Good Afternoon, Penny is doing amazing; it’s crazy how smart she is (when she wants to be). I keep thinking how big she’s getting relative to when we got her but everyone else says how cute and small she is. I had two questions I would appreciate a response to if I may ask. 1. Penny is 6 months old today. If memory serves, you suggested getting her spayed at 6 months and not waiting for her first heat or did I get this backward? Our vet is after first heat but will do it before if requested. I just wanted to confirm your thoughts. 2. Second, do all dachshund’s like to bring sticks inside and chew them?!? It’s one of Penny’s favorite things to do; next to me chasing her for the stick. I do get the connection but even if there’s no chase, in they come. Hope everyone is well.

I was heading to work and could not find Lucy. Apparently she wanted dry sleep a little longer. She is a joy to have in the family. Hopefully all is well with you, your family and the dogs.

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

Hi Jake & Josh! We made it home and the pups are all settled in. We had to give her bath… she did get car sick on the way home! She’s all clean and cuddled up with Mike on the couch and napping. Happy as can be. Beans likes her but is still a bit unsure why shes in his house, lol.She found a rock that interested her, haha.

Happy New Year! Just wanted to share a photo of Roxie and our other dachshund, Daisy. They are fast friends now. The third dog is our schnauzer, Gracie, who is 12 and pretty much ignores them both. She has been a wonderful addition to our family! Sandy and Stan

Hi Jake and Josh! Here are some pictures of Wanda! I couldn’t have asked for a better puppy, she is such a sweet girl and has a great temperament. Wanda is just about fully potty trained. She loves my 18 month old son. I am hoping to start socializing her soon with other weenies now that she is fully vaccinated and spayed. I started a lil home business selling dog treats, below is my logo with my two Huskies and Wanda. I hope you guys have a great Sunday!

Hi Jake and Josh, It’s Pliny’s (Joker and Cinnamon’s chocolate/cream male) first birthday! He’s enjoying his life in Livermore, CA with me and my fiancé. He is honestly the best thing to happen to us this past year and we couldn’t imagine life without him. He enjoys going to doggy daycare, sleeping on the couch, and stealing our socks. He is the most stubborn and sassy dog we’ve ever met, but is also the biggest cuddle-bug, and we would not change one thing about him. Thank you so much for choosing us to be his family!

Hi Jake, I hope you are well. I’m sending a 6 month update. Luis is doing fantastic. He’s a big boy now and is going to be neutered tomorrow. I just wanted to say what a great temperament this dog has! He’s so eager to be trained and such a fast learner. He’s doing great on leash and he has a very good recall in open spaces. He’s a smart and fun loving doggo and gets along with our kids so well. No biting or nipping even during crazy playtime. He also loves his crate and spends his time there, without any issues. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog for our family! I’m sending a pic from the beach – one of his favorite places :) Thanks!

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 Jake & Josh! Pickle is 1 year old today! Passing along her adorable birthday photo as well as an updated photo of PeeWee & Pickle together this morning. They are just gorgeous dachshunds with the softest and smoothest coats…..they get compliments everywhere they go!
