Want to see what its like owning a Dachshund? I'll let you borrow Koi for a week!!!

Aside from that, thats crazy. Instead of accusing you they should have answered your questions.

TO answer you question:
From experience, I have owned two dachshund mixes. The first one was from a family with dogs that weren't health tested and so forth. Sakura, Ended up dying at the age of 8 with no prior heath issues. She just got old.

Now I have Koi who is a mix of Min Pin and Dachshund mix. She is from two dogs who where papered and health tested and showed. She will possibly have issues with her knees, OCD and terrible anxiety.

So in my case It doesn't matter where you get the dog from. Breeder or shelter wont make much of a difference.
