Old Oak Dachshund Puppy Reviews

These notes from puppy families describe health records, early socialization, communication, and the transition from Old Oak to home.

“Otto settled into our house in about two days. You can tell he was handled and socialized from the start — he wasn’t scared of the vacuum, the stairs, or our two loud kids. By the end of the first week he was already sleeping through the night in his crate.”

— David & Priya K., Portland, Oregon

“Our vet said she was one of the healthiest puppies she’d seen all year. The records we received — OFA clearances, PRA and NCL results, full vaccination history — were more thorough than anything we expected from a breeder. We asked for the parents’ test results before placing our deposit and had them the same afternoon.”

— Sarah M., Austin, Texas

“I called with a question about Wren’s weight at 11pm on a Tuesday, half expecting to leave a voicemail. Got a call back by 8am the next morning with a real answer, not a deflection. That set the tone for everything that followed.”

— Michelle R., Charlotte, North Carolina

“The flight nanny handed Hazel to us at DIA and she was calm, alert, and clearly used to being held. We’d been nervous about shipping a puppy, but this was nothing like the cargo stories we’d read about. Worth every dollar.”

— Jennifer & Tom H., Denver, Colorado

“We got a video every Sunday for four weeks while we waited for Rufus to be old enough to travel. By the time he arrived, we felt like we already knew him. My daughter still watches the week-three video where he first climbed out of the whelping box.”

— Marcus L., Atlanta, Georgia

“Juniper had a minor umbilical hernia that our vet noticed at the 72-hour exam. I called Old Oak expecting a fight and instead got a calm conversation about what it was, what it wasn’t, and why it isn’t covered under the guarantee — plus an offer to cover the surgical correction anyway if it ever needed one. That honesty is why I’d buy from them again.”

— Rachel B., Seattle, Washington

“Marigold is almost two now. What I appreciate most is the guidance on weight and jumping — they check in periodically and ask real questions. Most breeders disappear after the sale. These people are still helping us protect her back two years later.”

— Angela P., Phoenix, Arizona

“We drove four hours to meet the litter in person before committing. They didn’t rush us, answered every question, and let us spend an hour with the puppies and their mother. Poppy picked us, honestly. We knew within ten minutes.”

— Brian & Melissa W., Chicago, Illinois

“Winston’s AKC registration and full pedigree arrived in the same envelope as his health certificate. No chasing, no delays, no ‘we’ll send it later.’ Everything was exactly as described before we paid a dime.”

— Thomas G., Boston, Massachusetts

“Barnaby is a year and a half old. I texted them a photo of him last month just to say thank you. They texted back. That’s the whole review, really — these are people who stay in the picture.”

— Lena S., Minneapolis, Minnesota
