    Patty was the most excellent breeder you could ask to work with. She was super responsive, very engaging, and definitely cared a lot about each and every puppy she had in her household. Patty has great parent pups, and great areas of enrichment for each litter of puppies. She consistently sent videos or photos of our specific puppy to us multiple times a week, which is just so much fun to watch our puppy grow!! overall the puppy that we took home was already well socialized and adjusted as well as nearly potty trained, which was a huge plus! Thank you so much, Patty. We love our girl so much!

    We can’t speak enough of how Dottie/Prancer has changed our life and daily schedule. She is the most joyous puppy, dancing and prancing all around. The prancing reminds us of a baby goat hopping around. Prancer fits in our lives perfectly! During our loss of Vixen, we felt emptiness. Now Prancer is quickly supporting us to overcome our loss, especially Dasher, he was so depressed when Vixen passed away. Prancer has lifted him up to overcome his depression. Prancer is so full of life and enjoyment to all of us. We really appreciate your time to work with us and offer our gratitude to you. We also are very thankful for professional protocol for providing a way to help us receive this precious little girl. Regards, Ed, Santa, Dasher and Prancer

    What a wonderful and easy experience dealing with Patricia! She always kept me up to date on how the pup was doing and send me pictures and videos! Pick up was smooth and easy as well! The lil guy is doing great and loving his sister. I highly recommend 8 Dach Army Mini Doxies!

    Patricia was great to work with! Hazel was our first family dog and Patricia answered all our questions and was accommodating to our schedule. Hazel is so cute and healthy and has been a great addition to our family.

    If you're looking for a beautiful puppy, I highly recommend Patricia and her husband. Patricia was so sweet and kind, along with her husband and they made this adoption experience the best! It took a week before I could fly out and Patricia sent me photos and videos everyday. I love my new puppy and am truly grateful to God and Patricia and Javier. Thank you so much!!

    Patricia and her husband were so sweet and I know she loves all the puppies….she was happy Lulu was going to have a great home! Lulu joined Jackson … also a long-haired mini dachshund who is 18 months old and they are best friends already! She is the sweetest little girl we could’ve ever hoped for noon if I ever got another puppy I would be coming back to Patricia for absolutely sure. She kept me in touch and kept pictures coming. Let me know what the vet had to say and it was just all a really great experience. Thank you so much.
