Summerhill Dachshunds

Puppies born at Summerhill

Welcome to Summerhill Standard Dachshunds.  Home to Mike and Cathy , and our delightful Dachshund family.  We have been in love with the Dachshund breed for almost 30 years.   Sam #1, our first Dachshund, was our beloved companion who was so enjoyable we had to learn more about this delightful breed.  The more we learned the more we needed to know.  Eventually we got our first Show dog and Summerhill (the name of our neighborhood) was born.    Please enjoy our web site and have fun visiting with our Standard Smooth Dachshunds, our joy.

We are proud members of the Dachshund Club of America  (DCA) and the Basset Hound club of America. (BHCA).   Contacting the parent clubs is the best way to learn or to find  breeders of quality dogs.  We are also members of the Western PA Dachshund Club.

 We are also proud to be AKC Breeders of Merit

We live on 4 acres in beautiful Western PA, with an acre + fenced for the play and exercise of our dogs.   All our dogs live in our home and sometimes allow us on the furniture.   Our dogs are mostly raw fed and we follow a minimal vaccine policy.  We do not use chemicals in, on or around our dogs.  We believe in treating as holistically as possible and have access to a holistic vet practice as well as any number of specialty practices.  As a small show home we take our limited breeding very seriously.  All our dogs are health tested prior to breeding and puppies are vet checked before going to new homes.
