Bringing home a Kindred Dachshunds puppy means welcoming a lifelong family member.

Well-bred miniature dachshunds require a significant emotional and financial investment — both from us as breeders and from you as an owner. We deeply care about every puppy we raise and about the families who trust us.

Our contract clearly outlines expectations on both sides. It protects the puppy, the buyer, and the integrity of our breeding program.

If you are considering a Kindred puppy and have questions about any part of our agreement, we encourage open communication.

This purebred miniature dachshund puppy is sold as a companion pet on Limited Registration and is not sold with breeding rights.

At the time of sale, the puppy is in good health and sound temperament as confirmed by a licensed veterinarian.

Waitlist Fee
A non-refundable waitlist fee of $100 reserves your place for up to 24 months and locks in the current puppy price.

Reservation Fee
A non-refundable reservation fee of $500 secures your selected puppy once the litter is thriving. This amount applies toward the total purchase price.

Final Payment
The remaining balance is due on or before the official go-home date. If transportation is arranged, final payment must be completed prior to travel arrangements.

Convenience Fees
Credit card payments may include processing fees.

The puppy is sold on Limited Registration and may not be bred.

Full Registration (breeding rights) is only granted on a case-by-case basis under a separate written agreement.

Unauthorized breeding will result in $5,000 damages per litter produced.

Buyer must have the puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within 72 hours of pickup.

If a licensed veterinarian declares the puppy unfit for purchase within that period, the puppy must be returned within 48 hours for a full refund.

Failure to complete a vet exam within 72 hours voids this warranty.

This warranty does not cover:
