About Heartland Dachshunds At Heartland Dachshunds, we raise AKC-registered miniature dachshund puppies in Mount Vernon, Illinois. We specialize in both smooth coat and long coat dachshunds, raised in a clean, spacious environment with daily care, socialization, and lots of love.
Our goal? Friendly, healthy puppies with great personalities. Every pup is handled daily and given the best start possible so they grow into confident, loving companions. As a small family-run breeder, we focus on health, temperament, and matching each puppy with the right home. If you're looking for a loyal dachshund to join your family, we'd love to help. Thank you for considering Heartland Dachshunds — we can’t wait to help you welcome your next best friend. |
AKC Registered Dachshunds At Heartland Dachshunds, we take immense pride in our connection with the American Kennel Club (AKC). Every puppy in our breeding program is AKC registered, ensuring their lineage can be traced for generations.
But what does AKC registration mean for your new family member?
When you bring home a puppy from Heartland Dachshunds, you’re not just adopting a pet — you’re joining a legacy of love, care, and quality that’s been nurtured for over two decades. |

28 Years of Loving Dachshunds For nearly three decades, raising dachshunds has been a big part of our lives — and our hearts. What started with a deep love for the breed quickly became a lifelong mission to raise happy, healthy puppies that bring joy to families.
We’ve watched so many pups grow into loyal companions and stayed in touch with many of the families who welcomed them home. Each litter is special to us, and we do everything we can to give them the best possible start. If you’re searching for a dachshund raised with love, care, and experience — we’d love to help you find the one that’s meant for you. |
Our Breeding Philosophy For us, breeding dachshunds is more than a hobby — it’s a calling. We believe God gave us a heart for animals, and we do our best to honor that by raising each puppy with patience, kindness, and integrity.
We don’t rush litters or cut corners. Each one is planned with care, and every puppy is raised in a clean, loving environment where they get daily attention and socialization. We want them to grow up strong, healthy, and full of joy before they ever go to their forever homes. Our goal is simple: to raise dachshunds that bring light and love into the families they join — and to do it in a way that reflects the values we believe in. |

Bring Home a Little Bit of Our Family At Heartland Dachshunds, raising puppies isn’t just a job—it’s part of our family’s daily rhythm. Reba brings her 28+ years of loving experience, but it truly takes all of us—the laughter on the porch during feeding time, the backyard zoomies with tumbling pups, the gentle hands that cuddle during quiet evenings.
Every morning hug, playful backyard session, and evening lullaby is a small piece of love our whole family shares. That shared effort—morning to night—is woven into every tail wag and bright-eyed hello. When you welcome a Heartland pup into your home, you’re inviting in more than a dog—you’re taking home a bit of our family’s heart and home, too. |
