We always have our dachshunds welfare foremost in our mind when we are placing our dachshunds. We ask these questions of you BEFORE they are placed, to make sure that the correct dachshund will be placed with the right family. I know that you will agree their welfare must be my first and foremost consideration when placing them. Please answer all questions and return to glatour@dachshundpups.com for consideration.
