Meet the breeder

I'm Wendy V., the breeder behind Oakley's Dachshund Ranch located in Plant City, FL. Our dogs are bred for health and temperament. They are raised as part of the family and have plenty of exposure to people and other dogs before they go to their forever homes.

Q. & A. with Wendy

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started with one Dachshund and fell in love with the breed. Then I got another and another... I love their big personalities in little packages. I started working with a local breeder with many years of experience and endless information to help in starting my breeding program.

  • What makes your program special?

    My breeding program is special because all of my dogs are my family. My goal is to produce the healthiest puppies with the best temperament so that more people can enjoy the breed that I love so much.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies have longhaired coats. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include piebald, cream, red, black, chocolate, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    We are very thankful that we were able to do business with Wendy at Oakley's dachshund ranch. Our new baby is absolutely the sweetest thing. The pups are well socialized, given every benefit of vet medical that they need, and are the most gentle and sweetest pups ever.

    Everything went so amazing with Oakley's dachshund ranch. I have been looking into getting a dachshund for months before finally finding someone reliable and so kind and helpful for me. She constantly reassured me and it made me feel so safe being able to pitch my best friend precious. She is the sweetest person and raised the best puppy’s🩷

    Our puppy journey with Oakleys Dachshund Ranch was great. We are very pleased with the experience that Wendy provided. She responded to all our questions and made us feel very comfortable in addition to providing us with detailed information and start up puppy items for a smoother transition . I was impressed with her extra attention to even include a blanket that had scents from the puppy’s family litter. We now have a healthy, beautiful, and good temperament puppy that has brought great joy to our home.

    Wendy was absolutely awesome helping us with our beautiful Lucy. I had looked at several breeders and was totally comfortable with her. She answered all our questions and was very supportive during the whole process. I highly recommend Oakleys.

    Couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We welcomed Olive to our family and have been trying to learn how to have a puppy. Wendy has been checking in on us daily to see how things are going. When Wendy welcomed us into her home, her dogs were extremely well taken care of and loved. Olive has been the sweetest addition to our family. We are so blessed to have had such an incredible experience!

    Wendy was an amazing breeder to work with. She was extremely knowledgeable and very responsive to any question I had.. she was so welcoming and she told me that if I ever have any questions moving forward that she will always be available. That meant a lot to me especially since I’m a first time dog owner. She had the most adorable lineup of dogs at her house as well which was an added bonus. I am so so happy with my puppy!! I highly recommend Wendy as your next breeder. Oh, and she gives the cutest puppy goodie bag before she sends you off! So so sweet and if I get another daschund (which is very likely), I’ll be going to her.
