They are temperament tested, pass vet health exams, and have to pass genetic testing before they will be added to our breeding program. We want to produce healthy and good-tempered babies.

We could not be happier with our new puppy and the efficient and kind help we received from the Johnsons! My daughter has wanted a mini dapple dachshund for a long time now and the Johnsons helped us get her one for her birthday. I contacted them one morning about a puppy we saw and they were available that day! They even met us at Petsmart to save us some time since we had a bit of travel. We love Winnie so much and she’s doing so well with our other two dogs. I highly recommend the Johnsons! We are so thankful for them.

We had such a wonderful experience working with Laur`en! She was amazing throughout the entire process, and we couldn’t be happier with our sweet Duke. He has been an incredible puppy from the moment we brought him home. He has slept through the night in his kennel since day one and is so well-behaved—or at least as well-behaved as a puppy can be! He has the sweetest personality and has fit into our family so perfectly. We are so thankful for Laur`en and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, well-loved puppy!

We had a wonderful experience with Lauren and Johnson Family Paws. Lauren was friendly, responsive, and made the entire process easy from start to finish. She kept us informed, answered our questions, and it was clear how much she cares about her puppies. Our little girl has been such a great addition to our family, and we couldn’t be happier with her. I would absolutely recommend Johnson Family Paws to anyone looking for a puppy.

My experience was with so good. Lauren is a great breeder. I honestly made the decision to get my puppy so fast and she was so helpful, answered all of my questions, and responded fast. She still helps me with my questions right now as well. My puppy is really good, he already knew how to use the bathroom outside. We barely ever have incidents in the house, and he’s very quiet for his breed.

Laurén was so wonderful to work with. Her and her husband were very welcoming and have shown they really care about their puppies! She answered all our questions, had all the paper work ready, and gave us a starter pack of stuff for our little guy. We are so grateful to have a new addition to our family🥰

Lauren was so helpful! I was matched with the most perfect, amazing puppy that I could have possibly imagined! He fits my lifestyle so well! The interview process went so smooth, and Lauren made picking him up easy and stress free! I love this little guy so much already!
