Good Morning, I understand you are considering purchasing a puppy from Jake Zanocco. I can assure you that he is a great guy to deal with and his dachshunds are of the highest quality. We looked at numerous websites to find the right puppy and we were lucky enough to find Jakes website which showed all the available puppies. We picked one out on the website and drove to his place in Nevada City and took a look at the puppy we saw online. We fell in love with her at first sight, and we picked her up when she was old enough to leave her mother. She is a smart, active and lovable little creature, and we are very thankful that we found Jake and his puppies. She is a great addition to our family, after having lost two or our dachshunds last year to old age. Jake is honest and will answer any questions you may have about the puppy you are about to purchase. He’ll advise you regarding their care, their diet and medications. In short, I would highly recommend that you get your puppy from Jake. You’ll never be sorry you drove to Nevada City to buy a puppy from him.

Hello Penny is settling in and relaxing. Happy and growing; over 6 pounds. Only surprise we’ve had so far is her leaping and jumping ability. She just launches sometimes. I worry about her back but there’s no stopping her. Oh, and she can’t have enough crinkle toys ?? Best, Bruce

Hello Jake, and best wishes for a good new year to come! Thought I’d let you know how we’re doing with our first dachshund. Since we’ve always had herding dogs we are often surprised by Baxter’s reaction to things but we are learning that it’s all about the nose for him? At 9 mos and 14 lbs, our vet thinks he’s about done growing, very sturdy and muscular. He has a lovely coat, nice dentition and bite as well. We take him everywhere and another surprise was how many people would come up to tell us they have or had a dachshund, or know someone who does, and share their opinion of them. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of middle ground – people either think they’re the most wonderful dogs ever or they don’t like them much. When we first got Baxter it was a bit scary to have that negative input – impossible to potty train, don’t like people much, inclined to be snappy, dig and bark incessantly, don’t get along with other dogs, etc. Since NONE of that is true about our little guy I just laugh now and let those folks see for themselves how awesome he is! Baxter is awesome. Healthy, loving, handsome, playful, comical and yes, a bit spoiled because he’s so darn cute we just can’t help ourselves!

Hello Josh and Jake, Just wanted you to know that Dory had her first birthday – she is still the energetic little “diva” you said she was. Loves to take long walks, sniff everything along the way. and get attention from anyone nearby. She is very loving and a great companion. She hops up to the back of the sofa and wraps herself around my neck when I am reading or watching TV. Thanks so much for bringing her into my life.

Hi Jake, We just wanted to share with you how pleased we are with our babies. Cherry Bomb, from Grendox He’s a Pistol and Nuforest’s California Dreaming, is 3 now and doing great and little Boo Bear turned 1 on January 22nd. She was from Gypsy and Hank’s litter. Hope you and your family are doing well. Thank you again for our sweet little girls. Thank you,

Here’s a picture of Bodhi… He’s doing great… I think he’s going to be huge… His paws are bigger than my adult Doxies. He has inserted himself into the family and he is doing great! I wonderful personality!

Jake: It’s Dan D. from Reno. I have not sent you pictures of Lizzy and Lucy lately, so I took this one tonight and thought you might like seeing that they are both doing well. Lizzy, on the right is turning into a great little dog and a great addition to our family. We feel lucky that we met you when we did. Hopefully all is well with you and your family, and your gang of dogs. Have a great week.

Jake, Just wanted to let you know that things are going great! He is absolutely adorable! He really settled in today and we have a good routine going. I decided to take time off work so that I could spend as much time with him as possible over the next few months and get him acclimated well, so don’t worry he is in great hands. Thanks!

Hi Josh. Rick and I wanted to share a 1st birthday photo of our beautiful Xena Warrior Princess. We love her so much.

Hi Jake, Ollie is a delight. Sweet and playful. Just who our other dog and the household needed! Thank you!
