We got our dachshund from Elsie in January, and we couldn’t be happier! Our pup, Beans, is a happy, healthy, lovable and friendly almost 6 month old pup! When we first brought him to the vet for his 12 week shots, our vet was almost in shock with how healthy and well cared for he was. Elsie was so kind and caring during our visit/pick up. She welcomed us into her home, allowed us to meet our puppy’s parents, and we even got to meet his siblings and a newborn litter! Elsie cares for her own dogs and each litter with such passion. We are thrilled to have found Elsie through Good Dog and have even recommended her to people looking to find the perfect pup. Thank you Elsie!

Elsie was very dedicated to the care of her pups. She encouraged us to visit her home to see the puppies and the parents. Her dachshunds were very sweet and appeared to be very healthy.

We had such a great experience with Elsie. She was so accommodating with timeframes. We absolutely love our Archie boy. He’s the most perfect, sweet, gentle and loving boy. He loves to play with all his cousins (our family dogs) and the kids. Not to mention he’s such a snuggle bug. We’re so thankful to have him as part of our family. I’d highly recommend Elsie to anyone, she truly loves her puppy’s and takes such good care of her dogs.
