Kevin and Tina are such wonderful breeders! We just adopted a long haired cream (Mr. Jack) and he is absolutely stunning! Seeing his little face pop up in the window when they drove to deliver him to us, I about died of how instantly I fell in love with him. He has the sweetest temperament and a beautiful coat. House training him surprisingly has been very easy due to Kevin and Tina using potty pads with him before we adopted him. We live in an apartment so we thought it was going to be a challenge to house train a puppy let alone a wiener puppy.
I previously adopted a Dachshund from Kevin & Tina many years ago and she was absolutely stunning with an amazing pedigree like our little Jack, so we plan to adopt another precious weenie from them and we can’t wait!
These breeders are truly a blessing!

Our family was looking to expand by four paws and when we found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, we knew it was going to be the perfect fit. Kevin and Tina were easy to work with and answered all of our questions. Their puppy knowledge is extensive, and their puppies are so sweet. We matched with our English Cream Louie, who is so mild-mannered but full of spunk! Coordinating and meeting Louie was very easy, and Kevin made the process as smooth as possible. I appreciate how down to Earth they are as well as how easy they are to ask for advise and suggestions. We are looking forward to many great years ahead with Louie.

We adopted our baby dachshund from Edward’s extraordinary dachshunds. Our experience dealing with Kevin and Tina was great! They answered all the emails within a timely fashion and the description of the puppies were spot on. This is our second dachshund that we have adopted into our family and we lost our first one after having him for 10 years. We picked our puppy up on Thursday evening and had him checked at the vet on Friday and the vet said he was in very good condition! Kevin and Tina are very nice people and we look forward to doing business with them in the future when we get another dachshund. If I you are hunting a dachshund, I would highly recommend Kevin and Tina at Edward’s extraordinary dachshunds.
Thank you!

Kevin and Tina, thank you so much for letting us adopt sweet Coco into our family. She is such a sweet, playful, smart and lovable pup. We can tell she was raised with lots of love. Our vet said she is just the sweetest and is a healthy little girl.
We had a wonderful experience through the adoption process. We can tell you care where your little baby dolls go. We appreciate all the information on your website along with all the info you provided via email. The pickup process was smooth and the goody bag was a nice touch. We are happy and excited to have her and look forward to many years of joy. Thank you so much!

Thank you for a wonderful experience with Oliver the long-haired dachshund!
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience I had purchasing Oliver, the long-haired dachshund, from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund’s!
First and foremost, I want to thank them for taking such great care of Oliver. It's evident that they provided a loving and nurturing environment for him. He is such a happy and healthy pup!
I also wanted to commend them on their exceptional customer service. From the initial inquiry to the final adoption process, they were prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. Their knowledge and expertise in dachshunds made me feel confident in my decision to bring Oliver home.
Not only did they provide accurate information about Oliver's breed characteristics and needs, but they also went above and beyond by providing me with valuable resources and tips for his care, as well as a goodie bag for the ride home. Their dedication to ensuring a smooth transition for both Oliver and me was truly the best.
I must say, Oliver has quickly become a beloved member of my family. His playful nature, affectionate personality, and those adorable long ears have brought so much joy into our lives. I cannot thank them enough for entrusting me with such a wonderful companion.
There outstanding services and genuine love for these furry friends make them an exceptional dog breeder/seller. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to bring a new four-legged family member into their lives.
Wishing you all the best,

"Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds" has been completely accommodating to our adoption of one of their long haired dachshunds and we feel greatest appreciative of their commitment to education and preparation for us to meet our new baby.

“We absolutely love our new puppy from Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. The Edward’s know exactly what they are doing, as this is our second time adopting one of their pups. Our experience each time has been flawless. Our first puppy, Peanut, was an extremely well behaved, social, and energetic little buddy! The second time around, working with the Edward’s, we adopted “Bunny,” who we renamed Dolly Jane, and she is no doubt the best dog we’ve ever had. The Edwards kept her for an extra week, socialized her with the crate, and she was almost completely potty trained with potty pads, which easily translated to outside potty training, and she loves being in her crate. She is a wonderful dog and we already cannot imagine our lives without her. She is extremely smart, coachable, and eager to please. Furthermore, I think the Edwards’ puppies come with something really special, personalities full of love and affection, confidence, and security. Dolly is doing amazingly well for a 13 week old baby and does not show any signs of behavior issues or health problems. The vet said she is the epitome of perfect health! She is everything you could ever want in a puppy. We feel like she’s truly part of the family. Thanks to the Edward’s for being the very best at what you do!

