Dachshund Kennel

A few weeks later, the first “real” smooth-haired dachshund, Engels Tango, soon called “Bruno“, joined us and we were able to lead him to a number of titles and championships. Bruno was a stroke of luck in every respect, not least because he was the reason for our acquaintance and one may say friendship with his breeder, Brigitte Engel in Wermelskirchen. Unfortunately, both Brigitte and Bruno left us far too early and if there is a breeders heaven, then both are now sitting under the rainbow on the meadow and let the sun shine in their faces.

Certainly, there are many dear people who help us with their advice and sometimes with energetic support, and from whom we still learn a lot. We are indebted to all of you, but especially to Brigitte Engel, whose exceptional experience and excellent breeding performance have always allowed us to profit to a very special degree.

Our goal is not to produce puppies. We want to do our utmost to contribute to the preservation and further development of the breed by breeding healthy, strong dogs with a good temperament. Our dachshunds should be able to fulfill their traditional, albeit increasingly rare, hunting use or their nowadays main tasks as loyal family dogs.

We breed for joy,
but not for fun.
