About
Laurjosh....
Laurjosh Dachshunds was started in 1992 with the purchase of Tallavast
Anastacia Elgin, a miniature smooth dachshund. Since that time we have
been selectively breeding miniatures to achieve a type that mirrors the
standard-sized dachshund. Our kennel name is derived from combining the
names of our first two children, Lauren and Joshua. As Murphy's Law
would have it, number three (Micaela) came along and she is actually the
dog lover in the family.
We are located in Shavertown,
Pennsylvania (18708), approx 1.5 hours north of Philadelphia and 2.5 hours west
of New York City. We are committed to producing quality dachshunds with
breed type, soundness (healthy, great temperaments) and balance--dogs
that adhere to the
breed standard
and dogs that are fun to live with.
We are members of the
Dachshund Club of America and
the
National Miniature Dachshund
Club.
In
addition to our dog hobby, we also have a rabbit addiction and recently
took Best In Show with a gorgeous Holland Lop named L&R Flynn who has
now qualified for his Grand Champion designation. Our rabbitry is named
Orchard Hill.
Focus...
Our focus has been the Miniature Smooth Dachshund. However, we
occasionally breed
other varieties including longhair and wire.
Because our schedule
does not allow for attending many shows, we do sell show quality
puppies; usually on a co-ownership basis. We are grateful for the people
who co-own our dogs and show them for us!
