About SignaturesÂ
Our Story
Dogs have been one of the great constants in my life. That love was passed on to my daughter, whose passion for showing dogs first brought us into the show world more than 15 years ago. What began as something we shared together grew into a deep appreciation for well-bred, preservation-bred dogs and the purpose behind the breed standard.
​
Our journey didn’t begin with dachshunds, and my love of dogs has never been limited to one breed. But over the years, miniature longhaired dachshunds captured my heart and ultimately became the focus of Signature. Today, everything I’ve learned through years of breeding and showing goes into thoughtfully planning each generation.
​
Signature remains a small, hands-on program where our dogs are family and our puppies are raised in our home. We breed with purpose not simply to produce puppies, but to preserve the qualities that make the dachshund so special for generations to come.
