  • Strong, proven bloodlines with predictable size and temperament

  • Family-style socialization from birth

  • Ethical breeding practices ensuring long-term breed preservation

We raise all puppies inside our home—not in kennels—allowing them to grow up around normal household activities, children, daily handling, and early basic training. This produces confident, affectionate Miniature Dachshunds ready to transition smoothly into their new homes.

Our Experience & Background

With many years of hands-on experience in raising, caring for, and understanding the Miniature Dachshund breed, we’ve learned the importance of structure, temperament, and early development. Over time, we have refined our program to focus on:

  • Breeding for longevity and sound health

  • Improving temperament and personality predictability

  • Producing true Miniature Dachshund sizes, typically 8–11 lbs full grown

  • Educating families on proper care, training, and long-term health

Our background includes working closely with trusted veterinarians, reproductive specialists, and genetic testing laboratories to ensure each litter meets the highest standard of health and care.

Health Testing & Responsible Practices

Every breeding dog in our program is thoroughly evaluated through:

  • OFA heart & patella certifications

  • CERF/eye examinations

  • DNA screening for PRA, IVDD-related risks, and other breed-specific conditions

This commitment allows us to confidently offer healthy, responsibly bred Miniature Dachshund puppies that families can trust for years to come.

Family Values & Puppy Environment

We believe that exceptional puppies come from exceptional care. Our puppies are raised in a peaceful, nurturing environment where they receive:

  • Early neurological stimulation

  • Introduction to crate and potty training

  • Socialization with children and gentle household exposure

  • Individual handling and personality evaluations

This early foundation is essential for producing well-adjusted, loving companions.
