"If there are no dogs in heaven, than when I die I want to go where they went" Will Rogers
"The dog is a gentleman: I hope to go to his heaven, not man's" Mark Twain
"No man can be condemned for owning a dog. As long as he has a dog, he has a friend." Will Rogers
"If you eliminate smoking and gambling, you will be amazed to find that almost all an
Englishman's pleasures can be, and mostly are, shared by his dog" George Bernard Shaw

These are pictures of our gang. If you'd like more in depth information and pictures our dogs, you can go to www.dogster.com. Most of
them have their own web page. Go to "advanced search" on the home page and type in Riley (or Opie, Andi, Prince Von Mocha, etc.) and
Cortez. From any dog's page you can click to the rest of the dog's pages also. You'll learn more about their personalities. Don't forget to leave
them a bone. It's fun!

While our dogs are part of our family, we occasionally consider adopting out an adult if we feel it is in the best interest of the dog. Through our
work with the humane society, we sometimes have rescue dachshunds available.
Prince Von Mocha of Sunset (Mocha) If Mocha looks
familiar to you, it might be because he is frequently featured
on the international Browntrout breed calenders,
appointment books and  Dachshund magazines. His good
looks might have brought him fame, but it is his intelligence
and his extremely calm and loving disposition that has made
him a wonderful pet. Mocha is ten years old and has long
retired from stud service. Mocha adores people, and loves
petting and attention. His wonderful personality which
combines calmness, friendliness and obedience make him an
excellent therapy dog for the elderly - a job which he enjoys
greatly.
Prince Russel of Sunset (Rusty) is a eight year
old long-hair creme and chocolate dapple with
beautiful sky blue eyes. He has been featured on
many dachshund calenders and appointment books.
Rusty is not the sharpest knife in the drawer (my
mom always refers to him as "The Dummy"), but
he's very sweet and loving. He loves his cat and likes
chasing squirrels, and sometimes climbs trees (to get
to the cat or squirrel). He has sired 6 litters and is  
retired. Dusty Rose is his daughter.
Prince W. Wiley Riley of Sunset (Riley) 10 lbs. is
an adorable, six year old small wheaten soft wire hair,
a very beautiful color and coat. He has an extremely
calm and loving disposition, and never seems to get
worked up over anything that happens. Riley is so low
key that he doesn't even get too excited about having a
serious girlfriend, but through lots of encouragement
we have talked him into breeding occasionally.
Everyone that comes over falls in love with Riley.
Andrea Griffith (Andi) 13 lbs.  and
Oppenhiemer Taylor (Opie) 12 lbs.
Beautiful light golden red sister and brother
seen here together. They are four years old,
and a very happy and sweet pair of dogs.
They come from four generations of AKC
champions on both sides - 17 champions in all.
We love their light coat color and their playful
nature.
Opie is a great example of
what a mini-dachshund is
supposed to look like -
absolutely beautiful
conformation and extremely
handsome. He is all muscle
with a great physique. Opie
liked girls more than
anything in the world, but is
now retired. Champ lines.
Andi usually has a squeaky
toy in her mouth, and likes to
pretend it's her baby. Andi is
more of a worrier than her
brother, and likes to make
sure everything is in order.
She is very affectionate. Both
Andi and Opie love people
and other animals - maybe a
little too much. Andi loves to
go out and get "skunked"
everyday. Champ lines.
Beaudachs Little Ricci Bleu (Peanut) 9 lbs. Ricci is
five years old, small in size but big in personality. Peanut
is the most incredible looking red smooth-coat, with the
shiniest eyes that are full of mischief. If there is any
excitment going on, Peanut is usually in the middle of it.
Ricci has a passion for kissing, and will try to stick her
whole head in your mouth if she gets the chance. Peanut
was Miss November on the Dachshunds 2007 Slim
Calender by Browntrout Publishers and is featured
currently on a couple of this year's calenders. Her father
is an AKC champion.
Beaudachs Dashin' Isabell Mojo (Izzy) 12
lbs.
A four year old smooth red dapple girl from
the Beaudachs championship lines. Izzy LOVES
toys and chew bones, and almost always has a
secret stash of her favorite items somewhere in the
playroom. She is fairly independent, and has no
trouble entertaining herself. Champ lines.
Beaudachs Princess Charlene (Charlie) 12 lbs. Do
they come any cuter than this? Charlie is retired from
breeding and is now a grandma, as she is mother to Jody
and Madison. She is five years old, and loves to fetch and
play in the water. She loves anything squeaky (this
includes toys and little puppies). While she can be very
calm and loving, she definitely has a wild streak. During a
barbeque at our house, she stole a lot of hearts. Three
different people tried to sneak off with Charlie as they
were leaving. Champ lines.
Princess Beaudachs Jody of Sunset (Jody) 10
lbs.
Jody is our soft coated wheaten wire hair girl. Jody
is almost two years old and a complete character. She is
active and loves to run and wrestle, enjoys playing in the
water and gives very enthusiastic kisses. It has been fun
watching her grow into a fun-loving adult. Jody is the
daughter of Charlie and Riley. Champ lines.
Princess Becca and Princess Sydney of
Sunset 9 lbs. each
These two beautiful and sweet
long hair girls are both two years old now, very
small and calm, extremely loving gals. Though they
are half-sisters and have a lot of similar
characteristics, they also have their differences.
Sydney is the first one to crawl into any available
lap, while Becca will come in for a quick kiss and
then be off to play. Becca loves the water and will go
all the way under, while Sydney prefers to just get
her feet wet.
Beaudachs Little Grey Goose (Gracie)  
8 lbs.   Gracie is a slightly built one year old
smooth silver dapple very stunner. She has a
playful and happy personality, but she's not
as mischevious as her mom, Ricci Bleu.
Champ lines.
Princess Beaudachs Dusty Rose (Dusty) 12 lbs.
Dusty is a two year old smooth chocolate and tan, we plan
on breeding her with Riley someday in hopes of getting
some adorable chocolate and tan wire pups, and with
Dallas for some chocolate dapples. Champ lines.
Yes, we realize
that Rez isn't a
Dachshund -
or a parent for
that matter -
but she is part
of our family
and helps us
socialize the
babies to
bigger dogs...
..and she often serves as nanny to the little ones.
She loves the babies, and lets them crawl all over
her. Here she is in the playroom teaching some of
the adults how to properly roll over.

Roadside Speckled Alison  & Roadside
Darling Dallas
11 lbs. each
Happy, bouncy, in love with life! Ali and Dallas are
one year old silver dapples with cream marking.
Sweet and very friendly, they have a zest for life and
we're as crazy about them as they are about us.
Princess Beaudachs
Madison  10 lbs.
is the
"wire who wasn't".
Madison is from a litter of
six pups from Charlie and
Riley, and shocked us by
being a smooth pup
rather than a wire like all
her brothers and sisters.
Still, she is a beauty, and
has a special charm that
everyone who meets her
falls for. Champ lines.
Things I've learned from my dogs::

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joy-ride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.
Take naps.
Stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily.
Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you're happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
Be loyal.
Never pretend to be something you're not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them
gently.
Wag more, bark less and enjoy every moment of every day.
