Donna, along with her husband, made the entire process of bringing our puppy home so easy and special. She went out of her way not only to communicate with us, but also to reassure us as we welcomed a new pup into our family. Donna even helped us arrange the sweetest surprise for our three boys—bringing Praline home as their Christmas gift. Now, eight months later, Praline has been such a wonderful addition to our family. She’s been an amazing pup for our boys, and it’s clear that the love and care Donna puts into her puppies shows through in them. What really stood out to us is that Donna genuinely cares—not just about her puppies, but about the families they’re going to. She turned what could have felt like a simple transaction into a truly meaningful experience. We are so grateful for everything Donna did to make this possible, and we can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking to bring a dachshund into your home, Donna will make it a joyful and unforgettable experience, just as she did for us. Thank you, Donna, for such a wonderful journey and for helping us find our sweet Praline!

I adopted my dog Ginger from Donna three years ago. I was able to pick her up locally in the DC area in an amazing twist of fate. Ginger has been one of the sweetest, healthiest, and well tempered dachshunds I’ve ever owned. My family has owned dachshunds my entire life, so working with Donna and seeing the great work she puts into her breeding has been fantastic.
