    If you’re looking for a breeder who truly sets the standard for excellence, I cannot recommend Blue Bow Kennels highly enough. From our very first conversation, it was clear that this wasn’t just a breeding program—it was a passion rooted in love, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to the breed. Every interaction was professional, thoughtful, and focused on ensuring their puppies were placed in the best possible homes. The communication throughout the process was exceptional. We received updates, photos, and guidance every step of the way, which made us feel connected and confident from the moment we reserved our puppy until the day we brought him home. Our miniature long-haired dapple Dachshund is absolutely beautiful, with a unique blue eye and green eye, but even more impressive is his temperament. He is affectionate, confident, intelligent, and wonderfully well-adjusted. It is obvious that he was raised with incredible care, socialization, and attention from the very beginning. What truly distinguishes Blue Bow Kennels is that their commitment doesn’t end when a puppy goes home. They genuinely care about the health, happiness, and success of every puppy they raise and every family they serve. That kind of integrity and dedication is rare and speaks volumes about the quality of their program. Bringing home our puppy has been one of the best decisions our family has ever made, and we are incredibly grateful to Blue Bow Kennels for making it such a positive experience. We would recommend them wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a healthy, well-bred, and deeply loved Dachshund. Thank you, Blue Bow Kennels, for the care, passion, and excellence you pour into what you do. It truly shows in every puppy you raise. ❤️🐾

    I had an amazing experience with Lorraine. She was knowledgeable, caring, and clearly loves her dogs. Our puppy came healthy, well-socialized, and already adjusting well to our home. She stayed in contact throughout the process and answered all of my questions. I couldn’t be happier with our puppy and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible breeder. These puppies come from a good place and she makes sure they get to go to the right home!😊

    I had such a wonderful experience buying from Blue Bow Kennels, Lorraine made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Providing me with photos, videos and description on his personality, which he has a lot of! I appreciate her being so helpful through the flight nanny process. You can tell how much Lorraine loves all of her dogs and puppies, my pup came home to me with the most amazing temperament and love for other animals, people and babies. He amazes me everyday by how smart he is! He’s a very happy, healthy and spoiled little guy. I get stopped everyday with people asking how they can get one just like him, and I wouldn’t recommend anyone other than Blue Bow Kennels. Best decision of my life. Thanks for everything!
