Dajean Dachshunds. A history and information about the breed.
Shelley's Dajean Kennels have an over 40 year history of breeding top quality dogs. Breeding a couple of Standard Smooth Dachshund litters as a teenager. Shelley then started with Bullmastiffs (achieving Top-Breeder twice and breeding the top winning bitch in the breed, top-winning brother and sister, along with numerous champions and CC winners) we are now concentrating this expertise mainly on smaller breeds, namely Miniature Wire-haired Dachshunds, and after waiting for many years, Norfolk Terriers. We aim to produce quality, good-looking puppies with excellent temperaments and outgoing, friendly personalities. We are breeding for; Type, Temperament and Soundness, believing that all are necessary to produce a healthy, friendly dog thats looks the part and fulfills the need for a companion dog while still capable of performing its original function. Our pups are born and reared in our home in the Norfolk countryside alongside our children and other dogs. They are introduced to the outside world at 6weeks, to meet our livestock and learn to toilet in the right place, this means they are housetrained very easily. If you are looking for a friendly, happy, healthy family dog that still knows what it's job is and looks beautiful too, this is what we are striving to breed. All my dogs live together both indoors and out.
Dachshunds are active dogs, and will take as much exercise as you can give them once adult.They are, however, just as happy curled up on your lap snoozing. they are sociable with other family pets, especially other dachshunds, and are very loyal to their owners. they make keen watchdogs and due to their small size are inexpensive to keep. However it is advised to insure as they can suffer from ivdd (back problems) which can be expensive to fix!
Socialisation is a vital part of training a dachshund. Without this they can prove to be wary of strangers and other dogs. They must be introduced to small children at a young age to be used to having them around.they are a typical hound and are inclined to use their voice! not noted for their obedience, they can be trained with persitence. they like to hunt and can “go deaf” when on a scent.
Wirehairs have harsh body hair, beards and eyebrows, depending on the texture of the coat, which can range from “pinwire” to “hairy” the coat may need to be handstripped 2 to 3 times a year. The most common colours are “Wild Boar” (sometimes called “Brindle” where each hair is striped giving a grizzled effect as opposed to the tiger striped appearance of other brindles), red, black and tan but chocolate and tan, chocolate boar, black and chocolate dapples also occur and are acceptable healthy colours. wires are the most extrovert and active of the dachshund varieties. All miniature dachshunds make good pets if reared and socialised correctly. for someone who wants a small but affectionate companion dog.
