Hello! Hope you’ve been well! It was Cosmo’s first birthday yesterday (from Gypsy and Ritz’s litter). He’s the most wonderful little big guy (14.3 pounds): healthy and full of energy and personality. Can’t imagine my life without him – thank you!!!

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

Greetings! Update on Maple and Scotty, the Dapple Duo: Maple- smooth coated dapple female and Scotty- long-hair dapple male. They will be 2 years old in July (Maple) and August (Scotty) of 2023. Thank you to everyone at Songcatcher!

I just wanted to reach out to you and let you know that we are enjoying our new little puppy (Una) SO MUCH!!!! She is a sweetheart and full of joyful puppy energy. At first our 6 year old dachshund (Zero) was indignant about the new addition, but as of Friday she has decided that Una is a great new playmate! Thank you so much for giving us an amazing new member of our family. Attached are some pictures of her, she has grown so much already!!

Hello! Pretzel turned TWO this week. He’s doing great and is so so spoiled! We are obsessed and love him so much!

Good morning! Finny is growing so much and is such a character. The vet said she was 6.8 lbs this week. The first toy she got is still her favorite and she takes it everywhere with her! We are so happy with her! Thanks guys!!

Hello Jake, It’s been a month since we got our Baxter so I thought I’d send you an update. He is 10 lbs, healthy, full of fun, loves people (big and little), rides great in the car and has learned to like his crate – but not his playpen since that’s where he goes when I’m busy around the house and he thinks I should let him help :)) As far as we can tell he’s fearless, and he’s also VERY determined (okay, stubborn) once he sets his mind on doing something! Our dog yard is big and there are oak sticks everywhere. I throw them for Baxter to chase while we’re out there and a couple weeks ago I noticed that he always came back with the stick I’d just thrown. Not one of the other 1000 or so sticks in the yard, not the stick we played with yesterday, but the exact stick I’d just tossed. A few days ago I started throwing the stick without making sure he saw me do it. Jake, he’s not even 4 months old and he hunts until he finds the right stick, is that a Dachshund thing? Anyway, we really love this little guy, thanks so much for holding him for me! Best regards, Lee J

Hi Jake and Josh Bet you have more snow now. Hope you are all warm. This is Elsa on her back doing her stare at you come play with me tease. She is such a love. Have a happy new year.

Hello Jake thanks for advice on heartguard. She is very active. Here is a pic of the happy owners. Have a great Sunday.

I searched from our area in Washington to the east coast and back in search of a reputable and caring breeder. We lost or 18 1/2 yr old dachshund a little over a year ago and replacing her was a very big emotional adventure for us and our daughters. After getting taken for a ride by one so-called breeder and losing our deposit, I was hesitant to even keep searching. I came across Songcatcher and honestly only clicked the link because I really liked the name.??. Little did I know my email would be answered right away by Jake, and then excellent communication from there on out with Josh. They answered all of our questions all of the time and even called our puppy by name until we made the 16 hour drive south to pick him up. Josh met us at our hotel and was very professional and thorough with our precious delivery. They emailed 3 months later when our requested second puppy had been born and the same exceptional communication and happiness rang through with puppy #2 as well. My husband flew this time to Sacramento and back in one day and Josh met him at the airport for the exchange. Both our puppies, PeeWee & Pickle are not only healthy, but ridiculously loving and absolutely gorgeous! Our vet fell in love with them and said “you did good wherever you got these two”. I’m attaching a picture of our babies from just this morning. They are best friends. If I could afford it and had the patience for more pups I would get back on the waiting list and go through this process over and over again with Jake and Josh and their dachshunds. I hope this was helpful for you in making your decision.
