PenDachs Dachshunds

28/07/2023

Look who is 3 today! Happy birthday to PenDachs Not Your Average Bean "Kobe" and his sister Pendachs As The Crow Flies SLDD CGCA TKN "Birdie". Both are loved by my son and his fiance. Hopefully we'll see a birthday photo of sister Patches who lives in VA as well.

Pendachs As The Crow Flies Sldd CGCA TKN "Birdie" born 7-28-2020 is looking for a new sofa and adventures.

Birdie is a wonderful dog. She is completely housebroken with the use of a dog door. She is crate trained, walks well on leash and gets along with other well behaved dogs. She loves people of all ages including young children that know how to treat a dog properly. She will happily sleep crated at night or in bed with her human. She loves to go for walks no matter where they are! Hikes in the woods are especially exciting.

Birdie has a Trick Dog title, her Canine Good Citizen Title, and her Canine Good Citizen Advanced Title. She has been used as a distraction and demo dog at our dog training business. She has a rock solid temperament and is oh so loving.

Birdie has 2 flaws. She will eat rocks if given the chance and if fed before traveling will get car sick. This is manageable and reduced to drooling by skipping a meal prior to travel and feeding upon arrival to the destination.

The ideal home for Birdie would.....

*NOT have a fenced yard or if they do it would be 100% rock free even if she were to dig.
* Feed raw
* Following our reduced vaccine schedule
* Preference given to a family that already has or has had one of our dogs

Birdie has already been spayed!

Cactus (CH Ozo's Sticky Situation Mld CGCA TKI) born 2-27-2018 and Birdie (Pendachs As The Crow Flies Sldd CGCA TKN) born 7-28-2020 are being made available to pet homes. Details below.

Cactus and Birdie are Father/Daughter. They play well together and hang out together but are not needlessly obsessed with one another. I am however requiring that the two go to a home together as I think it's best for Cactus. Cactus has been placed local to me twice and both times was returned after a short period of time (just a few weeks). He wants to be with one of his girls and he wants a yard. He is an easy dog to live with. Honestly I can't think of an easier dog to live with! He has been on many vacations with us. He loves the beach, he loves to hike, he's great in the car, great on leash. He truly does not have any bad habits. High on his wish list is a yard that he can enjoy which means it needs to be fenced (electronic/underground fencing is not acceptable). He happily sleeps crated but would be just as happy to share your bed if you chose. Cactus has earned the following titles, Canine Good Citizen, Canine Good Citizen Advance, Trick Dog Novice, Trick Dog Intermediate, and he is a conformation Champion. He is good with other dogs but big dogs make him nervous. None of my dogs are cat or small pet friendly. Cactus is 20 lbs.

Birdie is an easy dog as well with one exception. She has eaten rocks and required a couple of obstruction surgeries. This is not something she does while out walking. It's an issue if the yard allows access to rocks. She does not bother anything else. She's also housebroken, crate trained, rides well in the car although can be a bit sick to her stomach (mainly just drool) at the start of a trip. She gets along with other dogs but like Cactus isn't crazy about bigger dogs in her space. Birdie is a snuggler and would love a lap to stretch out on. Birdie has earned the following titles, Canine Good Citizen, Canine Good Citizen Advanced, and Trick Dog Novice. Birdie is 21 lbs.

Both of these dogs have been used at my dog training facility to work with other dogs and both are kid friendly with properly behaved kids. They are well trained, well behaved pets. Birdie will be spayed before she is placed. No breeding rights will be given for Cactus. Preference will be given to homes that have now or have had my dogs in the past. They are currently fed a raw diet and are very minimally vaccinated. They are not first come, first serve! Email me with details about your life, how many pets you have, how many people in the house, tell me about your fence, etc. Method of contact preferred is email to [email protected] These dogs are not free and they will not be separated. If you feel you are the right match let me know.

Located in WV but transportation at least part way can be arranged for the right situation.

This is a courtesy posting for a friend. The only information we have is included below. Please use their email for more information.

"Donny is a 5 year old fixed male standard dachshund. He was born in South Korea in July of 2017. Donny is excellent on and off leash and does hold a treat on his nose. Donny is in Clarksville TN but could be transported to WV around Jan 7th. Donny is being rehomed at no fault of his own. He likes his kids but should go to a home with no young children as he's not always accepting of other people's kids. He loves men and women and gets along with rabbits, cats and all other dogs he has met. He has a great recall, loves toys and walks. Donny is a small standard at about 20 lbs. For more information please email [email protected]".

Every once in awhile we have adult dogs available for placement.

Meet Fern, an English Coonhound that Marilyn pulled from the local humane society back in April. Fern was extremely emaciated and in very poor condition when she came to live with us. In the nearly 8 months she has been here she has recovered from Lymes disease, put on some much needed weight, and gained some manners. Fern is now ready to find her forever sofa. We would guess her to be 6-7 years young. She is housebroken, dog door trained, crate trained, and good with other dogs. She loves ALL people but most especially men with beards. Fern enjoys hunting although we suspect her hunting gifts may be only on her terms. She would do best in a home with some property for running and absolutely requires a fenced yard. Although we are located in WV transportation within reason can be arranged. If you're interested in learning more about this lovely girl please send us a message.

Effective immediately following our youngest current litter we will no longer be placing puppies in breeder homes.

Our goal as breeders has always been to better the breed but we are breeding for ourselves first. We strive to improve the lines we work with by studying pedigrees, structure, health, temperament, nutrition, vaccine status and a host of other things. We always keep what we feel is best for ourselves to create the next generation of PenDachs Dachshunds. We find tremendous joy in watching new families embrace their new pet. That cute little puppy that they've waited so long for. Those are exactly the type of homes we want. We do not find joy in worrying that the puppy we may place in a breeders home may have a short upper arm, or hocks that are to long, or lacking ribbing, or any other host of issues that we as breeders nitpick about.

If you are a breeder who has been hoping for a puppy from us we hope you understand that this is just not something we are going to do going forward.

We appreciate your understanding and welcome puppy inquiries from families looking for pets for the sofa or dogs for Rally, Obedience, other dog sports, Therapy dog or Service Dogs!

Thank you, thank you to all those who have given our dogs such amazing homes over the years!! We are blessed to have you as part of our extended family!

This is something everyone should see.

When you get your 8/10 week old puppies, please keep this image in mind. Their bones do not even touch yet. They plod around so cutely with big floppy paws and wobbly movement because their joints are entirely made up of muscle, tendons, ligaments with skin covering. Nothing is fitting tightly together or has a true socket yet.

When you run them excessively or don't restrict their exercise to stop them from overdoing it during this period you don't give them a chance to grow properly. Every big jump or excited bouncing run causes impacts between the bones. In reasonable amounts this is not problematic and is the normal wear and tear that every animal will engage in.

But when you're letting puppy jump up and down off the lounge or bed, take them for long walks/hikes, you are damaging that forming joint. When you let the puppy scramble on tile with no traction you are damaging the joint.

You only get the chance to grow them once. A well built body is something that comes from excellent breeding and a great upbringing-BOTH, not just one.

Once grown you will have the rest of their life to spend playing and engaging in higher impact exercise. So keep it calm while they're still little baby puppies and give the gift that can only be given once.
