Hey Jake, My wife & I picked up a female dachshund puppy from you on June 5th. I just wanted to send you an e-mail to give you guys a brief update and thank you for letting us adopt her. We named her Lemon. On the car ride home she slept the entire way without a fuss and she is absolutely sweet to everyone she’s met and adores our older dog. Our older dog is taking some time to warm up but she is getting better by the day and they’ve played together every night since we brought her home. She just had her second round of shots and was very good about it. Overall Lemon is everything we wanted and the perfect addition to our family, we are so grateful you held her for us. Thanks again,

Hi there, Oliver is a rock star. It is as if he has been with us since birth. We have been gone a week now in the RV. Our trip depended on Oliver’s ability to adapt to RV life. Oh my. He has learned everything we need him to do. Oliver has learned so much. Leash work is also amazing. He waits for me to attach his leash. He loves tracking. I may think about special skill and see if there is a tracking group available. On our walks, we are routinely stopped with smiles and sweet comments. He gets attention wherever we go. I am noticing many many dogs that behave badly compared to our rock solid Oliver. His behavior is all due to your upbringing. Whatever you are doing at Songcatchers produced this amazing dog.

As you can see, we finally picked a name. I just wanted to let you know what a sweetheart she is. Of course, she didn’t like the crate and cried when we went to bed. But last night slept all the way through the night. And even went in it today to take a nap on her own. She is learning to accept the grandsons wanting to hold her all the time. And our granddaughters FaceTime her. Thank you so much for letting us have her.

Hi- We wanted to send some updated photos of Bella. She has settled in nicely and we love her so much!

Hey Jake, Looks like you guys have been very busy over at Songcatchers. Just wanted to send you some photos of Ringo our chocolate and tan long hair who was born on September 13 last year from Jolene and Joker. He’s been doing very well and we couldn’t be happier. Classic dachshund combination of fun, loyal and mischievous.

2 years ago this little boy was born. He has been the best boy we could have ever asked for. We love him so very much.

Josh & Jake, Miss Pickle, much like her big brother, is an excellent traveler! She and Mike arrived back on time, and PeeWee got to meet his baby sister at about 10pm. After a quit bite to eat, she slept all night in her crate…..such a good girl! Big breakfast this morning and has been playing ever since! She is so tiny!!! We are so happy – thank you!

Roly’s almost 1, birthday 10/8

Hi Jake, Luis is doing great! He’s incredibly smart and catching on so quickly. He’s well on his way to being house trained (no accident in a week and he’s potting on a cue word!), he already knows hit Sit, Down and Come commands. He’s a bit nippy with the kids. Gets very excited with them almost immediately and starts biting for fun. We need to work on that:) He’s hilarious while chasing his own tail (which I remember my family doxie used to do as well, and it’s the funniest thing ever). He’s getting his booster shot this Friday, so we can start venturing out a bit more. I’m attaching a photo where he jus learned that he can actually lay down and sleep outside of the crate too on his favorite toy:) Hope you are well!

She’s all grown up now and we love her so much! She is the spoiled princess of the house. She is such a cuddle bug. We also have given her all her shots, as we waited until she was an adult to get the one that was considered painful for puppies, so this couch potato is healthy and safe. She’s sweet and on her walks has made several friends, she is never aggressive. We love this little girl!
