Craig And Rhonda Riffey

Craig And Rhonda Riffey are Shih Tzu and Dachshund breeders in Bourbon, IN, serving Marshall County and the South Bend area near Elkhart. They have more than fifteen years of experience and maintain membership in the Shih Tzu Club of America and the Dachshund Club of America, with health testing for hips, patella, eyes and thyroid on all breeding adults.

Their dogs live indoors and enjoy supervised time in a secure outdoor run, while puppies are socialized with gentle handling, basic training and calm household exposure. They focus on balanced temperaments, aiming for affectionate companions that adapt well to family life.

A family-run hobby breeder, they keep detailed records for each litter, offer guidance on puppy care and training, and provide ongoing support to new owners. Reviews often note the clear, thorough communication and the playful, confident nature of the puppies. Early exposure to children and household sounds lays a positive foundation.
