Shawdox Dachshunds (Reg), Champion Bloodlines

Shawdox Dachshunds (Reg), Champion Bloodlines, dachshund breeders in Coffeen, IL, serves Central Illinois near St. Louis. It maintains champion bloodlines and prioritizes health screening protocols recommended for dachshunds, with every adult dog undergoing spinal and cardiac evaluations.

Each puppy is raised indoors in a family setting on its rural property where daily handling, gentle socialization and exposure to various household sights and sounds begin in the first week. Secure outdoor runs and supervised time among cats and children are part of the early enrichment process. Registrations with major kennel clubs ensure clear lineage documentation and adherence to breed standards.

Positive reinforcement guides training, reflecting a belief that confident, well-adjusted dachshunds form the strongest bonds with their families. Many adults earn conformation titles or visit nursing homes for informal therapy, drawing on the breed’s affectionate, alert character. Detailed health records accompany each puppy along with ongoing advice from breeder Lindi Kershaw on nutrition and care.
