This is our new home, finished in the Winter of 2007. Will update the pictures this next Spring when the landscaping has been completed in the front.


 

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!
