Get to know us
We are a family-owned and operated breeding program with over 15 years of experience, we pride ourselves on producing healthy, happy, and well-adjusted puppies that make excellent companions for individuals and families alike. Our papillons are bred to conform to the American Kennel Club (AKC) standards for the breed, ensuring that each one possesses the classic butterfly shape ears and delicate facial features that make them so unique. But more than just their physical appearance, we also carefully select our breeding pairs based on their temperament and personality traits. This way, we can ensure that our puppies will not only be beautiful but also have loving and affectionate personalities. From day one, our puppies are given constant love and attention from both humans and other dogs in a safe environment, helping them develop into confident and socialized adults. They receive proper nutrition with high-quality food specifically made for small breeds to support their growth and development. We take great care in finding suitable homes for our puppies as we believe they deserve nothing but the best forever homes where they will be loved unconditionally. That’s why we thoroughly screen potential buyers before allowing them to adopt one of our precious
Return Policy
"Purchasing a puppy should not be an impulsive decision, and it is our customers' responsibility to understand that they are making a decision for the lifetime of the puppy. We do not allow returns, but in the event the puppy you selected does not fit your environment or if puppy is a harm to itself or to people, we will allow a one time exchange for a different puppy more conducive for your lifestyle. ALL PUPPY SALES ARE FINAL outside of the exchange option. Any exchanges must be requested within the first 48 hours of original purchase. Original purchase price will remain the same unless the newly selected pet’s purchase price is higher."

Potty Training Puppy Apartment
As dog lovers and owners, we believe dogs deserve the same potty option as cats and other domesticated animals (including people). Hundreds of years ago, cats and people had to go outside to potty. Our innovative society invented great devices, such as toilets or people and litter boxes for cats. These devices allow us and our pets to potty in a safe, warm, and comfortable environment.
Health Managment
Dachshunds are gentle, loving companions, but their breed predispositions require vigilant health management. Responsible breeders screen for mitral valve disease (MVD), a progressive heart condition affecting most Dachshunds by mid-life, as well as syringomyelia (SM), a neurological disorder linked to their skull structure. Other concerns include hip dysplasia, patellar luxation, eye conditions (like cataracts and retinal disorders), and ear infections due to their floppy ears. Regular vet visits, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding overheating (they’re sensitive to heat) are crucial.
At Mini Dachshund Paws Homes, our philosophy is simple: breed for health, temperament, and conformation to the breed standard. We believe that every dog deserves to be loved and cared for in a nurturing environment, which is why all our breeding dogs are raised as part of our family. Our dogs are not just pets; they are cherished members of our household, and we ensure that each puppy receives the same level of love and care.
