Maggie L.
Verified owner · Sept. 2025
+4We adopted our mini dachshund puppy from Linda a couple months ago, and the entire experience was wonderful. From the very beginning, Linda was warm, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the breed. She provided detailed information about puppy care, socialization, vaccinations, grooming, and tips for keeping dachshunds safe from back issues. What impressed us most was the level of care Linda puts into raising her puppies. She keeps them in a clean, loving environment and ensures they are well-socialized and prepared for their transition to a new home. Our Lottie girl is happy and healthy. We are so thankful to Linda for working with us through this process and for our new family member! We can't speak highly enough of the breeding program that Linda has in Mac Fam Dachshunds and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dachshund.
