Meet the breeder

I'm the breeder behind Ripley Hill located in Scott, NY. We’re a home-based breeder of Dachshunds who love showing our dogs in the daytime just as much as cuddling with them at night. I do not breed my dogs until they are finished showing. My dogs are part of my family and have access to the whole house and yard. I am dedicated to placing my puppies with the perfect families!

Terri’s experience

  • About Terri

    I love dogs, horses, my family, and my friends. I enjoy showing both dogs and horses. I am the Vice President of the Dachshund Club of Greater Syracuse. I also own Dobermans, but I don't breed them.

  • What makes Terri’s program special

    I only breed dogs with good top lines and heritage. They must demonstrate good movement, front, and have finished showing. Temperament is also important. I am committed to only breeding dogs that meet these strict guidelines for quality that we have deemed appropriate to improving this wonderful breed. I am dedicated to placing pups into perfect homes.
