    Jana is incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, compassionate, and amazing to work with. She keeps you updated with pictures and messages about how your pup is doing. As you prepare to bring your pup home, she is helpful with answering any questions. I had a wonderful experience with Jana and brought home such a handsome boy with a blossoming personality. It had been so fun to stay connected with Jana and sharing updates even now that our boy is home.

    Jana was wonderful to work with!! Our family could not be happier with the puppy we got from her dachshund family! Jana was so attentive to sending updates of the puppy throughout the waiting process. She would send photos without having to ask which made it so exciting to look forward to getting the puppy. Jana was always willing to take time to answer questions. When it was time to get the puppy, Jana was very knowledgeable on raising puppies and provided lots of great information! We are so thankful for our little dachshund puppy! Our puppy has a wonderful demeanor and is so loved. We know Jana was the foundation for making that happen! Thank you, Jana!!

    Jana is my favorite breeder ever! We love our miniature dachshund puppy, Olive! She is adjusting really well and it’s obvious she was loved in Jana’s care! The vet records and packet on recommended care for Olive was beyond helpful, when newly caring for Olive and starting her at our vet in NY. Jana brought Olive to the airport for us so we could bring her home without driving to Michigan and it was overall an easy, good experience. She arranged for all of the proper vet documentation also. She has answered our questions and been extremely helpful. Our mini sausage is very healthy and we love her so much. If/when we get another doxie we are ABSOLUTELY going back to Jana at Winzig Ranch in Michigan.

    I began my search for Zoe on Gooddog. Com. While scrolling through all the beautiful puppies, Mouse popped up! I fell in love with her eyes! I immediately contacted Jana who was so helpful in answering all my questions. She was 4 weeks old! Through the entire process Jana kept me informed of her progress. She started calling her Zoe to get her use to her name. She sent pictures, videos and we even face timed! It was such a joy dealing with Jana and now I have Zoe in my life! Thank you Jana!
