Our affection for the Miniature Dachshund
began in the early 90's when we brought our first little doxy
puppy into our home and family. My long time admiration
for the notorious "Wiener Dog" led us to pick a cute little
black and tan smoothie girl we named Daffy. Daffy was the feisty little know it all - do it
all, bigger than life doggy that started our love and dedication
to dachshunds. One would NEVER be enough.
Me, being the daughter of a breeder of champion miniature
schnauzers, I grew up in the 70's at CherryParks Kennel and Jack
Onofrio Dog Shows. I admit I was never much of a junior
handler and had zero fondness for arm bands and pooper scoopers!
Still, much to my mothers bewilderment, that allegiance has come
full circle. My enthusiasm for the dachshund is nothing
less than an obsession.
