All of our puppies are raised as members of our family until they’re ready to join yours. Our dogs stole our hearts right from the start and we found ourselves wanting to get more involved.

    It went really great! 😃👍 She stayed in touch and we did a Zoom call. I requested pictures, she sent them. I've got Coda's Vet records along with several toys, treats and puppy shampoo. Coda had his first bath yesterday. Tamra was very professional and knowledgeable about the breed. She answered all my questions before picking Coda up. 10/10 recommend!

    Reno is doing great, he is getting to know our routine and going for walks almost daily. He started chewing a bit but taking him out for walks helps, that and the chew sticks that you provided. Reno and I play fetch and is such a joy to have him as a part of our family.

    Tamra at Mountain Sage Dachshunds was incredibly supportive and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. She was quick to answer all of my questions and demonstrated an extremely high level of expertise regarding the breed. I absolutely loved that she offered to do a Zoom call with me and the puppy, which was such a thoughtful way to connect before pickup. At the time of pickup, Tamra was completely organized, providing all of the necessary paperwork from the vet visit, along with thorough information about this lovely breed. She even sent us home with comfort items, including blankets, treats, and toys, which made the transition so much easier. My sweet girl arrived happy, well-socialized, and healthy—a true testament to the care and dedication at Mountain Sage. I highly recommend Tamra if you are looking for your forever companion!

    Tamra was wonderful helping us get i traduced to our new furbaby into our family. We were set up amazingly getting our pup adjusted and use to being with us. A month and a half in with plenty of focus Kiaya is a good dog. Kiaya has been amazing. Her chill energy and spurts of being rambunctious are great and exactly what we hope for! She loves meeting people and has zero signs of aggression. Just wants to be with her people.

    Tamra helped us so much. She was so sweet and willing to answer all of my questions. We got our puppy on Halloween. Tamra was willing to meet us closer to our house and that was amazing! She sent us home with toys, food, blankets, and so many other items to make Cowboy comfortable with the move. I 100% would recommend Tamra to all of my friends and family.

    We had such a wonderful experience adopting the newest member of our family from Tamra. She was so knowledgeable about dachshunds, answered all of our questions, provided genetic testing for the parents and kept us up to date with weekly pictures. Tamra has also been available after adoption in answering all of our questions as new puppy owners. Our pup, Rumi, has a wonderful disposition- she is curious and has some spunk, but also loves attention, belly rubs and cuddles. This is the best experience we could have asked for and we highly recommend adopting your puppy from Tamra, we will definitely be adopting our next from her!
