    Army of Dachshunds made my experience of getting my little doxie pups so special. From beginning to the end she was so helpful and informative and responded instantly either any questions I had!! Picking up the puppies was a breeze and she provided everything I needed to take them home. As far as the puppies I am in love and words cannot express how adorable they are. My family and I are deeply grateful for Army of Dachshunds and the amazing joy they brought to us!!

    Working with Donia and Army of Dachshunds was a great experience all around. From the very first contact, she was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate about her dogs. My puppy is beautiful and healthy and has a wonderful temperament. She is very social and eager to learn. I would definitely recommend Army of Dachshunds, Donia does a great job with getting her pups ready be with their new families.

    I never write reviews but we have now purchased two dachshunds from Army of Dachshunds and it has been nothing short than amazing. Coming from a family of veterinarians, Donia is one of the most knowledgable breeders I have every spoken to. We met our Hazel in August of 2024 and the dog was perfectly adjusted to people and to other dogs, she was full of life and extremely healthy, so much so my fiance wanted to get her a friend. We met our newest puppy Millie in May and just like Hazel the dog was perfect. We initially had our concerns that Hazel would be too rough or take some time to warm up to her new friend. Not in the slightest, both dogs had such an incredible upbringing that immediately they were snuggling and playing with absolutely no issues. I can not recommend Donia enough with the excellent dogs she has helped create. We shopped many breeders and none were as responsive, knowledgeable, and caring as Donia. These dogs are extremely healthy which was my only concern and I am so thankful for having found Army of Dachshunds. I recommend her for anyone that is looking for a dachshund.
