About clipperdown

Viv started breeding Dachshunds in the late 1960s with her mini smooth, Trundle. During the 80s she bred mini smooths, standard longs and standard wires. In the early 90s, mini wires joined the gang. Throughout the early 2000s, her focus became mini smooths and mini wires until, in 2015, the wonderful “Harriet the Helper” joined the family, and resurrected the passion for standard wires that we still have today.

Viv’s daughter, Meredith, has now taken on Clipperdown Dachshunds in partnership with Amelia … no stranger to the breed - Meredith was practically born in a dachshund whelping kennel and was a winning JHA/YKC handler with her Dachshunds in the 80s!

Kennel Van de Viersenhoeve Partnership

In August 2024, Tinkerbell (Clipperdown Viv’s Legacy) went to join Karin Van Viersen at her kennels in the Netherlands as her first ever Dachshund. Karin was a long-term and very dear friend of Viv, and over the years they both had GBGV from each other. Tinkerbell has already done extremely well in Europe, and we are so grateful to Karin and her family for campaigning her so beautifully.
