    I am very grateful that I stumbled across Vicki and my sweet little Sugar. At first, I was very nervous buying from a breeder online because I didn't understand the process very well when I reached out to Vicki, I asked for a little bit more information about sugar and her breed. Vicki was able to give me lots of helpful insight. Whenever I decided that sugar was the one Vicki was able to arrange a meeting with me for the next day. When I arrived to the meeting spot, Sugar was freshly bathed. Vicki was able to share more about her and provided a little start up of food, a snuggle puppy, and washable puppy pad. Now Sugar is settling in with her two kitty cat friends and shes a little bundle of joy. At her first vet appointment she was deemed healthy. Sugar is 13 weeks old now and learning a lot. We are still working on potty training but she is doing well. I am so grateful to have my Sugar.

    Vicki was very knowledgeable about the breed and gave you great information on the puppies. She was very kind to work with as well as very easy to talk to when I had any questions. I think that she is perfect to get puppies from.

    Vicki was amazing! She was quick to respond to any questions I had and sent updates throughout the process. I was able to meet her and our new puppy at the airport to bring him home. Our sweet Bentley is not only a handsome guy, but he also has the best demeanor.

    Working with Vicki to adopt our new miniature dachshund was a wonderful experience. From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive, providing regular updates, photos, and videos so we could watch our puppy grow. She patiently answered all of my questions and made me feel confident every step of the way. It's been a little over two weeks since little Paris (formerly Snickers) joined our family, and we are completely in love with him. He has been a perfect addition to our home, and we're so grateful to Vicki for helping make the adoption process such a positive experience. I highly recommend Vicki and Doxie Waggin Tails to anyone considering adding a dachshund to their family. We couldn't be happier with our experience!

    Vicki did a great job of being quick to answer my questions and really made me feel at ease as I navigated my new puppy! Maverick has been the best addition to me and my partner’s life! He’s the sweetest and already is so smart. He’s catching on to some of our training so far for just around 2 months old! You can tell this breeder really cares about her puppies and the progress they make. 😊 I have gotten so many compliments on Maverick and how sweet he is.
