Dickson Small Breed Pups

"I am the proud "MOM" :-) of a long-haired, red miniature dachshund from Deb. I contacted her in October, requesting information on her miniature dachshunds. I was looking for a long-hair and had heard of her, but had never met her or purchased a pup before. She invited me out to take a look at the pups she had, and I have to say, I was impressed. Deb's love and expertise of her dogs was very evident shortly after walking in the door. I was amazed at how well-behaved and obedient they were, and how attached the puppies were to her.

I left that first night without a pup because I had my heart set on a long-hair, which she didn't have at that time. We kept in contact over the next couple months, because she had a long-haired dachshund that was expecting. My weekly visits began on Dec. 11, after I learned that my pup had been born on Dec. 5. Deb was very welcoming and accommodating whenever I wanted to visit, even though I teased her that she would be sick of me by the time I got to bring my baby home. The "big day" finally arrived on Feb. 1, and I went to pick up our new addition. When I arrived, a lady who had bought a pup from Deb 15 years ago was there to take home another pup, since hers had died in December. It was very obvious the trust and admiration she and her daughter both had for Deb.

I have nothing but good things to say about Deb and her kennel, and feel privileged that she trusted me enough to let me have one of her babies. I know it is not something she takes lightly." Sandy G. From Rapid City, S.D.

"I love my Papillion. They are so smart, loyal, and all around a great breed. I have purchased 4 dogs from Deb, 3 Shih Tzus & 1 Papillion. I would never buy from anyone else. My parents got their Papillion from Deb, my son has a Shih Tzu from Deb & my son's friend just purchased a Shih Tzu from Deb, he was very impressed how clean her kennels are. Deb's kennels are very clean, all her dogs/puppies are clean & well taken care of, she loves what she is doing & it shows. She doesn't over breed, so her puppies are very lovable. All have a good temperament and are very healthy." Louise From Hermosa, S.D.

"I have known Deb Dickson for years and have been very impressed with her professional standards of breeding puppies. My shih tzu , Marshall, came from her kennel. I see numerous clients in my clinic that have purchased puppies from Dickson Small Breed Pups over the years and are very satisfied." Lynne Mazzone, VMD Mountain View Animal Hospital, Rapid City, South Dakota

"My husband and I bought a little shih tzu from Dickson Small Breed Pups and was very impressed with the cleanliness of the kennel and the care the dogs all receive. Deb was also wonderful with answering all questions we had. I felt very comfortable about taking the puppy home and giving her care." Mary G. Rapid City, South Dakota

"I want to thank you for being in the business of breeding these wonderful dogs. You have brought much joy in my life and are a blessing to dog lovers everywhere. Thank goodness there are responsible and caring breeders in the world like you where people like me can purchase the special breed of our hearts." Terry A. Arvada, Colorado
