About The Ranch
About Us
Located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest, our ranch has various livestock and other animals that are great for the socialization of our dogs and puppies. It is a short drive to the beach or the mountains, which is perfect for our dogs and active lifestyle. We are a family ran operation, with 3 generations working together to make our program work. With over 20 years' experience raising Dachshunds and Doberman Pinscher's, and 40 years raising livestock, raising puppies has become one of our greatest joys and hobbies. In addition to 40 years experience raising livestock, my personal career in the medical field has given me a great understanding for properly researching and making the best decisions regarding breeding and rearing of our wonderful dogs and puppies. We love getting to share our enthusiasm for the breed with others.
Our Story
Once you've been loved by a Dachshund you'll find you can't live without one. When we were originally searching for a family dog for ourselves, we found it was really hard to find a reputable Dachshund breeder. Since then, our goal has been to find good tempered family pets that also have the traditional Dachshund characteristics and standards. As third generation ranchers we have vast knowledge of what it takes to raise high quality animals, and we are proud of the Dachshunds we raise for the public. Our Dachshund's have exceptional temperaments and traits. At Rafter 7 Ranch Dachshunds, you'll get a buddy for life.
