At Foley Dachshunds, our breeding program is built on a deep respect for the miniature dachshund breed and a commitment to preserving its health, temperament, and correct structure. Since 2015, every breeding has been thoughtfully planned with purpose, patience, and care.
We are a small, home‑based program, allowing us to focus on quality rather than quantity. Our dogs are first and foremost beloved family members, raised in a nurturing home environment where they receive daily interaction, socialization, and individualized attention.
Health, Structure & Temperament First
We carefully evaluate each pairing with an emphasis on:
- ✅ Sound temperament and stable personalities
- ✅ Correct miniature dachshund structure and movement
- ✅ Strong pedigrees and breed type
- ✅ Long‑term health and overall well‑
Thoughtfully Raised Puppies
Our puppies are raised in the home and exposed to everyday sights, sounds, and experiences from an early age. Early socialization helps set the foundation for:
- Happy, well‑adjusted puppies
- Smooth transitions to new homes
- Strong human‑dog bonds
We believe the work we do in the first weeks of a puppy’s life makes a lifelong difference.
Placement with Care
Every puppy that leaves Foley Dachshunds is placed with intention. We take the time to get to know prospective families and carefully match puppies with homes that fit their individual personalities and needs.
We remain a lifelong resource for our puppy owners and are always happy to provide guidance, support, and education.
Preservation‑Minded Breeding
As an AKC member, we are passionate about preserving the miniature dachshund as it was intended—balanced, healthy, and true to the breed standard.
Whether a puppy goes to a show home, a performance home, or a loving companion home, our goal is the same: to produce dachshunds that represent the breed with pride and integrity.
Our Promise
At Foley Dachshunds, breeding is not a business—it’s a responsibility. We are committed to doing right by our dogs, our puppies, and the families who trust us.
