  • Dianne at Dachkin Miniature Dachshunds is a fantastic breeder - she's science based, caring, delivers the pup to you along with a box of toys, treats, food, bowls and their favourite blanket. Dashie (Dashimo) is a calm and VERY friendly little boy, has no fear, lots of curiosity and playfulness, goes to sleep in nanoseconds in the car.

  • Thank you Dianne for making it such a beautiful experience when it came to picking the right puppy for our son. There were no questions you couldn’t answer and did everything possible to make sure we were happy with everything - even picking up Penny all went so smoothly. And Penny is such a beautiful little girl, she never leaves my son's side - so caring and loving with him. I can say they are the best of friends. We couldn’t have got a better little girl if we tried to. Thank you to you because you made this all possible. She has the best personality and is just beautiful - such a cute little girl - and as she has gotten older she hasn’t changed at all, only got more love for us all. We just love her so so much and want to thank you again because you made this all possible. You made my son's dreams come true ❤️

  • Adopting from Dianne has been an incredibly rewarding experience. From the moment I spoke to Dianne, I was impressed by her commitment to ethical practices and the well-being of her miniature dachshunds. Mila quickly became a part of our family. She is healthy, well-socialised, and has a wonderful temperament. Dianne always takes the time to answer all of my questions and offers valuable advice on training and care. It is well shown how much Dianne cares about the health and happiness of all her puppies, even after they have started their journey with a new family.

  • Dianne is a wonderful caring breeder. Dianne made a special trip for our kelpie to meet Daphne to see if they liked each other and then arranged to deliver Daphne later in the week. We received with Daphne comprehensive care guidelines as well as toys, food, a beautiful collar and lead and many other things. Dianne was very organised and easy to deal with. The best part is that we have a fabulous dappled long haired dachshund who loves to lie in the sun, snuggle and be carried around. She is such a beautiful loving dog, we can’t imagine life without her. Any dachshund from Dianne will be a beautiful dog who has been well cared for and ready for their forever home.

  • We are so pleased we found Dianne and her beautiful dachshunds. We adopted Benedict (Benny) in July and found the process seamless. Dianne took the time to get to know us and was helpful in answering questions and giving us advice. Benny is a very handsome dog with an absolutely gorgeous nature and I thank Dianne for her love and care for the puppies and dogs that are in her care.

  • We decided to look for a little member to add to our family and when we saw Theodore our hearts melted. He was perfect in every way. Dianne was incredible from the get go providing us with everything we needed to make the magic puppy delivery happen! We were slightly unsure about the traveling situation as we live in different states but everything was seamless and smooth thanks to Dianne. Theodore is such a great little man and he fits into our family so well. He has been great to train and easy to love. We get so many compliments on his great manners and lovely appearance whenever we leave the house. We are very pleased with Dianne’s hard work with the puppies she raises and couldn’t thank her enough for the beautiful little gift that is Theo.

  • Wilson joined our family in August and like his Uncle Billy (our daughter-in-law and son's puppy) he has a gentle, loving nature and fun personality. This is such a reflection of his parentage and the love and care Dianne and family have given him for the first few months of life. He's a beautiful shade of cream and melts hearts wherever we go, so be prepared for the oohs and ahhhs, if you welcome a mini dachshund into your family. Thankyou Dianne, it's been an absolute pleaseure and little Wills has brought us so much joy.

  • Working with Dianne and Dachkin has been wonderful! Dianne is open to silly questions, and really eased my anxiety for my first dog. She was so helpful and made the transition for both Gatsby and I really seamless. Gatsby (previously Ollie) is the cutest thing I've ever seen, he's such a calm dog and he's the biggest cuddler ever! All he wants is to be held. He's so sweet with people, and he's a self proclaimed "Ladies Man" as he makes everyone fall in love with him. He is really easy going and he is such a happy puppy. Just always wants to be around people!
