One of the joys of owning dogs is the companionship & love they give. Kali is our foundation girl, first champion & now retired show dog. In her retirement she gets to relax & enjoy lazy days at home or socialising with retired humans at mommy's workplace. Here she is sharing her love with some of her most attentive admirers. She makes hearts happy.
How sweet is this wee poppet? To all our Kiwi fans she is waiting to share her spunky personality & cuddles with her forever family. Taking EOI. Inbox us & we will pass your enquiry onto her mum who is mid North Island based.
Happy 1st birthday to Enya & Orion’s pawkids & our sweet Kigelia Blue Star Juniper, aka Ginny.
Happy first birthday Ginny. We love you to the stars & back.
Enjoying Sunday vibes & sunshine...
Sunday morning cuddles for dad.
Predicted -4 tonight. Thank goodness I'm all snuggly & warm with my cuddly blanket.
So loving having the girls all together again. Tonight sweet Juniper, aka Ginny is giving me cuddles.
Snuggled up together again 🥰
We did a quick road to collect our remaining 3 furkids from Scone where they have been in the loving care of Heather& Mark Coles of AAShudna - Miniature Dachshunds for the past 5 months. Thank you both so much for taking wonderful care of the girls. Kali came along for the trip & kept the youngsters under a watchful eye on the way home. Feeling blessed to have all the girls under our roof tonight.
Snuggling my sister...
Kigelia Wind of Change, aka Ayla. The quiet, independent one with a spirit of adventure
Look what has arrived……it’s official
It is with mixed emotions that I write this post.
After a turn of events in November 2023 & a number of unforeseen circumstances, we relocated to Australia (me in March & Grant in May 2024). I was determined that our hard work & efforts regarding our beautifully natured & much loved dachshunds was to continue & it has been a journey so far. There is a lot of time, effort & $$$$ that goes into relocating with 6 furkids in tow & making sure we are legal in Australia as registered pedigree dogs & breeder.
You don't just get registered as a breeder here. I sat an exam which cost $$$ - pretty pleased with a good result, tick✅️ & then needed a breeder property inspection (more $$$), tick✅️.
I was pleased to receive my letter of confirmation this week saying I am now an approved registered breeder in NSW, HOWEVER, we are unable to keep our Kigelia Dachshunds prefix.
We are now to be known as 'TSWALU DACHSHUNDS ". Tswalu means 'new beginnings' & is a Tswana word. Staying with our beloved Africa where our love for its wildlife & heritage is deep rooted, we take our prefix name seriously. Whilst we are very sad to say goodbye to Kigelia (commonly know as the Sausage tree, which is very significant to Grant & I), here is to new beginnings with the same love, care & passion for our dogs & their offspring. We thank our Kigelia extended family for their love & support over the years & welcome you on the Tswalu journey with us.
Update. Wee Peanut has found his forever mom. We are delighted for Debra & Peanut. We are sure they will make beautiful memories together ❤️
Wee Peanut loves his mom Lola very much & is has a heart full of love to give a new family. Taking EOI for Burlane Kennels.
Snug as little bugs in a fancy rug
So happy to see how happy our girls are with all their dachie friends. Thank you so much Heather & Mark, AAShudna - Miniature Dachshunds
Road tripping with mom & dad
Oh how I love you my sweet girl.
Lazy Monday sunbathing.
Wee Peanut is the tiniest little pocket rocket & will be looking for a very special family in a week's time. He has been raised in a very loving family & his human mum is going to cry buckets when he goes to his forever home. Looking for your heart dog?? Taking EOI for lucky last, wee Peanut.
FOUND MY FOREVER HOME, THANK YOU.
My beautiful siblings have found their forever homes but I am still looking for someone to love me forever. I am handsome like my daddy who is a NZ Champion & my mum is a super model for Black Hawk Pet Care & I have a beautiful temperament. Registered with DogsNZ. Taking EIO.
Taking Expressions of Interest for this beautiful registered boy. Clear of PRA, SDMD by parentage. Parents are registered with DogsNZ, health tested & have DNA profiles.
You didn't tell us it was going to be cold in Goulburn mum
Love me tender. So snuggly.
How precious am I ? Taking EOI
Puppy pack time 💕 I love this part of preparing for puppies transition into their new homes. Burlane Kennels are sending their babies home with lovely puppy packs, well done Nicky ! Lucky puppers.
Together with Burlane Kennel, we at Kigelia Dachshunds NZ are very pleased with this litter from Black Hawk puppy pack model below, Lola (when she was a pup) & our handsome NZ CH Leuca.

Eden & Ginny had a wee getaway whilst there brother Leuca was away at a show...Papamoa beach walk 🐾🐾🌊
Loving time with our humans & our mini friends at the KatiKati show weekend....fun walks & sunshine in between shows 🌅
Part of the fun of raising beautiful puppies for special families is putting together the puppy packs that they go home with 🐾💕
