I'm Gwen R., the breeder behind Long Ears and Long Dogs Ranch located in Bigfork, MN. We focus on temperament and conformation first and color second. Our goal is to create dogs that will be partners for a lifetime. We strive for quality in everything that we do. We love spoiling and pampering our dogs, and hope that our puppies' new homes will love and cherish them just as much as we do!

Gwen has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
After buyers complete the application and screening process, Gwen partners with them to find the best puppy match.

“All of our pups are raised in home, are couch and cuddle trained, and are microchipped with lifetime activation before rehoming. We do up to 3 non refundable pre-litter deposits of $200, and have a float list that is our first contact after the 3 prelitter deposits have secured their pups. Once a family picks their puppy for sure, they send the balance on the deposit ($100 additional). If the desired pup is not produced, buyers can pick from the current litter in the order of deposits received or forward their deposit to a future litter for up to 2yrs.”
Gwen may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Gwen offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Gwen directly.
When you pay and communicate on Good Dog, you’re covered by Payment Protection.
You can drive or fly to pick up your puppy from Gwen.

When we originally reached out we were looking for at another pup, but then we we let her know exactly what we were looking for! She had another pup we completely fell in love with! Gwen was super responsive and was able to answer any questions we had. She shared an update of the pup every week leading up to picking her up. I highly recommend Gwen to anybody looking for a healthy, happy, and beautiful pup!

Gwen was responsive, helpful, and great to work with in the adoption of our Jasper. He’s healthy, fun, and an adorable puppy.

Tim H.
Verified owner · Oct. 2026
We were looking for an adult dachshund for adoption and found Good Dog and Gwen. Gwen had a 3 year old female mini that needed to be rehomed. She matched us with Xena. She is an adorable all black beautiful little girl. Gwen was very responsive, answering questions and concerns within minutes. Goog Dog made the process safe and secure by vetting the breeder and securely processing payments. We are very happy that we found Gwen and Xena!

Gwen was very adaptable when we weren’t able to pick up our Annabelle (Ellie) when she was ready. She always kept us updated weekly. Our a year and a half chocolate doxie warmed up to her right away, and now is officially her big sissy 🐾

Gwen has been so wonderful since the beginning. She answered every single one of our questions and was so informative on how she breeds her dogs, best practices for raising our pup, and how to be successful after he came home. We really appreciated the weekly video updates as they made the time we waited fly by. I would fully recommend going with Gwen, and if and when we decide to get another dachshund, she will be where I turn to first.
