Country Creek Dachshunds

Country Creek Dachshunds, run by Lori Martinson out of Smithville, Tennessee, has been breeding AKC-registered miniature dachshunds since 2014. Smithville sits in the Upper Cumberland region of the state, roughly 60 miles east of Nashville, making it a convenient source for families across Middle Tennessee searching for dachshund puppies in Tennessee.

Lori's connection to the breed goes back nearly five decades — she grew up with a smooth-coat red miniature dachshund and eventually turned that lifelong affection into a focused breeding program. The stated priorities of the program are temperament, conformation, health, and quality over quantity.

A notable specialty of the operation is the development of dilute-colored lines — blues and isabellas — free of color dilution alopecia (CDA), a genetic disorder that affects coat and skin health in many dilute dachshunds. Country Creek is working toward a third generation of dilutes showing no signs of the condition, a multi-year effort aimed at producing cleaner lines within this color family. Puppies leave with current vaccinations, deworming, and a two-year health guarantee. The program has undergone AKC inspection and operates in full compliance with AKC rules and regulations.
