Individual Dogs/Older Pups Available to Approved Pet Homes
Last Updated 06/04/10 
We occasionally have available for sale older individual dogs which do not fit into our breeding program or who are retired from the show ring.  Some dogs sold as pets are already spayed or neutered but those that are not MUST be spayed or neutered by their new owners before any AKC registration papers will be sent.   For serious inquiries, contact Sandy at (225) 629-5067, or   MRUSSEL1@IX.NETCOM.COM 



PLEASE CONSIDER US, TOO, WHEN LOOKING FOR A LOVING PET.  WE MAY BE OLDER, BUT WE'RE EITHER HOUSE-BROKEN ALREADY, OR MUCH EASIER TO HOUSE-BREAK THAN A TINY PUPPY.  WE LOVE PEOPLE, TRAVEL WELL IN THE CAR, WALK ON LEAD, STAY QUIETLY IN OUR CRATES, AND HAVE HAD ALL OF OUR SHOTS. 

WE CRAVE INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION  - PLEASE GIVE US A HOME  OF OUR OWN!
 
  
"Cosmo" 

Duchwood's Cosmopolitan Man MS 
(Grandgables Claire of Duchwood MS x Ch. Duchwood's Lord Lennox MS) 

Date of Birth:  May 21, 2007  

Cosmo is very friendly guy who is just gorgeous.  I really wish someone would show him as he LOVES dog shows, but he cannot be bred because his bite was originally incorrect.  It has corrected after some baby teeth were pulled and is now a perfect scissors, but I'm afraid he would pass the origianl fault on to his offspring.  Cosmo is bright, clear red and is a medium-sized boy at around 12 lb.  He is crate-trained and leash-trained and well-socialized.  He gets along fine with the other dogs and is very athletic and busy, so would make a good agility/obedience dog.  He is available to an active, loving pet or performance home for $250 and he will be neutered before he leaves here.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.  Litter pedigree 

  "BREEZY"- already spayed
(Ch. Duchwood's Captain Gavin MS x Lisego Nosa Byaki-Buki)

Date of Birth:  June 11, 2009

Breezy is an adorable, VERY BUSY, little girl who only weighs around 8.5 lb.  The photo of her standing was the closest we got to her being still and as you can see, 2 feet are off the ground.  Breezy went to a pet home a few months ago but was crated all day when her owner was at work, received inadequate exercise in the evening, and ended up being a resentful, destructive, little bundle of energy (who can blame her?).  We are glad she was returned to us so we can find her a more appropriate home who understands her need for exercise.  She would be a perfect jogging partner, agility prospect, or would be happy in a home with a yard and another active Dachshund to help wear her out.  She LOVES everyone, loves to travel, and is crate-trained (has never messed in her crate as long as we have had her back - at times crated up to 9 hours at night).  She loves to hunt and will take off to go hunting, so she would also make a good field trial prospect and needs a very secure yard.  This is a delightful little girl who loves to play with other dogs and loves to travel.  She is available to an active, involved pet home for $250.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.
 

        "Jay" 

Admindac's Almond Joy MSCP (10 pts. including 1 major) - has been neutered and had a dental May 2010 

Date of Birth:  March 20, 2005  

Jay is a gorgeous dark chocolate/tan boy with a wonderful temperament.  He was a good show dog but we never finished his championship because of his size.  He loves everyone, young and old, gives kisses freely, and gets along with female dogs and other, non-dominant male dogs.   He weighs around 13 lb. and is a muscular, active, BUSY boy who loves to travel.   I have decided not to pursue chocolates, plus I have several offspring out of him, so he is for sale for $250 to a very special pet home who will give him plenty of love and attention and exercise.  He would make a great family dog as he loves children, and he would be a great performance and therapy dog as he just wants to please.  He has also started hunting so could probably get his FC title, too.  Jaybird is an incredibly neat guy so I am going to be very picky about what home he goes to.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300. 
 

   "Niles" 

Duchwood's Little Niles MS 
(Ch. Dynadaux Aint Jus Whistlin Dixie MS x Duchwood's Little Pixie MS)  

Date of Birth:  September 5, 2002 

Niles is a sweet, friendly boy who keeps getting beaten up by the bigger boys.  He really needs a loving pet home where he won't be intimidated by others.  He is a gorgeous, small boy (weighs around 10.5 lb) who got an infection of unknown origin in one testicle at a very young age.  Despite our best efforts, the testicle was damaged and shrunk in size, so Niles could never be shown.  He was fertile, however, and produced a nice son for us.  He loves people and gets along fine with other friendly dogs.  He is available to a special home for $150 (includes cost of neuter and a dental).  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.

   "KENO" 
Duchwood's Keystone MS
(Admindac's Almond Joy MSCP x Bonlon's Houston Dixie Chique)

Date of Birth:  December 16, 2007

Keno is a dark chocolate/tan doll with dark eyes - so sweet and affectionate.  He just has not turned out for show so he is available as a pet (will be neutered here first) for $250 to a loving pet or performance home.  I think he would be a great agility dog - I have had him doing small jumps and the dog walk and he is always on top of his dog house.  He is eager to please and loves to travel, although he is a little timid at first around strangers and not used to children, so he should go to a home with either no kids or older ones.  Keno gets along fine with the other dogs and is quite playful and active.  This is not a dog for an apartment unless he can go on long walks or jogs several time a day.  He is a muscular boy who weighs around 13 lb.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.
 

