    Michael took such good care of our baby before we got her. One thing we especially loved that he did was get her aquatinted with lots of sounds and textures. It has made her so easy to train. We like to think it also gave her some much needed desensitizing to things - she does great with just about everything and everyone. He also made sure to set us up for success upon bringing her home. He provided a blanket and toy that smelt like home, some of her food, and any info we needed to set her up for success. She is also litter box trained which has greatly helped with our busy schedules. We love our little Ritz so much!

    Michael is awesome!!! He answered every question I had and I had many from the very beginning, he was so patient and answered every question in a timely manner. I am so grateful to have found him and you can definitely see he puts so much time, love, and care into his pups. We’ve had Whiskey for 2 weeks now and we couldn’t be more in love with him! Whiskey is beautiful and has the best personality! He has adjusted so well and had no problem traveling 13 hours back home (Colorado to Arizona). Our first vet visit went extremely well and Whiskey is healthy and thriving! I 100% recommend Lone River Dachshunds and when ready I look forward to getting another dachshund from Michael in the future! Thank you so much Michael!

    Michael was super responsive and answered all the questions I had when getting my first puppy which was ALOT lol ! He reassured us with daily updates and made the entire process so smooth the entire time. He really cares about all his puppies and I couldn't imagine getting my beautiful girl Lylah from anyone else but him! If your thinking about getting a miniature dachshund with a good temperament and have a good experience, then I would 100% highly recommend getting them from him:D
