Our girl, Finnick (Finny), is doing great! She just had her 10 week vaccine appointment yesterday and was all healthy. We have just had the best two weeks with her! She is beginning to become great friends with our other dog and they are inseparable. Here’s some update photos!

Hello Zanocco family! I hope this email finds you all well. Husband Dan and I purchased Genie from the Aug 9, 2021 Joker x Ginger litter. She’s such a sweet girl! As she nears her second birthday, we feel ready to bring home another Songcatcher pup. Ideally, we would bring him home Oct-Dec. I know that you do not take wait-list requests, but Dan and I would love a long-haired dapple male. Do you anticipate any litters with that coat/coloring being born towards the end of the year? We are very serious about this inquiry, and I would be happy to place a deposit now to secure our spot. I have attached some photos of Genie, including one from our trip to Cannon Beach, OR. She loves the sand but not so much the waves! Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you.

Jake: It’s Dan from Reno. It’s been a while since I sent you pictures of Lucy and Lizzy. That are thriving and doing well. As you can see, they are spoiled rotten and living a life of leisure. We are glad we met you, and I think our pups would feel the same if you asked them. Hopefully you and your family and all your pups are doing well. Kind regards,

Hi Jake and Co, We have one of your puppies, Luna, that was born 10/15/22. She is the queen of our household and the love of our lives. We are hoping to add another one of your beautiful pups to our family. I was wondering if you expect any puppies to be ready to come home in early-mid July? We live in Washington State but have plans to be in the Sacramento area around that time to visit family.  Thank you for the girl we just can’t get enough of, she has been the most amazing therapy for me with the sudden, devastating loss of my dad recently.  Looking forward to hearing from you, Molly D

Hi Jake See how shiny Clover is now. Her fur has thickened and is very soft. She learned shake hands with both paws in the last 2 days.

Jake: It’s Dan Dunham from Reno. It’s been a while since I sent you pictures of the two beautiful little girls you sent our way 3 and 5 years ago. They are healthy and happy and the best company that old folks could ever ask for. Thank you so much for having such great little pups available. We feed them Farmer’s Dog and take them to the vet for all their shots and treatments. If you need referrals, please let me help you. They can come to our house to see what healthy and happy dogs you raise and sell. Lizzy is the dark one and Lucy is the light colored little girl. Thanks again for our great little pair of doxies!

Hi Jake – I, my family and my dog (Olive) can’t thank you enough for choosing us as Callie’s new family…she is the PERFECT fit for us and we couldn’t possibly be more happy with her!!! She is so smart, funny, playful and loving and she is such a good and sweet little girl! Olive and her are best friends and have so much fun together playing, running, chasing squirrels and balls, and guarding our house…I could just watch them for hours together. I hope you don’t mind but we changed her name to Pickles as it is just too cute to have Pickles and an Olive…she responded to the name almost immediately. So far I’ve gotten her a wellness plan through Banfield Pet Hospital and will get her pet insurance, Healthy Paws, once she is spayed as the premium will be much less at that time. She has had her teeth cleaned, which went very well, and will be spayed on March 27. The staff at Banfield think she is such a sweetheart, which she is. Below is a picture of her taking a nap with me…she is my little love bug. Thank you again for trusting us to provide Callie aka Pickle with a good, safe and loving home! I think you would be very happy to see how well she has adjusted and how quickly she became a part of our family…we do adore and love her.

Hi Jake!!! Just wanted to send you a note to let you know how loved our puppy is!!! We adopted the shaded red wirehaired puppy on January 11th. We named him Rusty and he just fits right in with everyone! His new best buddy are a white fluffy cat! He is my little shadow and I just adore him. I will upload some pictures to send to you. Thank you so much for everything! Rusty is just perfect!!

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.