8 years ago, we started the search for a second miniature dachshund to add to our family as our then 8-year-old dachshund Baxter needed a friend. We stumbled on the Edwards’s website and found our sweet little long-haired cream girl who we eventually named Winnie. Winnie has been an absolute joy in our lives ever since and, after sadly losing Baxter this past spring at age 16, we knew we wanted her to have another companion. Though we were grieving and not planning on getting a puppy for a year or so, we kept tabs on their website and immediately fell in love with a little red boy now named Bennie. The process of reserving Bennie for our family was just as easy as getting Winnie years ago. The Edwards were very prompt with their responses, helpful, and thorough with their questions (which we greatly appreciate as it protects the best interests of the puppies). They are very knowledgeable about the breed and dedicated to finding their pups the best homes. Picking up our little Bennie was a wonderful experience, and we are so thankful for their guidance and support not just in the puppy stages, but also later in our pups’ lives. We can’t imagine life without them! So far, Bennie has been as sweet, lovable, goofy, and happy as his sister. The Edwards undoubtedly love what they do, and we are so thankful for our two pups.
We hope to be repeat customers once again in the future. Thank you!

We adopted a beautiful mini long haired dachshund from Kevin and Tina and it was a great experience. They gave me all the information and goodies needed to get started with a new puppy and that was greatly appreciated. I also know that if I have any questions now or in the future that I can reach out to Kevin and Tina and they'd be happy to provide me with the guidance I need.
It's very obvious that Kevin and Tina truly care about the placement of their puppies and because of that I knew that I was making the right choice by going through them.
I highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and if we get another puppy in the future I plan on being a returning customer.

I recently got my second puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. My first was an English Cream long-haired boy many years ago. Sadly we lost him to an animal attack, and I watched their website until I saw Heath (now Teddy)! I instantly fell in love with his sweet little face, and contacted Kevin and Tina about getting him. They asked a ton of questions to make sure what kind of home he would be going to, and I was glad to answer them. We picked him up at the post office near their home, and he's the sweetest little angel! We look forward to many years with him.

Kevin and Tina were awesome to work with. Everything was smooth going and an awesome experience. Earlier this year we were scammed out of a dachshund which halted our search for a little while. A few months later I came across Kevin and Tina’s website and after inquiring I felt really good about them. They were so sweet and gave me so much information.
We absolutely adore our puppy from one of their litters and I would definitely work with them again!

Dear Kevin and Tina, I just want to thank you for making it possible to add to our family [again ]. We are so happy we got to adopt little sweet Gloria she's so full of life and already a big part of our family. She's done so well adapting to her new home. Gloria and Molly have taken right up with one another. We're so excited for the great years ahead. We can't help but think none of this would have been, had it not been for the awesome and caring job you both do. Thank you, with all of our hearts.
For anyone looking to adopt your next Dachshund,
I Highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, there's no scale high enough to put a rating on the care and dedication they put into these babies. All I can say is Kevin and Tina are above and beyond in what they do. We were comfortable getting our 2nd baby from these wonderful and loving people, without a doubt we'll be back!

Hello - our baby is doing great! The vet told us he is one of the most beautiful dachshunds she has ever seen!
And please know you have brought so much happiness to Kurt and me. Don’t be surprised if we end up with another one! We can’t thank you enough for this adorable friend.
We picked up our little Cooper last night. What a blessing he is! In just one day, he has brought so much sunshine into our lives. Cooper has already bonded with us. Our neighbors and friends think he is the cutest little guy ever! We can’t thank Kevin and Tina enough for raising such a beautiful boy. We are very grateful to know there are such wonderful people out there who care enough about their babies to be selective enough when it comes to choosing their forever homes!
Many blessings.

