Good evening Jake and Josh! Last November I drove out to Sacramento to pick up a sweet 4 month old dapple boy. You had thought about keeping him for breeding, but I was SUPER fortunate you got some other dogs and so released him. He has been a TRUE GIFT. He is really intelligent and can rings bells and do all sorts of commands, he is the most cuddly, loyal little man, always in our laps or at our feet, he is healthy and GORGEOUS. He is great off leash at dog beaches and eats out at patio restaurants like a little gentleman. He hikes miles and is great with other dogs. He is a perfect angel! He turned 1 years old in August and we celebrated him. My husband and I felt we should also reach out and give you an update and express our heartfelt gratitude. Thank-you for enriching our lives! Take care.

Oliver is one in a million, Jake. He is learning so many words, now. Today, he finally understood “wait” at the top of stairs for me to get there. He is so funny, having a definite sense of humor. He laughs at me quite often, and makes me laugh at myself. He now likes to retrieve two balls, carrying one in his mouth, while kicking the second with his paw. Rather remarkable. I have been scrap booking, looking at my history with dogs, including the 4 Guide Dog puppies I raised in 4-H. We had pugs and mastiffs on the ranch. Oliver is above and beyond any dog I have ever known. I have been thinking about a sister for him. But, I could not do justice to two. Just a year ago, I slept for the first week holding him in my chair all night. I was so worried Terry would never, ever bond with a dog. How silly. The hours of training are paying off. And, Terry loves Oliver as much as I do. I just bought Ollie a martingale training collar. He is responding well. It seems he is more responsive than with a regular training collar. I like the design. Still a choke collar, but a little different. Carry on with your amazing pups. I am so glad I found you and Oliver. You never know when we might decided we need another. Merry Christmas,

Hey Jake, Just wanted to thank you and you family again. Plupo is fitting right in and has be amazing from day 1. Hope you all have a happy holidays!

Hi Josh! I’m not sure if you remember me but my name is Ashlyn B. I was lucky enough to take home one of your black and cream dapples early 2021. Her name is Daisy and we love her so much. Daisy was able to grow up with one of my older dogs, but sadly he recently passed away. We are looking to get another mini dachshund to add to the family. I was wondering what litters you have coming up in the future? I had a great experience purchasing Daisy with your family the first time and would love to do so again. Let me know when you get the chance, thank you!

My wife and myself are small animal veterinarians. Over the years more than a few Songcatcher Dachshunds have come through our practice. All have been beautiful, well socialized and healthy. Last year we visited you and adopted two half brothers. You have a first rate operation, with large park like yards. All your dogs are super friendly and healthy. Your expertise in nutrition, breeding and genetics is amazing. Together my wife and myself have close to 40 years of veterinary experience, and will only refer customers to you if they are looking for a small dog.

Hi Jake! Just wanted to check in and let you know how our new little guy is doing. We’ve named him Waylon and he fits in perfectly! You did a fantastic job with him; he is incredibly friendly and doesn’t seem to know any strangers. Everyone who has met him can’t seem to get enough of him! Thanks so much for working with us and meeting Alan in Truckee. He is really enjoying his new little buddy and although he isn’t Cooper, we see a lot of him in Waylon. Thanks again!

We just wanted to give a quick update on our sweet Luna. She is doing so well. We are obsessed with her, she’s the most beautiful (now 7 months old) puppy. She goes everywhere with us. She runs the house, but her temperament and personality fit seamlessly into our family. Her big sister is a 90-pound lab mix and they play so well together. We are already planning for our next puppy, it will be a little while, but we can’t wait to add another beautiful ween to our brood. Thank you for this wonderful addition to our family.

Hi Jake, I hope you and your family are doing well and staying healthy. I wanted to share a few photos and an update on the female long hair cream dapple I got from Strawberry & Jokers August 20th litter. We have named her Jasmine and call her Jazzy. She’s thriving and such a joy! She has fit nicely into our family including with our Boxer dogs, cat and chickens. It fills my heart with such happiness watching her run and play on our little homestead. I can’t thank you enough for breeding such a fantastic quality dog.

Hi Josh, We are loving Marty! He already knows how to fetch and put the toy down for us to throw again. Going out the dog door to pee is another matter…working on that. And he loves the raw food so we’ll keep it up. He seems ok with the puppy harness and doing short walks around the block. Nothing wrong with Marty’s teeth. Here he is chewing up the Tasmanian Devil Thanks!

Hello- We want you both to know that we are SO happy with our little girl, Winnie. She is the softest, cutest, sweetest puppy I have ever seen in my life! My husband who swore he would never get a little “rat dog” (as he used to call small dogs) is so in love with her! It is hilarious to hear a big/tall man baby talk obsessively to a tiny puppy! Ha ha. When I have more time on my Xmas break, I will add a positive review to your website. This has been such a wonderful experience for us! We will highly recommend you to anyone interested in a long haired doxie! Holly
