I'm the breeder behind Dear Dachshunds located in Cape Coral, FL. Our small in-home breeding program is driven by a deep love for dachshunds. Our dogs are not just pets—they are family, living alongside us as part of our everyday lives. We do not have a kennel, ensuring each puppy is raised in a loving, hands-on environment from birth until they leave for their new homes. Our top priority is producing happy, healthy puppies. We currently have champion-lined dogs and imports, and we are continuously enhancing our program with more imports to improve coat quality, aiming for the European style—long, full coats with distinct features like longer ears and a lower ear set. For out-of-state buyers, we offer convenient travel options. We can meet you at RSW Airport in Fort Myers, FL, or PGD in Punta Gorda, FL. Additionally, we can recommend select flight nanny services to safely transport your puppy. These independent services operate separately, and we only suggest those who ensure our puppies travel alone or with their siblings, prioritizing their well-being. Stay connected with us on our socials! However, due to issues with content theft and scammers, our FB page may have fewer updates.
