Meet the breeder
Meet Darling Diamond Doxies. Laura Sue Dunlap is from Florida and breeds Miniature Dachshunds since 2011. AKC proudly supports dedicated and responsible breeders. We encourage all prospective puppy owners to do their research and be prepared with questions to ask the breeder. Make sure you are not only choosing the right breed for you, but also that you’re getting it from the right individual. I bought my first dachshund Sassy Pants in July of 2010. She is the first thing you see when you log onto my site. I walked into a PetLand in Ohio to buy a dachshund for my elderly daddy because he had recently lost his dachshund. Well, three dachshunds later we left the store. My daughter bought Mattie. We bought daddy PJ. I purchased Sassy Pants. The three girls had found their forever homes. I retired from The Army in 2011. I really hadn't decided what I was going to do with retirement. I had been with the Army and a Registered Nurse working critical care units and ER for so long, so I knew I couldn't just sit home and knit. Since I had some time on my hands I started dachshund research. I soon learned about puppy mills. I had no idea that most dogs from pet stores come from puppy mills. I started researching small home breeders. That's where I found my first boy Jasper. We had are first litter in 2011. I thought this will be a fun way to spend my time. As i continued my research and talked to many seasoned breeders and some research veternarians, I soon discovered that there was a lot more to do than just play with puppies. Although, they are a lot of work, I couldn't think of a better way to spend my retirement years. As in anything we do, I have had some hard lessons to learn, but I take from it the positive and learn from it. I do not recommend breeding your loving pets because so much can go wrong. Did you know that spaying/neutering your pets increases the life span of your pet? I have now been breeding 11 years and I am so amazed how much I have learned about this breed, breeding, whelping and retiring my dogs. We stop breeding our moms by 4 1/2 - 5 years old. We then rehome them with either a family that has another Doxie or my first choice is to place them with one of their own puppies. No adult dog leaves here until they are spay/neutered, dental completed, vaccine up to date and they will have a Health Certificate from my vet. We will always WELCOME HOME any dog or puppy that doesn't work out in a new home. Our dogs are very well cared for and always receive proper vet care to include annual dental cleanings and exams. www.darlingdoxiedogs.com
