And she’s off! The last one of Olive & Milo’s litter. 🥹This may very well be our last litter for awhile now while we prepare to expect our own newest baby. Breeding and having these puppies has been such a wild ride and yet so fulfilling being able give families their own fur besties. Thank you to everyone who has followed along! Until next time. 🫶🏼☺️

About Olive
Introducing our darling girl Olive, the ultimate lap dog! This loyal sweetheart follows us around like a little shadow, always eager to snuggle up for some pets. If you dare to stop, she’ll nudge your hand with her adorable nose to remind you she’s still in need of love! Olive has truly proven herself as the best momma pup, showering her three litters with all the care and affection they could ever dream of. We love to see her legacy continue! 🐶💖
Milo, dad

About Milo
Meet our beloved Milo, the ultimate sweetheart! This gentle guy warms hearts with his playful spirit—after a few enthusiastic barks, of course! He adores playing with kids and can’t resist a good belly rub. But the real star of the show? His ball! Milo would fetch for hours on end if you let him. He’s a simple pup with a big love for life, and we couldn’t be happier to share the joy of producing more fluffy pups just like him! 🐾❤️

We picked our puppy 3 weeks ago ago - this was the most perfect pup! Rachel is a very special breeder. My pup is happy, playful, crate trained & 90 o/o housebroken. We can not praise Rachel’s puppy breeding & training enough - an A plus !!! Thank you I would totally recommend her puppies & breeding style

Rachel was incredible! She is extremely knowledgeable on the breed. Responses were timely, helpful & we now have a new bestfriend! He is healthy and the most loving puppy. I have already referred Hetu Dachshunds to several individuals. Drove up from Miami to get our boy - the best decision!
