Duffy's is a small hobby kennel about halfway between Albany and Syracuse just off the NYS Thruway (Exit 30).
I have only a few dogs and breed very discriminately. It is very important that the puppies I produce be sound, have good temperaments, and meet the AKC breed standard for a dachshund. I am a member of the Dachshund Club of Greater Syracuse.

Why Dachshunds? Why Duffy's? Well, I had a dachshund/beagle mix that I got over 40 years ago that stole my heart (Duffy). After he passed I knew I would have a dachshund one day but in the meantime I was raising five daughters with my husband, Bill. I also had a full time job as a travel agent so my plate was very full. Finally, the girls started getting older and more independent so I thought it was about time to get that dachshund I had always dreamed of. I went off in search of a smooth, black and tan male puppy. I came home with a wirehaired, black and tan female puppy. Trace was apparently meant to be here because I was hooked!
So began my journey into the wonderful world of purebred dachshunds. Over the past 20+ years, I have met some wonderful people in the dog world that have helped me immensely with their advice, knowledge, stud services, handling services, and friendship - among other things. I continue to learn from these people today and I truly believe they are why I keep coming back for more. Thanks to you all!
