Hi Jake and Josh! I wanted to give you an update after several days with the pup! I have been so impressed with how relaxed and sweet she is. I’ve never seen a puppy of any kind that is so laid back and friendly up front! We have gone out on several walks (her in a bag) and she has been doing great getting used to the sights and sounds of SF. She has met some of my friends as well and is very happy to meet new people and be held by them. As you said, the first few days she wasn’t into eating her kibble without the appetite stimulant. I would say that by Friday she started showing interest in treats (her kibble) as a positive reinforcement. She was very mellow that first day but by halfway through Wed her spunk and active personality has come through! She loves to play and run around. I have a couple of chewy toys for her but she also likes an old t-shirt and socks. She sleeps just as hard as she plays too. I got an X-pen for her, so we play there a lot. When I have to leave the apartment for a minute to do something, she has been pretty good in the X-pen. Sometimes she cries a bit and others it’s like I never left. She definitely likes to see me/be near me pretty much at all times, unless she is sniffing around! She has been an excellent night-time sleeper too! She has been going to bed around 9/10 pm or so and wakes up between 5-6:30 am, sometimes sleeps through the night, and other times she will wake me up once in the middle of the night. She figured out how to use the bathroom on the potty pads very quickly and had no problem with that which was also a pleasant surprise to me! I will say she has been quite bitey on skin and fingers, which is of course normal for puppies, but do you have any best practices for that? As for her coloring- I would say she has maybe gotten a tad lighter on the top of her head. I’ll have to look at some photos from last week. She has been shedding a bit! Thank you so much!

Our new pups (Elliot & Olivia) are doing great. We are having a blast. She will have her eye and spay surgery in July. We are so grateful to you for giving us a loving home again.

Hi Jake & Josh, Thought I’d send in some photos from Cooper’s 1st birthday today. As you can see he is extremely handsome! We get so many compliments on his coloring and he is a very happy, intelligent & loving little cuddler. We hope to give him a brother soon! Take care.

Hi Jake and Josh! Wanted to let you know that the puppy I picked up from you in April is doing great! He is an amazing little guy and very healthy! We are having a blast. I attached some pictures of Frankie. He is a beautiful dog. Thank you again!! Best, Emily

Hello Jake & Josh, A very big and heartfelt thank you for introducing us to this magnificent pup that we have named Chloe. We are so in love and Chloe has integrated into our family perfectly. She is so sweet, smart, brave, calm , adventurous and a love bug. Honey is helping with potty training and I can report we’ve hardly had accidents. She has caught on so quickly. Starting to sit on command (copies Honey) and we are working on recall with her name. She has already grown so much, using ramps and stairs for furniture and very respectful to Honeys first days of grumpy attitude. Now they are play and snuggle friend. She eats well, sleeps great and loves to play. She was a champ in the car ride home with no issues at all. We are going to stay with our pack of two for now and when Honey moves on will be back in touch to get a puppy sister for Chloe. I’m so impressed with the quality of this dog. Thank you!!!!!!! Gina, Hunter, Sabi , Chris and Honey

A year ago today you came to Truckee to bring me my sweet little dog.” Yeti “ is doing very well and we love her more everyday. Our Phoebe is doing quite well for 15 years old.

He has been home about 3-4 hours and kind of taken over the place. He adopted me right away and he now wants me to pick him up and carry him everywhere. I never knew a little pup could be so cute and so smart. I have loved all my dogs, but, I can see now see what I have missed all these years by not owning a dachshund. They have a personality like no other. I may call you for another some day. Thanks so much

We absolutely adore our Georgie! This is how we went to my sons Tball practice today haha He sleeps like a human lol

I just wanted to let you know how pleased we are with Gus. He is the friendliest dachshund we’ve ever had. He loves people and gets excited when we go for walks, usually rolling over on his back to try and get pets from people passing by. He went to many high school lacrosse games this past Winter/Spring and became the unofficial mascot! He travels well and will join us on road trips to Southern California and Carmel this Summer. He spends time with all of us in the house, but does favor our daughter, which was exactly what we wanted. She’s the main one that feeds him and he usually sleeps in her room at night