Thank you so much to Kevin and Tina for letting us have the opportunity to have Minnie join our home. In the day she has been home, her personality is already coming out, and she is such a playful and sweet dog. She and our dog Barney are getting along, and we are sure they will be best friends soon. Overnight we were concerned about her being nervous and not eating, and Kevin was prompt in giving suggestions on how to get her to eat and feel more comfortable. She is now adjusting to our home and exploring her area. We can tell she has been raised with a lot of love as she loves people and getting pets.
Our experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds was great. They were prompt with their responses and questions for us, and we can tell that they truly care for where their dogs end up. Their questions about us and our home were thorough, but not overwhelming. When picking her up, Kevin told us more about her personality and went over her vet records. She came home with a goody bag full of toys, a pee pad, a sample of her food, and a blanket with her littermates on it. We are so happy with the newest member of our family and feel that we can go back to Kevin and Tina if we have any questions. We are excited to see what the future holds for Minnie, and we are excited to keep Kevin and Tina updated.

My husband and I recently just adopted our second puppy from the Edward’s. Charlie has been with us for 3 weeks and is a wonderful addition to our family. He is training well and has a sweet disposition. We adopted our first puppy from the Edward’s 7 years ago and we are happy to report that George has been a sweet and loving member of our family ever since. Both are healthy, playful and beautiful. The Edward’s were extremely helpful in providing information about the breed and any information about raising our dachshunds. We have been so pleased with our pups from the Edward’s that our adult daughter also adopted a little piebald dog from them 2 years ago. We can’t say enough good things about them and their beautiful pups.
Thank you Tina and Kevin

Finding the Edwards family and their amazing breeding has truly been a blessing to my family and myself. We have gotten 3 dachshunds from them and I just received the third one, my little lover boy. Their process is amazing because they truly strive to make sure the dog is going to a good home. Their application process is thorough and well done. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I am very thankful that I was able to go through them and find another one of my little furever friend.

When we first got Kai (at the time his name was Bubba) I was nervous and excited. Jacob and I had just started our relationship and I didn't want to get attached to a puppy that wasn't going to be mine in the end. That all changed as soon as we drove away. Kai peed on me 30 minutes into our 7 hour drive home and I fell in love immediately for some reason. I told Jacob right then, "If we break up I'm keeping the dog" lol.
Two years later I transitioned out of the Navy and Kai was with me every step of the way. It was one of the most difficult times of my life and I can honestly say that he saved my life. Thanks to the puppy you gave us I did not become one of the 22 veterans a day that decide to leave this world behind. I will forever be grateful for Kai and you guys for this reason alone.
Depressing note aside, Kai is amazing. He's got so much sass and drama and we love him with all our hearts. He's learned how to sit, lay, roll, play dead, fetch, come when called, walk off leash during hikes and roll down all the windows in our cars (Thanks Jacob). All these behaviors took A LOT of work and we still don't have letting go of the ball during fetch down but, thankfully (much to Kai's detriment) our boy is very treat motivated. He's also learned how to pretend to be injured by walking around with a limp when he wants extra love and he figured that out all on his own. It cost us an arm and a leg at the vet but Jacob and I would spend all that money every time. We also figured out how to know when he's pretending, we simply ask if he wants to go to the park or wants a treat. He immediately stops pretending and acts offended when we call him a faker. It's so funny!
We are super proud of him! Kai has had no other serious health complications aside from the scare we had with sand impaction last summer. We used to take him to the beach often (it's his second favorite place) to get his digging energy out and we didn't know the volume of sand he was indirectly ingesting would almost kill him. Thankfully he passed the sand and didn't require surgery. Jacob and I agree that it was the worst night of our lives. Because of our carelessness we almost lost our best friend. Needless to say we don't take Kai to the beach anymore.
Before this email gets any longer I'll try to start wrapping up lol. Kai gets complimented on how beautiful he is everywhere we go. He loves the attention! Currently we are working on some behavior modification when it comes to his interactions with other dogs so that he can have a brother or sister before he becomes too much of an old man lol. Jacob graduated in December and is working on his masters in Athletic Training and I graduate next spring and have applied to dental school so none of us are really ready for a new baby right away.
Kevin and Tina I just want to say that you guys are amazing and gave us one of the best gifts in our life to date. I can't thank you enough for your professionalism, exceptional breeding skills, and extraordinary care (see what I did there😉😂) that you put into the animals you send out into the world. The past five years with Kai have been really great and we look forward to the rest of our time with him. As we celebrate his 5th year we toast to you and wish you success and good health.
With all of our love and appreciation,

