We  purchased a puppy from www.ruffhausdashunds.net. From  Babette  she has  a great breed of Dachshunds, and is a very nice person to do business with Li'l Gracie is a great puppy. Our puppy is very healthy and loveable  and playful and is the joy of our life.  We couldn't have asked for a better puppy.

Thank you Aunt Babette for the best souvenir I could have ever imagined from Maine. I love Tucker so much I could eat him with a spoon. He is so pretty and sweet and just our little cuddle bug. I love you big bunches, Mackenzie (Texas)



Greetings from NH
Thought I would let you know that I would catch you up on the heart that walks around outside my body also known as Mayako - what a truly sensationaly girl she is.  She atracts a crowd wherever we go and is so very friendly to everyone who meets her.  I had expected joy from owning a dog....but what I get from Maya is so much beyond my expectations that I am overwhelmed.  We go to the park almost every day, and even when we don't, we get to play in the yard, and play we do.  She is curious, rambunctious and full of P & V.  I love it.  She has brought such joy into my life and I again want to thank you for bringing us together.  I do not have any pictures that I can hook to my computer yet, but that is in the works, and when I do, I will send some along.  She grows more beautiful and friendly every day.  I could have sold her several times over - but NO WAY.  We belong together and she goes almost everywhere with me.  And even sneaks into stores she might not normally supposed to be in....shame on me for that one!  But we continue to have a great time together and again, thanks much.  Tell her Mom and Dad she says hello and she misses them, but not enough to move home.......

Have a magical day! (New Hampshire)

My husband is Babette's brother and they are very close. We all are in fact and I wish they lived closer or vica versa. We visit the gang in Maine about every three years because of the expense of travel (and in between our having kids) but would see them more if we could. Our girls are 7 and 4 and we had not even considered getting a pet as we have two dogs and a cat that are all old as the hills and on borrowed time, that we thought we would wait to pass on to the next life before getting new pets. Okay that is easy to do from thousands of miles away but in true form, our "favorite Aunt Babette" managed to produce about a zillion beautiful puppies on que as if she just new exactly when we were going to show up. Now if you think one or two of these puppies are beautiful, imagine a gaggle of these geese all at once. And folks, these dogs are their pets. They aren't in the back forty in a kennel. They watch TV with them, sit under foot in the kitchen, play board games on the floor with the kids, etc. In a weeks time we got to know the pups really well and it was so much fun watching the kids play with them. Aunt Babette kept asking us if she could give the girls a puppy from her and we just couldn't say no. So like a true Griswald family vacation, we hauled two very small kids, a pile of luggage and one tiny but beautiful dachsund back from Maine on the airplane. I wish I could describe to you how sweet Tucker is. He is so great with the kids (Imagine a pup being dragged slowly out from under the Christmas tree by a three year old, by the tail, backwards and not so much as a yelp.) and they just love him. He is such a big part of our family and has been the perfect pet for all of us. There isn't one person that comes to our house that doesn't goes nuts over him, going on and on about how beautiful he is. That is the beauty of Babette's dogs; they are very versatile. Tucker could just as easily be a show dog as he is our family pet. We thank her all of the time for gifting the girls such a treasured gift that they will never forget. He is truly a part of our family and we can't imagine life without him.

Hi Babette,
Happy New Year! Our guy was neutered on 12/27 and is doing just fine. Jack was home that week which made it easier to take care of the little bundle of energy. He's back on track except not taking those power walks for now.
I know you're used to hearing this about your litters, but Cooper is our first Dachsy with such a wonderful temperment. Every person loves him. When he went in for his surgery that morning, the Vet Tech (who has loved him from his early puppy days) says she carried him around that morning. Just makes me smile.
And he is great in his crate now. No more of those tantrums that you heard over the phone. He takes a power nap every morning after breakfast ... nice life.
But ... our perfect little dog has now found his voice. Makes me laugh. We fell for this with our first puppy ... "Gee, he doesn't bark very much." Hah!!
It's a new winter world for him, so we're dealing with the barking pretty well. Got advice from his trainer at the NHSPCA on how to handle it when (and if) it escalates.
Thanks for the dog cartoons. Made me laugh ... I visit your website often to see what's new. I think of all the owners that will be starting their journeys with their little guys. What a trip it has been for us.
Kisses to every single dachshund in your pack and tell Lexi her boy is doing fine ... he's living the life and I can't imagine our lives without him. How boring it was before he came!

P.S. He's not too spoiled. We shovel a poop area for him after every snow storm that we've had. And it's been a record year. The prince sits on the steps and watches.

I purchased a pup from Babette a month ago and she's just so sweet!! She loves everyone, not defensive or shy at all- you can tell she's been well socialized!! She is healthy and clean with no fleas, etc. and just so beautiful! I like that I was able to get a quality pup without looking halfway across the country! Also Babette was great to talk with and work with when I was making my decision which of course is a pleasure!! Thanks so much! Jennifer (Vermont)

Babette & Brandi do a wonderful job with their dogs, they are always happy, clean and healthy. they are honest,knowledgeable, and accessible, accessibility is very important to me and I would like to stress that these ladies are accessible before, during, and after you get a puppy from them.

That's right I'm hooked on             Dachshunds.  It started shortly after losing a family pet sheltie to complete kidney failure.  Ever since I began the search for another small breed dog, and researched the breed, I began looking on the Uncle Henrys swap and sell it  internet site.  Yeah, that's when I fell in love with this gorgeous red sable boy mini long haired Dachshund, Tucker' s A Little Sable Treasure (Born April 25, 2006) a male, he has live with us for 1 yr. and proven to be everything we could ever ask for in a loviing, loyally devoted companion.  Babette, Bruce, Brandy and children are exceptional .   They have been there willingly, to answer any questions and never seeming to be bothered By what I ask They live close by, to be able to visit as well.  This made the transition with a pup less stressful.  I believe the time, care and pati ence spent with all their dachshunds, Is what created such a wonderful loving friend.  Ok, ready for this one........ I did it all over again, Yep  a sweet little girl, a dilute red cream,  Summer's Sweet Cream Serenity (Born March 26, 2007)  she's a tiny little sweet pea. I believe, that independant breeders are the way to aquire a pet from as they stand by their exceptional devotion for every dachshund entering and leaving their home. Rachel  (Maine)
