Frequently asked questions

We understand that bringing a new family member home is a significant decision. Here, you'll find answers to common questions about our adoption process, waiting list, and how we ensure our puppies thrive in their new environments.

What steps do families need to take to adopt one of your unique dachshund puppies, from start to finish?
Our adoption process includes an application to assess the potential home environment. We consider factors like: What type of environment will the puppy be growing up in? Are there children in the home? Are there other animals in the home? Will proper care be provided for the puppy? Will the puppy be left alone for more than a couple of hours a day and how often? This helps us ensure the best match for our puppies.
