    I found Tammy on Good Dog, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her and her dachshunds. From the very first interaction, she was so kind and attentive, making the entire process seamless and enjoyable. I’ve met a lot of dachshunds over the years, but hers are truly something special—by far the most well-behaved I’ve ever encountered. I’ll admit, I was nervous about the possibility of ending up with a yappy dog (despite my heavy research on the breed), but our little guy has completely shattered every stereotype. He was shy when I first brought him home, taking a couple of weeks to really come out of his shell, but once he did, his sweet personality truly blossomed. He bonded beautifully with our older golden retriever, Maezie, and, to my surprise and delight, loves playing with our cat. If you’re considering getting a dachshund, I couldn’t recommend Tammy’s babies enough. We feel so lucky to have found her, and honestly, I can’t imagine going anywhere else in the future. Our boy has brought so much joy into our lives, and we’re forever grateful!

    Tammy created a 10/10 experience for pairing us with our perfect puppy. She was incredibly responsive, very knowledgeable, and it was crystal clear she cares so well for her babies! She made the process so smooth and was incredibly accommodating. Leading up to pickup, she sent over videos for us to check on our pup and day of, prepared us SO well with our little boys favorite toys, mama blanket, food and more! We were flying and she went above and beyond to make sure our travel experience was easy with our new puppy. If you’re ever even considering getting a dachshund puppy, PLEASE do yourself the favor and work with Tammy at Bryant’s Babies. We’re so lucky to have our curious and happy puppy and can’t thank her enough for all of her help! ❤️

    I loved getting to work with Tammy. She was very helpful and eased all of my worries that she was not a scam. It was easy to schedule pick up and she was very knowledgeable and explained how to care for a puppy. She made sure I knew about the breed and that I had some goodies and blankets for him to take home as well!

    Tammy is great! Her dachshunds are beautiful, and she’s incredibly kind, helpful, and communicative. She gives weekly updates before you finally get to meet your puppy and provides thorough information and paperwork. So glad to have met our little guy through her. Highly recommend!
