Long, low, and level! Meet our beloved dachshunds
At CLOUDKNINE, we pride ourselves on upholding the true standard of the miniature dachshund. Here, we invite you to meet the members of our pack who embody these qualities and are the heart of our breeding program.
Each dog is a beloved pet first, bringing joy and character to our home.
Whisky: Our classic old fashioned
BIS Can CH CLOUDKNINE Classic Old Fashioned, lovingly known as Whisky, is one of our exceptional girls. Born in February of 2024, Whisky has achieved numerous accolades, including Best in Show and on that same day, her Canadian Championship title, showcasing her outstanding breed type and conformation. Whisky ended 2025 as being the #1 Canadian Owner Handled Miniature Smooth Dachshund! Whisky is OFA health tested and CHIC certified. Beyond the show ring, she's known for her love of all toys, playing fetch on her terms and getting the last snuggles of the day from her human slaves before bedtime, making her a truly cherished family member and a cornerstone of our breeding program.
Stella: Our goddess of stars
BPIS MBPIG Can CH CLOUDKNINE Goddess of Stars, or Stella as we affectionately call her, shines brightly in every way. Born in January of 2024, Stella has impressed judges with her grace and conformation, earning Best Puppy in Show at Canada's largest dog show (Alberta Kennel Club - Summer Classic) and Multiple Best Puppy in Group titles, alongside her Canadian Championship status. Stella ended 2025 as being the #2 Canadian Owner Handled Miniature Smooth Dachshund. Stella is OFA health tested and CHIC certified. Her drive for anything food-related and her great help in the kitchen, especially when green peppers or carrots are part of the menu, make her easily persuaded to recall on demand should the words "dinner time" or "cookie" be said aloud. Stella is a joy to live with, embodying the perfect blend of show-quality excellence and loving companionship.
Tiffany: The one that can do no wrong
Tiffany, our retired and surrogate mother to all of our litters. She has always adored being that helping hand with our seasoned or first-time mothers. She lends herself unoquvoactly to all our moms who allow her to and knows her place well in keeping her distance when required. Having said that, she is also eager to ensure pups are warm, clean, and is usually the first to the whelping box if she hears a squeak to ensure everything is okay if mom needs to take a break. We laugh because at the age of 8 years old, she doesn't have a gray hair on her face, and we contribute that to her having never had to worry about a thing in her life. She is one spoiled dog and melts hearts of all those who meet her. She is the epitome of the temperament we STRIVE to have with all our animals.
Our boy: Exciting new addition
We're thrilled about the future of CLOUDKNINE Dachshunds as we prepare to introduce a magnificent new boy to our family and breeding program! We carefully chose to bring in a new bloodline to our program to enhance our good qualities and improve upon others. Our desired traits are strong breed type, good conformation, and an exceptional lineage and pedigree, ensuring he will continue our tradition of excellence. Stay tuned for updates and be the first to meet our upcoming star who will bring his new yet-to-be-determined personality to our home and future litters, contributing to the health, temperament, and breed type of our puppies.
