Thor is a very healthy active and handsome black and tan smooth haired dachshund. Ideally we would like a pup from the litter in lieu of payment. We looked into getting him registered with the ikc but we do not have the 3 generations of lineage required. Any pups from him are guaranteed to be loving and buckets of fun!
Tips for contacting breeders:
- Keep communication through our messaging system for as long as possible.
- Choose carefully what information you share about yourself.
- Ask for recent health check certificate from their vet, this should check for known issues with the breed & have details of vaccinations. The AKC has a comprehensive list of their health testing requirements per breed.
- Ask breeders about the vet who has taken care of the dog and contact the vet directly.
- Ask breeders to provide their ID (drivers licence / passport) and take note of their contact details.
- If you are new to breeding, please, please, read this article about breeding dogs
- Stud dogs listed need to be 12 months or older. While bigger breeds may mature faster, often health complications don't show until later.
- If they are a registered breeding establishment or registered seller ask to see their certifications.
- Report suspicious activity to your local Garda Station & / or the Department of Agriculture, Food & Marine.
