Eric is the king of doxies 👑. I had the pleasure to know eric and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the very first interaction, it was evident that he truly cares about the well-being of their dogs and how to make the experience for the owner an unforgettable one. He was always there and can go above and beyond with so much passion for an excellent customer experience. Happy to know such a kind and honest person.

Eric with Dearhaven Doxie, was so professional, kind hearted, and easy to work with throughout the whole adoption process. He responded promptly anytime we corresponded through the good dog app. Our family went out to his home to meet him and his puppies. The dogs were just beautiful, healthy, and happy. You could truly tell that these animals were apart of a family that loved them. Eric is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in breeding and caring for Doxie’s. We were so happy with our girl (who we named Penny!) my mother in law also met with Eric and adopted a puppy as well. We will continue to recommend Eric with Dearhaven Doxie to anyone we know looking to add a dachshund to their family. Thank you Eric!
