@chpjoe As a dachshund breeder in NC, that price is ludacris. My friend has Grand Champion parents (both) her pups sell for $2300. If you want a healthy, well bred dog wait lists are going to happen. If a breeder has puppies year round on demand, that is a backyard breeder. Trust me when I say...

@workinprocess I understand. Let me check with my UK breeders and see what they use there.

@marianabee I'm going to give my input directly (as in my professional experience and the number of years as a breeder) and in order of your questions. I'm going only by the info you have provided and based on my state and countries law because that info was not provided. 1) The puppies belong...

@workinprocess About 30 days away from whelping I give my bitch(s) an additional lunch meal. The size is as much as they get as a dinner. So essentially they get 2 meals a day until the pups are weaned at aprox 6 weeks old. I also give 2 index fingers of Nutri-cal for puppies every day. The...

@miu4miu As a breeder, I want to congratulate you for your patience and perseverance. You are correct, it does pay off. They are only puppies for a short period of time. Then life happens and as you hold them to cross the rainbow bridge you think “I would do anything to have these days back”. ❤️🐾❤️

@imagebeastmarkbeast One person said "I can take them to my vet, but I choose to vaccinate at home. I don't do it to save the money...". There is no logical other reason to do it. It saddens me to see these babies die, needlessly. People say 'My puppies got Parvo from the vet". To which I say if...

I have been a breeder for a long time. We are currently whelping this evening. In the FB communities I belong to I keep seeing a lot of "the puppy went home and they called me and said they got Parvo." "The puppies are 6 weeks old and not walking. I was told at the vet today they all have...

@geoff58 As a breeder, I concur with the person who gave you the great advice above @flashwastaken

@bpps @Civil_Disturbance has said most of what I would tell you. Get a mentor you can work hands on with in the GSD kennel club. They can take you through learning and handling similar to how the 4H clubs do it. I want to commend you on doing your research!!!! I can not tell you how many people...

Also feel free to contact me if I can help you in any way. I don't know a lot..but after 20+ years of breeding I know a little.😉 My FB page for my kennel is https://www.facebook.com/MacLeodMiniDachshunds/

@meghagupta Yes..I breed mini-dachshunds and we have a breeders page. But I also am on a few GSD and Mal pages because I find them fascinating and they genetically match my dogs from point of origin. They also are working dogs as my dogs are hunting dogs. It's called Dachshund Breeding Basics...

@meghagupta Being that you had 5 breeding's..I would hope and bet he got all the eggs. However, scientifically speaking there is still a chance you have late deposited eggs. The sperm usually last for 72 hours in an active state. Now you are looking with that breed 8-13 pups on average. So the...

@meghagupta Okay let me give it a shot. Yes, your male should have been at least 2. If they are AKC you may want to check with them about the minimum age for the parents in order to register the litter. A mixed litter with 2 sires is very possible. As if there were any unfertilized eggs they...
