    Amanda is amazing! She had my guy stairs trained, doggy door trained and almost fully potty trained. She pours her love into the puppies. If she is still breeding when I decide to add a new puppy to the family, I will absolutely be going to her.

    Amanda was the best breeder to work with! She was super attentive through the entire process. I truly enjoyed her communication she was extremely knowledgeable, clear, & super caring. It was a pleasure working together & I’m also super grateful to have been connected with her. Definitely would get another puppy from her in the future 😊

    Working with Amanda was truly a wonderful experience! I expressed interest in one of her gorgeous puppies and she immediately responded with answers to my questions. We even FaceTimed and I got to see my future baby before I made any decisions. The whole experience felt personal and genuine. Amanda truly goes above and beyond to ensure her puppies are healthy and her clients are well-informed and supported. If you’re looking for a responsible, ethical, and kind breeder, Amanda is everything you’d hope for and more. We couldn’t be happier with our new baby and are so grateful to Amanda for bringing such joy into our lives! Highly recommend Amanda and AB Dachshund!

    If I had to describe my experience with Amanda in one word, it would be perfect, and I don’t use that word lightly. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, respectful, and attentive. What truly stood out was the way she cared for the puppies as if they were her own. Our meetup went seamlessly. She provided a thoughtful care package that included toys, puppy food, Heartgard, a blanket, and a dog bed carrying the comforting scents of the puppy’s mom and siblings. She also gave me a detailed folder containing essential information like the feeding schedule, vaccination records, and more. One thing that really speaks volumes to me is that, even after two weeks of having my puppy, I’m still in contact with Amanda. Her continued care and interest show how deeply she loves and is committed to her puppies, even after they’ve gone to their new homes.

    Amanda was the best breeder of any future puppy owners dreams. She was so responsive, answered every question, sent many pictures, and gave us food, toys, and a bed to start us off. She made the process so wonderful and easy. Our little girl has been a dream and so well behaved. She is so healthy and happy. We are already talking about a second dachshund and we will definitely be getting one from AB Dachshund!!

    Amanda from AB Dachshund was amazing and one of the best experiences we have had getting a new puppy! She and her mom love the breed. Amanda kept us updated through out the entire process. Connected us with AKC and gave us so much stuff - toys - blankets JJ and mom slept with, food and even a couple of collars/even a bow tie! He was already trained on using a puppy pad and she sent us home with those as well. As we were mourning the loss of our beloved Jax due to a spinal issue which is common for dachshunds, our new JJ has filled our home with joy and he gets along wonderful with our older rescue chihuahua and a rescue cat. I highly recommend AB Dachshund and I have already had friends and family interested in the next litter that may be coming later this year. Thank you so much Amanda! JJ has filled our home with joy again!
