About our Dachshunds:

Welcome to Nuforest Dachshunds

We breed and show quality AKC mini Dachshunds in all three coat varieties:
Miniature Longhaired Dachshunds
Miniature Smooth Dachshunds
Miniature Wirehaired Dachshunds

  • All our Dachshunds are AKC Registered.
  • We plan each miniature Dachshund litter with the thought of keeping a youngster to show or breed.
  • Each breeding is planned well in advance with the idea of improving the miniature Dachshund with each generation.
  • Our miniature Dachshund puppies are born and raised on our home.
  • Dew claws are removed at 3 days of age.
  • Our Dachshund puppies are wormed at 21 days, 31 days, and 41 days of age.
  • Combination vaccinations are started at 8 weeks of age.
  • The shot recored that goes with each puppy shows what shots and wormings the puppy has had and what it will need during the first 6 months.
  • We don't let our miniature Dachshund puppies go to their new homes until they are 8 weeks old if picked up here or if we deliver. We won't ship a puppy until it is 12 weeks of age.
  • Each miniature Doxie has an injected microchip for permanent identification. We have been doing this since the technology was first available in the 1980s.
  • We participate in the AKC's DNA testing programs.
  • Pet/companion puppies are sold with Limited AKC Registration. Our prices for a quality, healthy, well bred and well socialized pet start at $800.
  • A miniature Dachshund purchased to breed or to show will go with Full AKC Registration. Prices start at $800. Miniature Dachshunds that have a champion sire and/or dam start at $1000. Puppies with both a champion sire and a champion dam are $1500. Show prospects that are older or that have AKC Championship points will be priced accordingly.
  • "Rescues" are usually $250 and will be spayed or neutered. They will be up to date with their vaccinations before they go to their new families.
  • Our written contract clearly show our guarantees, remedies, and also what we expect of our puppy buyers.
  • Each Dachshund goes home with a 5 or 6 generation pedigree that shows Champions, AKC numbers, colors/pattern.
  • Each mini Dachshund puppy goes home with a 60 day veterinary insurance policy issued by DVM VPI. This insurance will help the new owners pay the bills if their puppy is injured in an accident or becomes ill. We ask that you continue to protect your pet with Veterinary Pet Insurance for it's lifetime.
  • We include a small supply of NuVet vitamins with each "go-home" package and ask that the Dachshund be kept on the supplement for it's lifetime.
  • Our miniature Dachshund puppies are fed a top quality puppy food. We include a small bag in the "go-home" package. Again, we ask that the Dachshund be fed quality food throughout their lives.
  • We have some lovely stud dogs available t approved bitches. We have frozen semen stored at the Canine Cryobank and are able to ship fresh or frozen semen worldwide.
  • We are glad to refer folks to other reputable/ethical breeders and rescue organizations who also have Dachshunds available in all areas of the country.
  • We enjoy helping others who love Dachshunds get started in dog shows, improve brood stock or who may have issues with their own Dachshunds.
