    We have been delighted with every aspect of working with Erik from Stone Kennels. He took a solid hour to answer questions about his program and the specific litter and pup we had interest in before we made a deposit. He is purposeful about his program and cares about each pup, it is very clear. After we put the deposit down, communication and delivery were impeccable. Our little guy arrived happy, healthy, on schedule and as expected. And now that he is home for a couple weeks, we couldn't be happier with his personality, health, beauty and how he integrated with our family. 5 star breeder for sure!

    We had a wonderful experience with Stone/Eric, we just adore our happy & healthy little Rustyn! Eric was very responsive with all our questions. I really appreciate the DNA testing he has performed on his dachshunds. Rustyn has been so playful from day one & has done great socializing with people & other dogs.

    I had an excellent experience with Erik. From the very beginning, communication was outstanding. He responded quickly to all of my questions and even took the time to call me for a detailed conversation about the puppy. He was also very flexible when it came to scheduling pickup, working with my availability and making the process stress-free. Beyond that, showing that he genuinely cares about both his puppies and the families they go to.

    Erik was so responsive and TRULY cares about his pups. He’s the only breeder who also wanted to call me to tell me about the personality and temperaments of the dog I was interested in. Great experience and little Billy (previously Chip) is the sweetest guy ever! Everyone keeps telling me he’s the cutest puppy they’ve ever seen! Definitely recommend stone kennels

    Stone was very responsive and knowledgeable. Stone has completed DNA testing for the parent dogs, and he provided wonderful information regarding dachshunds. Our puppy is happy and healthy with such a fun, playful temperament. You can tell that Stone truly cares about breeding for the health and betterment of the breed. If you’re looking to add a dachshund to your family, I would highly recommend Stone Kennels.
