Hello. After the death of our 13 year old dachshund “Penny”, my wife and myself were not sure if we wanted another dog. We really loved and miss our Penny, and was sure we would be dissapointted in another dog. Our veterinarian clinic highly recomended tou to us and told us about an informal dachshund club. We got invited to a play day and were surprized that a majority of the doxies there were Songcatcher dogs. They were all stunning, regal and beautiful. Even though we were strangers, the songcatcher dogs were crawling in our laps and showing us their bellies too pet. Soon after that we adopted “Meena”. Our little Meena is now a year old, she is everything we hoped for and more. We can thank you enough for all your advice and help.

Hi Jake, She continues to be amazing – so perfect, so intelligent, so loving and hilarious. She is eating us out of house and home and now weighs about 7 lbs. She and our 16 y/o Leo, are getting along quite well, although he still has to reprimand her when she gets her teeth into him… Thank you for making this time in our life so wonderful!!

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!

Oliver is one in a million, Jake. He is learning so many words, now. Today, he finally understood “wait” at the top of stairs for me to get there. He is so funny, having a definite sense of humor. He laughs at me quite often, and makes me laugh at myself. He now likes to retrieve two balls, carrying one in his mouth, while kicking the second with his paw. Rather remarkable. I have been scrap booking, looking at my history with dogs, including the 4 Guide Dog puppies I raised in 4-H. We had pugs and mastiffs on the ranch. Oliver is above and beyond any dog I have ever known. I have been thinking about a sister for him. But, I could not do justice to two. Just a year ago, I slept for the first week holding him in my chair all night. I was so worried Terry would never, ever bond with a dog. How silly. The hours of training are paying off. And, Terry loves Oliver as much as I do. I just bought Ollie a martingale training collar. He is responding well. It seems he is more responsive than with a regular training collar. I like the design. Still a choke collar, but a little different. Carry on with your amazing pups. I am so glad I found you and Oliver. You never know when we might decided we need another. Merry Christmas,

He is sooooo cute. Eating now, drank a little water too. I love him so much!!

Hard to believe she’s over 8 months old and we’ve had her for 6. She’s grown to be quite the little lady. She’s doing well and loves to chase bugs.

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.

Hi Jake, We sure do love Love LOVE this dog! Marty is such a joy. Thank you! I’d love to get in touch in a year or two about a sibling dog but for now he seems happy to be the “only child.” Ps. Here he is at the farmers market in Portland. Flew on the plane just fine.

Good evening Jake and Josh! Last November I drove out to Sacramento to pick up a sweet 4 month old dapple boy. You had thought about keeping him for breeding, but I was SUPER fortunate you got some other dogs and so released him. He has been a TRUE GIFT. He is really intelligent and can rings bells and do all sorts of commands, he is the most cuddly, loyal little man, always in our laps or at our feet, he is healthy and GORGEOUS. He is great off leash at dog beaches and eats out at patio restaurants like a little gentleman. He hikes miles and is great with other dogs. He is a perfect angel! He turned 1 years old in August and we celebrated him. My husband and I felt we should also reach out and give you an update and express our heartfelt gratitude. Thank-you for enriching our lives! Take care.

We have settled in as if Oliver has lived here his entire life. What a fantastic little guy. Not sure the word DOG applies to him. He fetches repeatedly. He walks perfectly on a leash for his age. He shows attention to each of us equally and has shown fear of nothing. He is such a sweetheart. Oh, he seems to know the word“wait” and has gone potty twice on command, it is just uncanny. Thank you again. You are always welcome to visit
