ALTAN'S

Located in North Carolina USA,
we at Altan's Dachshunds are dedicated to
preserving size, type, structure, temperament and health
of the Miniature Smooth variety
in black/tan and chocolate/tan colors, solid, dappled, and pied.
  
This is not a commercial kennel,
but a well funded, well supported, top class breeding program,
conducted by a professional veterinarian,
producing only a couple of high quality litters per year.

We do not breed to satisfy the market.
We breed to preserve this wonderful breed and pass it onto the next generation.

We do not support commercial mass production of dogs.
We do not support amateur approach to dog breeding.
We advocate for quality and pureness.
Quality of care, pureness of pedigree, quality of breeding, pureness of thought.  

All our dogs are beloved family pets first and foremost,
in addition to being proven, competitive show dogs.
