Where big hearts
come in small packages.

I had very high expectations of a breeder when we were looking for a dachshund to add to our family, and WhineBark far exceeded my high expectations. Shannon and her family take care of their dogs like they are family. The love that she has for dachshunds is felt when you walk in her house. This is truly one of the best breeders in terms of her care of the dogs, health of the dogs, and follow up after your dog is home.

I stumbled upon these breeders out of the blue and we couldn't have been more pleased. Shannon made the process so smooth, comforting, and always willing to answer questions. As a first time dachshund owner, I had many questions and she was always eager to help. Our sweet little boy is one now and doing amazing thanks to their support. 10/10 recommend!!

Dealing with Shannon was an absolute excellent experience. My two puppies are just the best. I would highly recommend her and her pups.

KarenTennessee's family

Shannon is an amazing Doxie breeder! They are well cared for and loved. Our guy Tennessee is almost 10 months old, healthy and smart as a whip, and has been a great companion to our 10 year old Doxie. He keeps her young! Shannon cares for all of her early charges and her tribe of doxies are healthy, happy and well loved. You couldn't ask for a better start. I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a dachshund!

Julia MartinezPancake's family

Absolute Best Dachshund Breeder! WhineBark Dachshunds is officially my #1 recommendation for anyone looking for a puppy! We were initially very nervous about finding a companion that would match the demeanor of our Dachshund/Chihuahua mix, Bacon. Shannon listened closely to what we wanted and recommended a puppy she thought would be a perfect fit. She was absolutely right. Pancake has been the missing puzzle piece in our family. It was love at first sight for Bacon, and even our cats adore her! A huge highlight for us was that Shannon let us meet Pancake's parents and see exactly where she was raised. As a busy lacrosse family, our dogs travel with us from tournament to tournament, and Pancake adapted perfectly to life on the road. I highly recommend WhineBark for both the incredible quality of their dogs and their amazing communication. Shannon and her family truly care, checking in on the puppies even after they go to their forever homes. We can't wait to get another Dachshund from them in the future!

Shannon is an amazing breeder from top to bottom, she takes very good care of all the dogs and loves them as her own until the day they're picked up, keeps them a clean space and will stay in communication with you through the entire process. I can't recommend her enough.

Shannon with WhineBarkDachshunds helped us a ton in our puppy journey. We started out struggling so hard with random rescues and breeders across the country, it was a disappointing process. We connected with Shannon and she immediately made us feel very comfortable and confident in her breeding and adopting process. We immediately fell in love with one of her puppies who we now call ours! WhineBarkDachshunds even provided a full preparation packet of info, helpful guidance, and a ton of useful puppy supplies. They are our one and only referral for dachshund breeding — highly recommended. Thank you so much for our little fur baby!!

Shannon is truly exceptional. Her love and dedication to her dogs is evident in everything she does. She is honest, transparent, compassionate, and genuinely goes above and beyond for every puppy and every family she works with. Her puppies are well-socialized, healthy, and clearly raised with so much love. If you're looking for a breeder who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about what she does, I can't recommend Shannon and Whinebark Dachshunds enough.
