Samantha at Samy’s Dachshund Den was absolutely wonderful to work with. Since I don’t live close by, she was incredibly patient—sending photos, keeping me updated, and answering every question I had. She was always responsive and helpful throughout the entire process.
Once I chose my puppy, Samantha coordinated a convenient pickup time and made everything so easy. Meeting her in person confirmed everything I felt—she is kind, caring, and genuinely loves her dogs. You can truly tell how much she cares for each one.
I am very satisfied with my experience and would definitely purchase from her again. Highly recommend!

Samantha was great to work with. She helped choose the right pup for our family. It’s been at least a month since we got the puppy from her. I still text her questions about the puppy and about the breed and she replies back. Thank you Samantha for your help.
