Our Breeding Philosophy

At Lakeshore Dachshunds, we believe that great puppies start with great parents. Every dog in our program is carefully selected for health, temperament, and adherence to the AKC breed standard.

Our dogs live in our home as family members — not in kennels. They are socialized daily with children, other animals, and visitors, which produces confident, well-adjusted puppies.

Health Testing

Before any dog enters our breeding program, they undergo comprehensive health screening including:

  • PRA (Progressive Retinal Atrophy) genetic testing
  • IVDD risk assessment
  • DM (Degenerative Myelopathy) screening
  • Full panel bloodwork
  • OFA certification

We believe transparency builds trust. We are happy to share health test results for any of our dogs upon request.

Health Tested

Every Parent, Every Test

We go above and beyond the minimum requirements. Our comprehensive testing protocol means you can bring your puppy home with complete peace of mind.
