Champions of the Heart

Miniature Dachshunds Raised with Love in Storm Lake, Iowa

My love for Dachshunds began back in 1989 with my first girl, Dixie, the namesake of DixieDox. She was my heart dog and the beginning of a lifelong love for this wonderful breed.

Over the years, I became deeply involved in showing and responsible breeding, and the breed has been a part of my life ever since. When Covid came, I stepped away from the show ring and chose to focus on what I enjoy most, raising healthy, loving companions for wonderful families.

For 35 years, I also owned a very successful grooming shop, which gave me a strong foundation in canine care and health. Now retired, I offer only limited boarding and devote my time to my small, home‑based breeding program. My puppies are raised with care, intention, and lots of love.
