Eukypark - Dachshund Standard Smooth Haired - Ulverstone Tasmania

Dachshund Dog Breeder - Ulverstone, TAS

Eukypark Dachshunds started in the early nineties breeding and showing the standard longhairs, in the early 2000's we had our first standard smooth litter and have been breeding and showing these since then. Over these years we have had much success in the show ring both with Australian and overseas judges. We have incorporated lines from America the UK and Finland in with our own lines.

All our breeding stock are back x-rayed for calcifications (IVDD) of the spine these x-rays are done between the age of 24 mths - 36 mths our x-ray are sent to Finland for reading. IVDD can be genetic so we do this so we know what we are breeding to what, this will not stop all problems but as responsible breeders we think this is a start.

Our dachshunds first and foremost are part of our family and raised this way in a loving home environment.

We do not sell any of our puppies or older dachshunds for breeding.

Placement & matching

Q. Is making sure your puppies go to the right homes a priority? How do you ensure they are placed in loving, responsible homes?

A. Yes.This is top of the list to find the right loving and caring forever home for the puppies. I always like it if people have done their research on dachshunds to make sure they know a little about this breed before they commit to a puppy. I also ask all the relevant questions that I think are necessary to looking after and caring for a dachshund.

Q. Do you have any of the following: conditions of sale, health guarantee or warranty, de-sexing agreement, a buyer questionnaire, verbal or personal interview?

A. Yes.If any of our puppies buyers are not satisfied with their puppy they are always welcome to return it. We do like to meet the prospective buyers if possible, but if not I do have a few questions I like to ask them.

Ongoing support

Q. Do you offer ongoing support?

A. Yes.Yes our support is for the life of any dachshund that we have brought into this world. Phone number and email address is provided for this.

Q. Do you assist the buyer with re-homing an animal that was purchased from you if they are unable to keep it?

A. Yes.This is a must as we always say that we are responsible for any of our dachshunds for life.
