Pepper Bio
Pepper aka Pep is a spunky, sweet, loving black/tan girly that was a production of a breed down and weighs 13.5 lbs. Pepper lives with us and her mother Nyxie. Pepper is her mother through and through not only in personality but in conformation. Pepper is our foundation bitch of our program so graciously gifted/shared with us by her breeder Kathleen Frizzell (Proud Lake Dachshunds of MI) and her other co-owner Shelly Mills (Merrywitch Dachshunds). Pepper is halfway to her AKC Championship currently, and will be exploring her natural dachshund abilities in the field and at earth dog events in 2026.