Dear Kevin and Tina,
Thank you so much for the wonderful addition of Annie to our family. She has bonded with Sammy (the first puppy we got from you a few years ago) so much and brought joy back to us after losing our older Dachshund last year.
We were so pleased with the time and care you put into each puppy, we decided to adopt another dachshund. Annie is very affectionate, playful, and has a wonderful temperament, which is exactly what we were looking for. She loves both people and animals, and is smart, picking up things very fast. You stay true to the breed and place the puppy's best interest first and foremost. The care you take in placing the right puppy with the right family is exceptional noting the application process and questions asked. Your breeding program is truly “extraordinary”.
We loved working with you and while we hope it is a very long time before we need to look for another dog, we know who we will be going to when the time comes. We would be glad to speak to any families looking for a reference on your behalf.
Thank you again for our new family member!

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Extraordinary Dachshunds and the experience we’ve had.
We previously worked with Kevin & Tina last year, to find our newest family member Bennie. They were amazing with all of the experience they had with the breed, their love and attention to the animals, and the vast knowledge of bringing a new family member home. They were so kind and truly love these puppies as their own family.
We decided it was time to bring another puppy into the family, and they were the only ones that we would consider. Since we had such an amazing experience with Bennie, we knew that we would only get our next baby from the Edwards.
Just as before, it was another wonderful experience! We saw our puppy on their website, and knew he was the one! We reached out, and they were wonderful to respond quickly, and helped us to work through the process. They were great about providing a lot of information and preparing us for our new addition.
We arranged for a meeting time, and just like before, it was an amazing experience. They are such kind and caring people. They love these animals, and want to make sure they go to the best home.
After arriving home, they’ve continued to reach out, and provide great information. I am so thankful that we were so lucky to find this amazing breeder. I couldn’t be happier, and have no doubt that you will be too!

We decided to add another pup to our pack and I looked nowhere other than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We got our first fur baby from them 3 years ago, so we already knew the care and devotion they have for each pup. Communication is open and honest, and they give a lot of support and information at pick up.
Oshie was a little overwhelmed at first with his new brother, but one day later, they‘re snuggling and playing, and I’ll think they’ll be besties!

Kevin and Tina, I cannot thank you enough for letting me adopt this man!!! He has such a great personality and is turning into a true momma’s boy!😂 The beginning of this week was a little rough as you know, he would not eat anything and it was truly concerning. Your continued support and suggestions (and yeah I tried them all) to get him to eat and to keep him from getting sick with hypoglycemia was absolutely priceless!!! I’m so grateful that you didn’t hesitate to respond with suggestions and help ASAP. Thank goodness he did respond to the suggestions and now is eating much better. The whole experience was overall one of the best I’ve had with a breeder ever. He is still adjusting and making friends with his brother and sisters, but your support is well appreciated. Sincerely Thank You doesn’t cover it.

Kevin/Tina: We wanted to pass along how happy we are with our new pup. The adoption process was informative and thorough, but not overwhelming. She is a beautiful little girl with a sweet disposition. She tolerated the drive home quite well and she has adjusted nicely to her new surroundings, including her new big brother Ralphie. Her first Veterinarian visit went very well and she is in perfect health. This has been a great experience. Thank you so much!

