Certified Good Dog breeders ensure their puppies are healthy and ready for their new homes. Puppies receive the appropriate vaccinations and are dewormed or have a clear fecal exam before they leave. While Ripon Dachshunds hasn’t shared details about their specific health practices yet, we encourage you to reach out to learn more about how they care for their puppies.
We send our puppies home with Initial potty training, Registration, Vet records, Puppy starter kit, and Food & treats.
Crystal offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
We’ll meet at a mutually convenient halfway point to drop off your puppy. Once your application is approved, we’ll coordinate the details for your pick-up day together.
Why Crystal started breeding
My husband and I both grew up with dachshunds. When we got married, we knew that we’d eventually adopt one of our own. Well, our 1 turned into 2, and then our 2 turned into 3, and so and and so forth. We love the breed. We love that our puppies bring so much joy to other families.