  "FINDLEY"   
(Ch. Lisego Nosa Vitamin Yu Ch. Duchwood's Red Flannel Dress MS)   

Date of Birth:  October 9, 2007   

Findley is an adorable boy with a sweet but rather timid personality.  He loves belly rubs!  He's a solid boy who is low to the ground and who weighs around 12 lb.  We're keeping his sister as the show dog, so Findley is available to a pet home for $250 and he will be neutered here, first, before he leaves. He is leash- and crate-trained.  He should go to a home with older children as toddlers scare him.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.

    
"QUINCY" 

Duchwood's Quintessential Pie MS 
(Ch. Duchwood's Count Cameron MS x Duchwood's Mighty Sprite MS) 

Date of Birth:  August 28, 2005 - during Hurrican Katrina 

Quincy has the saddest hound eyes!  He never liked to show and had only one, nondescript litter, so he needs to retire to his own personal lap.  He is a small boy at around 10.5 lb.  He is crate-trained and likes to travel and does not mind walking through crowds, he just does not like any stranger reaching down to pet him.  He is a quiet, more laid back boy, but would like long walks or for someone to throw his ball endlessly.  He dives into the little kiddie pool in the dog yard to retrieve his balls, but he gets picked on by the other boys, so he doesn't get to play retrieve too often.  He gets along fine with other nice dogs but must go to a home with no small children.  Quincy is available for $200 (includes neuter and dental) to a good pet home and shipping to any part of the country is $300.

    "SYLVIE" 
Duchwood's Sylvan Hedonist MS (ch. pts.) 

(Admindac It's Hardly Done x Duchwood's May In Milan MS) 

Date of Birth:  March 20, 2005 

Sylvie is a lovely, light red, 11 lb. girl who we could not finish in the show ring because of her white mismarks.  She has had 2 beautiful litters and now needs a snuggle spot of her own.  She is a very friendly girl who loves everyone and gets along fine with other dogs although she could care less if another dog is around or not.  If you are looking for a jogging partner, this is NOT the dog for you.  Sylvie is a gentle soul, enjoys the finer things in life like a soft bed or lap, and is quite the snuggle-bun.  She would enjoy long walks and a little run through the woods to hunt occasionally, but she is not a very active dog when left to her own devices.  She has started doing well at field trials and could get her field championship if the new owner so desired.  Sylvie is available to a pet home (with children over age 8 if any are present) for $250 (includes cost of spaying and a dental).  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.

         "LAZER" 
Duchwood's Lazy Days MS  

(Ch. Duchwood's Buyonegetonefree MS  x Duchwood Fool's Gold MS)  

Date of Birth:  July 24, 2006  

Lazer has really morphed into a lovely boy with nice front and rear angles, but the pigment around his eyes and nose is brownish rather than black, and he would probably not do well in the show ring because of that.  He is a muscular, medium-sized boy (about 12-13 lb) and is very friendly and outgoing to everyone.  He loves to travel and would make someone a lovely, very affectionate pet.  He is getting picked on by some of the other males, so Lazer needs to find a loving home as a neutered pet for $250.  He is very active and athletic so he would be great performance prospect as well.  He loves to chase balls and to dive into the kiddie pool after them.  This is a very sweet boy who would fit into any relatively active home.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300. 
 

   "Maylee" 
DUCHWOOD'S MAY IN MILAN MS ( champion points) 

(Ch. Duchwood's Red Alert MS x Ch. Applehil Count Your Blessings) 

Date of Birth:  April 26, 2003 

Maylee is a "tweenie" at around 14 lb.  She has 6 champion points but hated dog shows so was never finished.  She is a sweet, affectionate girl who loves cuddle and to travel but who does not like being directly approached on the ground by strangers.  She walks through crowds just fine, though, and gets along great with all of the other dogs.  She would be a good companion for someone with no children or young grandkids.  She is crate-trained and leash-trained and not particularly energetic, so would be a good choice for a less active home.  Maylee is available to a loving pet home for $150 which includes the cost of spaying here first.  Shipping to any part of the country is $300.  She's not getting any attention here and really needs to find a new home.

     "TIMBER"

Duchwood's Good Timber MS
(Duchwood's Ramsey The Rake MS x Ch. Duchwood's Secular Sonnet MS)

Date of Birth:  August 24, 2007

Timber is a truly gorgeous boy with incredible conformation, but he is also a very BIG boy at 15 lb., so we cannot show him successfully although he has some nice class wins at specialties.  He is the sweetest guy with a lovable personality who loves everyone.  I have been doing agility with him and he seems to enjoy it just like his brother, Tango.   He already jumps, and does the tire and the full size dog walk.  He's a big mush puppy who loves to cuddle, too.  I really hate to place him but I just have too many boys.  Timber is avalable to a really special performance home for $350 and will be neutered here first.
