Our Philosophy about breeding:
Much thought and research goes into
planning any litters. We want to make sure that all Stardust bred puppies start off with the right genetics to
be sound in both mind and body. All pups are raised in our home with lots of daily interaction, they are subject to
the noises and activities of daily life and are well socialized before they make their way to new homes.
Because we want to make sure that a standard long haired dachshund is the right dog for your family, and
also to match the puppy that will fit best into your lifestyle, we will ask you complete a puppy buyers questionaire.
Before a pup is sold, we will want to have a personal phone conversation with you, and if we agree that a dachshund is a good
match for your family, we will ask that you also provide a veterinarian reference to ensure the pup will receive the proper
health care.
All puppies are sold with contracts that specify we will accept the dog back for any reason.
We do not want to ever hear of a Stardust bred dog going to a shelter.
Generally, puppies will not be placed with
a family that has children under age 4 unless they are experienced dog owners. It is too hard to balance the needs of
a young child and puppy at the same time. Also, it is not fair for a puppy to be around children that are not carefully
taught how to be treat an animal.
Please note, we will absolutely NOT ship puppies in cargo!!
All puppies must be picked up in person and taken home via extra baggage (under the seat) or in your vehicle. These are our
babies and
must be treated with TLC, not frightened by a noisy airport and bumpy flight.
If you would like
further information on available puppies, upcoming litters, dachshunds in general or would like to review the puppy buyers
questionaire, please write to our email address;
