I'm the breeder behind Wildwynn Dachshunds located in Franklinton, NC. After 40 years of raising, showing and selling top quality welsh ponies, I switched over to my first love which is the longhair dachshund. I am an AKC Breeder of Merit, I train and handle all my dogs myself as well as a few for others. As a veterinary technologist, my dog’s health is top priority as is their happiness. References are abundant and available.
