Dachshund Universe

Dachshund Universe is a dachshund breeder in Peyton, Colorado, El Paso County and the Pikes Peak region near Colorado Springs. Maureen Quinones follows American Kennel Club guidelines, participates in breed health surveys, and arranges routine health testing and annual veterinary checkups for inherited conditions common to dachshunds.

Puppies are raised in a home environment with early socialization around family routines and gentle handling to encourage confidence and adaptability. Adults live in climate-controlled indoor spaces and enjoy daily outdoor time on secure, fenced grounds to support mobility and muscle tone. The breeding adults are carefully selected for sound structure and balanced temperament, ensuring each litter benefits from stable family integration.

Maureen’s passion for miniature smooth dachshunds grew from her childhood experience on a small farm. Owners often comment on the puppies’ friendly nature, spirited bark, and trainability as they settle into family life.
