Our Story and Key Values

Longwood Lakes Miniature Dappled & Piebald Dachshunds is the result of a lifetime of love and dedication to dogs. Our founder, raised on a ranch in South Florida, began breeding Samoyeds in 1990, followed by Mastiffs, Siberian Huskies, and other breeds. However, the desire to breed dogs remained unfulfilled until the discovery of Dachshunds. After extensive research and a nationwide search, we found the perfect pairs and raised them together to develop lifelong bonds. Our focus on genetic health, temperaments, and overall wellbeing is supported by nutrition, socialization, and love. We believe that dogs are among God's most precious creations and serve as a constant reminder of how we should give of ourselves and our love unconditionally to others.
