Desert Horizon Aussie's And Dachshund's

Desert Horizon Aussie's and Dachshund's raises both Australian shepherds and miniature dachshunds in Fredonia, Arizona, a small town in the northern part of the state roughly two hours north of Flagstaff. Mary and Dave Gesser run the program together, with Dave also working as a wildland firefighter.

Both breeds are kept as indoor family pets, and all dogs in the program were raised from puppies by the Gessers themselves. The Australian shepherds are registered with AKC and are also eligible for ASDR and MASCA registration, and the miniature dachshunds carry AKC registration as well. Puppies leave with genetic testing, a health guarantee, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipping, and early potty and kennel training already underway.

For those searching for Australian shepherd puppies in Arizona or AKC miniature dachshunds in the northern part of the state, the program reflects a household where the dogs are genuinely woven into daily life — accompanying the family on camping and hiking trips and growing up around grandchildren and other animals. The Gessers also maintain an informational page on IVDD specifically for dachshund owners, reflecting an attention to breed-specific health awareness.
