Hound's Longhaired Dachshunds of miniature and standard size have been bred since 1975. After 1998 standard size only. The purpose of the breeding program has been to combine beauty and working ability. We have received the Swedish Kennel Club award for dual purpose breeding and the Swedish Dachshund Club award in gold, higher degree, for dual purpose breeding.

In the breeding program we combine European, British and American blood lines.
Since 1998 we also house a number of Whippets, the most easy going breed ever! Sweet, affectionate, attentive and beautiful!

Marie Gadolin got her first Dachshund as a young girl in the early 70's and has been faithful to the breed ever since. Today she is an FCI show judge for Dachshund, Beagle, Tibetan spaniel, Whippet, Borzoi, Afghan hound, Deerhound, Italian greyhound, Greyhound, Spanish greyhound, Irish wolfhound and Saluki. In the breeding she is very involved in health issues, especially disc disease and back x-ray. A large number of Hound's Dachshunds have been examined.

Lydia Gadolin was ten years old when she got a first dog of her own - a Whippet! She competed very successfully in juniorhandling 1999–2005 and is a partner in the Hound's prefix. Lydia is handling our Dachsies and Whippets, sometimes also other breeds. She also enjoys judging juniorhandling.
