    I couldn’t be happier with my experience getting my dachshund puppy from Danielle! From the very beginning, she was kind, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer my questions. It was obvious that she genuinely cares about her dogs and puts a lot of time and effort into raising healthy, well-socialized puppies. My puppy came home happy, healthy, and has the sweetest personality. He’s confident, playful, incredibly affectionate, and has adjusted so well to our home. You can tell he was raised with love and care from day one. Throughout the entire process, Danielle was professional, transparent, and kept me updated, which made the experience stress-free. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dachshund from a breeder who truly prioritizes the health and well-being of their puppies. Thank you, Danielle, for giving me my best friend! I couldn’t imagine life without my little boy, and I’m so grateful for the wonderful experience.

    Danielle was awesome to work with while getting my boy from her! She was super responsive, provided much clarity on any question I had (since it’s been quite a long time since I’ve had a pup), and was extremely flexible when it came down to finally getting him. I would 100% recommend you check her out if you’re browsing and on the fence. Our boy (Chewie) was and is so happy and social “right out of the box”. Not to mention he’s extremely cute. He’s got very good genetics and I could tell by just the picture he was going to be a beautiful dog. He shocked me when I saw him because he’s more than I imagined. His personality is awesome and I know that Danielle had everything to do with that. She would send me photos or videos periodically throughout the waiting period (for the pups to turn 8 weeks old). Always personalized to your new companion. If and when we look for another weenie to add to the family, I certainly will be reaching back out. Thanks for the hard work that you do, Danielle!

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
