Parent dogs
Ferdie, mom
Dachshund
About Ferdie
Ferdie is beautifully comical. She has a fun, loving, inquisitive personality and all the looks to go with it. She was a bit of a challenging puppy with higher energy than most of our puppies and a desire to find trouble but as she matured she’s become very well behaved and a lot more docile! She’s always been a sweetheart and she adds a wonderful energy to our program.

Lottie, mom
Dachshund
About Lottie
Lottie is so much like her mother (Ronda) but with a more playful/goofy side. She is attentive, charming and jovial! Like her mother she also loves puppies and has been a wonderful big sister to all our puppies and young dogs. She also helps a lot with puppies crate training. Her method of soothing a crying puppy is sitting on them…she takes “baby sitting” very literally… Lottie was from a collaboration breeding with Sunflower dachshunds where her sister Henna now resides and we couldn’t be more pleased with our beautiful girls!

Kip, dad
Dachshund
About Kip
Kip has come all the way from Florida! Which might explain his sunny personality! He has already brought so much life and joy to our program with his positive energy and a zeal to please. We are very grateful to Waverly for allowing us the opportunity to bring Kip in as an upcoming stud.
Indi, mom
Dachshund
About Indi
Indi is the best bed bug! She loves cuddles and being smothered with love but she also has a playful side! One of her favorite things is zooming around as fast as she can and plowing full steam into the dog bed(hence the nickname Indi 500). Indi does have a more reserved/serious side when she’s pouting or unsure about a situation and she is notorious for giving side eyes. We are sure she will make a lasting impression on anyone who meets her!

Prim, mom
Dachshund
About Prim
Prim is exactly like her registered name! She is very lady like, gentle, quiet and endearing. Prim is very bashful and sensitive which usually leads to her piddling in nervousness or excitement. We see it as her way of expressing herself and accept it as one of her cute quirks! Anytime you look at her she will roll or her back and expect endless belly rubs (which can make photography very difficult but we love this about her). Prim is great with puppies just like her sister (Ronda) And she is a wonderful mama! She has a very beautiful long coat for a female dachshund which adds to her elegant appearance and personality.

Chica, mom
Dachshund
About Chica
Chica is just like a peach! She’s sweet, fuzzy and soft! She loves her people and is always up for snuggling. She is very affectionate and likes being carried around like a baby and if you aren’t giving her attention she will bounce nonstop next to you until you do! She is nervous about new people and does not liked to be rushed but once she accepts you she will love you forever.

Ronda, mom
Dachshund
About Ronda
Don’t let her registered name fool you…Ronda is well mannered, amiable and an incredible mama! Ronda has always loved taking care of any puppies, even if they aren’t hers. She’s very patient, empathetic and nurturing. She has helped with puppies crate training, especially when they have had anxiety when starting training. When snuggling in bed she will grab your hand with her paws if you try to stop petting her. Because of her centered and maternal nature Ronda stands as my lead girl in our program and will retire here to continue to be our gentle leader.

+4Brittney was awesome to work with, from quick responses & answering any questions, to the day we got to bring our little guy home. You can tell she really cares about animals & ensures that all the puppies go to the best homes possible. This experience has been so positive from the start! We love our little guy so much, & our other 2 dogs do too! He makes a wonderful addition to our pack :)

I had a wonderful experience working with Brittany. She was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. My puppy was healthy and well-socialized. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, caring breeder.

It was a great experience working with Brittney to get my new puppy! She was very open, honest, and up front about the puppy as well as the process it took to get her home with me. As far as the picking up process goes, she was really willing to work with me due to the distance I had to travel to pick up my puppy. I really appreciated the constant communication and helpful tips she gave me when it came to my puppy’s behavior, food, and products used for the puppy even after taking my puppy home. The loving care, rapport, and connection she has with her dogs is truly amazing and it shows! I’m very thankful to have worked with Brittney and to have found my new best friend!

We had a wonderful experience with Brittney! She is very responsive and easy to work with. Our “Artie” is the sweetest, most laid back pup and will be turning 1yr later this month. He has been a real joy and I highly recommend adopting a puppy from Brittney. We are hoping to adopt another one from Brittney soon!

Brittney was wonderful to work with and kept me updated on my puppy Remy every step of the way! She was very accommodating in our meet up and was even more sweet in person! We couldn't be happier with our new "little man" Remy!! 🐶
