Q. & A. with Jessica

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into dachshunds after bringing home puppies that were unsocialized and lacked proper care. It took time, patience, and love to help them thrive, and that changed everything for me. I knew I wanted to do things differently. I spent years researching before starting, determined to raise puppies with proper socialization, care, and attention so they begin life confident, loved, and ready

“Placing my puppies in the right homes is one of the most important parts of what I do. I look for loving families who truly understand that a dachshund is not just a pet, but a lifelong companion and a true member of the family. My puppies are raised with a great deal of love and care, so it means everything to me that they go to homes where they will be cherished, protected, and included in everyday life. I appreciate families who are committed to providing a safe home, proper veterinary care, and the time and patience it takes to raise a happy, well adjusted dog. Dachshunds thrive on attention, affection, and being close to their people, so I always hope to place them with those who have the time and heart to give them that kind of life. It also means a lot to me when families stay in touch. I truly love getting updates, pictures, and hearing how my babies are doing as they grow. Once you bring home one of my puppies, you will always be part of the Cherished Dachshunds family. Above all, I want my puppies to grow up surrounded by kindness, stability, and love. Finding those special homes where they will be treasured for years to come is truly the greatest reward.”

    Jessica sent a response to my application within an hour. Gooddog assisted in the process, but I was really impressed with the communication Jessica and I had. She helped me get to know Kamiko, sent videos and photos, and answered all my questions. Now I have Kamiko and thanks to Jessica she is a healthy, loving, sweet little dog. Thank you Jessica and Cherished Dachshunds!❤️❤️
