Meet the breeder

I'm Rhonda S., the breeder behind Simply Happy Dachshunds located in Pauls Valley, OK. We love helping families find the perfect puppy and take pride in being responsible breeders devoted to raising healthy, happy dogs.

Q. & A. with Rhonda

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I got into breeding because my family fell in love with this breed’s personality and loyalty. We decided to raise puppies responsibly so other families could experience that same love and joy.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our puppies are raised right in the middle of our family life. They grow up around children, everyday noise, and lots of love, which helps them transition easily into their new homes. We stay connected with our families and offer support long after the puppies leave.
  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies include miniature and standard sizes. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include longhaired, smooth, and wirehaired coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include piebald, sable, cream, red, black, chocolate, brindle, chocolate and tan, chocolate and cream, black and tan, black and cream, and dapple. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Working with Rhonda was seamless from start to finish. She answered questions immediately and shared experience and expertise about adoption, the breed, care and transport. She is A+. My dachshund is beautiful, socialized and full of love. This is because of Rhonda’s loving care. Thank you Rhonda!

    Rhonda was amazing to work with, I picked one of her older pups, she cared so much about her well being, and wanted to make sure she went to a good home. Rhonda was very open with the questions I had and wanted to make sure I had all the info I could ever want about the pup. I’ve had Opie for about 2 weeks and everything has been seamless and I couldn’t be happier!

    Rhonda was great to work with and our new dachshund puppy is a perfect match for us! The first thing that caught our eye about Rhonda's puppies were their beautiful looks and stunning photos. We loved that Rhonda included a video of her puppies on their profile that allowed us to gauge their personalities a bit more. Rhonda was kind, responsive, and easy to work with. She responded shortly after our application was submitted and was happy to send additional videos of the specific puppy that we were interested in. She even offered to set up a video chat so that we could see the puppy again before making our final decision, and she was willing to answer questions we had about health, history, training exposure, payment, etc. Once we decided that we wanted (needed) the puppy, Rhonda made herself available the following day and was accommodating of our schedule. She arrived on time with our sweet boy and a goody bag full of puppy essentials, which was considerate and appreciated! She was reasonable with our request to minorly amend our contract, and followed up shortly after parting ways to provide additional tips for helping our new puppy adjust to his new home. Our experience with Rhonda was smooth and positive. We couldn't be happier with our sweet boy, and we would definitely consider using Rhonda as a breeder again in the future.
