The other dogs really like the pup. Moxie is really mothering him.

Hi Jake and Josh. Penny is so amazing!!! She’s so happy and playful. It’s super early but she’ll go to her pee pad all by herself. She’s eating well and loves her crinkle toys.

This is Kaya now. 1 year old

Milo’s First Time At The Beach

Hi Jake and Josh – wanted to say hi and send some pics of Zoey! She is just the best! She loves to play and give kisses, she loves treats and showing her belly when she’s excited :). She and her brother Dario became very fast best friends and they love to play. She has seen the vet twice and is well taken care of :). Hope you both and all the Dachshunds are doing well! Happy holidays,

Hi Josh and Jake- this is Lindsay and Dillon who adopted from you last June. We are thinking about getting another dog soon, as Mochi wants a friend. She is six months now and sooo cute. Are you expecting any litters that would be ready to be taken home around the week of December 10th? I have two months off of work starting at that time and thought it would be a good time to add to our family. Here’s Mochi now! She loves the beach

Someone won’t be having a Blue Christmas. Hope is adjusting well. She loves eating whipped cream out of the spray can with her siblings and is now challenging the Mastiff on the other side of the fence when she gets a chance. She used to run for the hills, but now she is mighty and fierce as long as no person is on the other side of the fence as well. She can now catch food coming her way, Yum. She is dawning a Jingle bell collar til’ New Years, as is the Butcher tradition for all canines from Thanksgiving day on. Hope you have a great Holiday season. Still progressing in her social skills with still a ways to go. We meet up with Matt and Hootie often. Take care, Donna and Hope Diamond Doodle Bug.

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.

I have been wanting to correspond with you for quite sometime to let you know how much we love our sweet little girl we got from you this passed December. I was definitely worried about getting a puppy so soon after we lost our “Yoda” and Phoebe being 14 years old. But as you may remember as soon as I came down to meet you and the puppies that sweet little girl had my heart. She is doing so good, we are relieved that the tough Truckee winter is behind us and we can enjoy long walks at last without having to put a coat on. We just returned from the coast, Monterey Bay Area, enjoying the beach for a few days, it was great for all of us. Hope all is well for you and your family, including all your furry family members.

Little Tobi has been with us a full week now and every day I continue to be amazed by him. I have owned dogs for the past 75 years, sometimes one often two. I have had some pretty good ones, but I have never enjoyed any of them more than this little 7 1/2 lb pup who has just kind of touched our hearts. He amuses us 24/7. He seldom ever wears down, but when he does he is the most loving, docile little fellow you could ever want to be around. Smart as a whip. He inherited a basket full of puppy toys and he adores everyone of them He will go to the basket and bring you one of the toys. Every time you throw it he will retrieve it and bring it back to you every time. More amusing is that a number of the stuffed toys squeak and he has learned how to bite each one of them so it squeals the loudest. He will stand on his hind legs even without treats. He just wants to please us and he doesn’t need a treat to be persuaded to do anything. Seldom ever an indoor accident. After just one week he will wee and poop outside 95 percent of the time. He is starting to communicate a desire to go outside and I recognize most of his signals. He is starting to understand a few of the things I tell him and I think it is just a matter of time before he understand most of what I say to him. If I had to pay for the entertainment he has given us, I probably couldn’t afford it. Sincere Thanks and Kind Regards
