    We had an absolutely fantastic experience with Roy and Shana from start to finish. They were incredibly accommodating and met us halfway, which made the pickup process smooth and stress-free. Their communication was excellent — they shared great information about the puppy’s care, background and made sure we had all of his records. It was clear that they truly care about their animals and take pride in raising healthy, well-socialized puppies. Our little one came to us happy, clean, and full of personality. We felt confident and prepared thanks to all the guidance they provided. We have another mini dachshund at home at they love each other! We couldn’t be more grateful for the positive experience, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for a responsible, trustworthy place to find their new family member!

    Hensley Homestead Dachshunds are the best breeders ever. After placing a deposit on my sweet little girl, Shana sent me pics of her every week. She kept me updated on everything. I love my sweet baby girl Miss Gracie. Super healthy and loves people. TY so much.

    Shana was an excellent breeder and gave me weekly updates about Brownie until I was able to pick her up. She came home with a great start on training and has adjusted very well to my home. I highly recommend them as a breeder for puppies!

    Roy and Shana are very informative about the pups they breed. They were able to answer any question i had and the over all process was very smooth. They have been available even after the transaction for anything I needed. My family and I are very happy with the new addition to our family.

    From the moment I contacted Shana, I knew I had made the right choice. The whole process was easy and any questions/requests I had were met. Echo has been settling in so well. It shows based on how he’s settled in and how his training is going, that he was in the best care with Shana. I’m so happy to have reached out and who knows, Echo may want a sibling soon lol! Echo went to his first Vet check up on Monday and the Vet was so wowed on how Echo behaved and how perfect he is. Thank you again so much for bringing so much happiness into my family that we didn’t know we needed. 💙🐾🐶
