Show Prospects

Our Policy

If you are seeking an AKC Show Prospect, I am happy to help -- but please be aware that you do not have to show in order to get a puppy with full breeding rights. We frequently get breeders seeking AKC Show Prospects without even understanding the breed standard. What you LIKE is very different than what is to breed standard. Russian dachshunds will NOT perform well in the show ring due to being high in leg. Chocolate-based creams and reds are considered a major fault, and piebalds are at a disadvantage as well due to stigma. Piebald Dapples are an automatic DQ and dapples are preferred with no blue eyes and symmetrical patterns. If you are truly seeking an AKC show prospect, then we will pick out your puppy for you based on conformation, NOT colour.


If you contact me seeking an incorrectly-coloured show prospect, I will not be able to help you.

Breed Standard

Please read through the entire breed standard before asking us for a show prospect.

UKC

Consider showing in UKC instead of AKC to start with!
