Meet the breeder

I'm Jennyse V., the breeder behind Wonder Weenies located in Salem, OR. Wonder Weenies is a family-based program in Salem, Oregon, raising AKC-registered miniature dachshunds. We focus on health, socialization, and proper temperament from day one. Our dogs are beloved family members first, and we’re dedicated to connecting you with the perfect wiener dog for your home.

Q. & A. with Jennyse

  • Why did you start breeding?

    It started with one dachshund (doesn’t it always?)—and quickly became a love affair with the breed’s personality, loyalty, and hilarity. After helping a friend’s breeding program, we got hooked on raising happy, healthy pups. Now we proudly raise and whelp our own litters with the same care.

  • What makes your program special?

    Wonder Weenies is ALL about health, temperament, and raising pups ready to thrive in family life. Every puppy is raised in our home with love, socialization, and early training. We believe in transparency, lifelong breeder support, and only breeding dogs who meet the highest health standards.

  • What are the different breed sizes in your program?

    Our puppies are miniature size. Sizes will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • What are the different breed coat types in your program?

    Our puppies include smooth and longhaired coat varieties. Coat types may vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    This was our first time going through Good Dog so we were nervous. Jenny helped us make sure the entire thing was a breeze. It was so wonderful seeing weekly updates on how our little pup was growing. She was very patient, kind, and accommodating for us. We could not be happier with our precious little Penny. She's a sweet, robust little gremlin. Perfect for our family. ♡

    Jennyse has been responsive to my inquiries, provided pictures and videos when requested in addition to her regular posting, and set me up with a small puppy bag of goodies to get Poncho set up. I have a King Shepherd, Ukiah, and was concerned the puppy might be afraid. That has not been the case. While he is cautious, he is by no means afraid and does try to interact with Ukiah. This puppy is well socialized with people and other animals which was very important to me. A timid animal in my home would not be a good match. I am very pleased with this little guy and looking forward to the future fun to be had.