This is our second time purchasing a Dachshund from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We bought our first Dachshund Esther back a few years ago. She has been the most wonderful dog. Esther has such a gentle demeanor, her health has been outstanding and of course she is the most beautiful dog in a black and cream. About a year and a half ago we started looking to add to our family. I tried to stay in touch with Kevin and Tina to check on any upcoming litters. When I got the word that there was going to be some shorthairs in one of the upcoming litters I checked the website daily. As soon as we saw Emma we immediately contacted Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We picked up Emma and she is a wonderful dog. She is extremely smart and of course she is beautiful. I could not imagine going anywhere else to select a Dachshund other than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. I have a sense of peace and security knowing that they are responsible Breeders. I strongly believe that Kevin and Tina go above and beyond regarding the quality of their breeding and they are the BEST at what they do. I also think it’s wonderful how they are very serious about making sure each of their pets goes to the absolute perfect home. If we ever decide to get a third dachshund, there’s no question as to where we would go.
They are the BEST!

I had been searching for a long haired cream miniature dachshund for about 4 months when I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. It was highly recommended by a family friend who had a wonderful experience with Kevin and Tina. I think I studied every page on their website for days because of how thorough and insightful all the information was- they are so knowledgeable about all things dachshunds! I checked the website every day for a cream litter and then boom, there one was! There were the most beautiful, happy, healthy puppies on their page. I applied for a cutie cream female in the litter & I emailed all my information to them; I heard back with very involved questions ensuring that the puppy was going to a suitable owner. I could tell that they really cared about who was going to be taking care of their puppies. After I was approved, Kevin and Tina kept me updated up until pick up date. On pick up day, they even ensured we came from our town the right way and didn't get lost. We arrived to meet them in the beautiful countryside that they live in and met our puppy. It was such a pleasant experience at the exchange- they let us get comfortable with them there as we interacted with Rhody. Had all the paperwork ready to go, and even gave us a bag of food, toys, information, and other helpful puppies necessities. After a few days of having this puppy, she has brought more light to our world than Kevin and Tina could imagine. They are wonderful people and we are thankful they take such great care of every dog & puppy.
I highly highly recommend them to anyone who wants a dachshund- best decision ever!!!! And they made it easy:)
Thank you guys!!!

We had been searching for a long haired dachshund for about a year. We heard about Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds from a stranger in Pet Smart parking lot in Cumming Ga. This family was so happy with their new addition and could not say enough good about Edwards Dachshunds. If that family did not add comments for Kevin & Tina you can consider this a 2 in 1 recommendation as they recommended them to us. We decided to visit their website. We watched it for a few weeks. THEN, there she was. We knew she was the one when we saw her listed. We reached out to Kevin & Tina. They were quick to respond. They really care about the homes they put their babies in. After we were approved we put the deposit down and arrangements for pick up were made. Kevin & Tina communicated with us almost every day. They directed us step by step all the way thru pick up and then some. They are VERY knowledgeable about the breed and offer recommendations and education to assist. Our new baby made a 4 ½ hour trip with no issues. When we got her home she was ready to play immediately. You could tell she had been well taken care of and loved. She went to her first vet appointment and received a clean bill of health. I hope Kevin & Tina know what joy they bring into homes and with families by breeding and raising these wonderful babies the way they do. We love our new addition so much. We would absolutely recommend them and will probably use them again soon. Thank You Kevin & Tina. You guys are wonderful!

We adopted a new girl, adding to our home, from the Edwards. We have had doxies for over 20 years but this little girl is special!! We call her LJ and she is a bundle of energy. She was immediately happy to meet our older girls, only one of whom was happy to meet her initially. (Our Cherokee is laidback & not quite sure how to handle LJs energy.) LJ did give her the space she wanted & now they are just fine together. LJ is a smart little girl & very loveable.
Kevin & Tina spend a lot of time getting to know their prospective parents, so this is not the place to call one day & pick up a baby the next. They want to know that their babies are going to be as well loved in their new home as they were in their first home. They are willing to share any info the new parents need, answer any questions, and offer lots of advice on how to best care for your new baby, even for "seasoned" doxie parents!! It's all for love of the baby & the breed.
Kevin & Tina were very nice & certainly knowledgeable about dachshunds. They certainly love this breed & all their babies & want what is best for them. They have communicated throughout the process, both before & after adoption. I feel certain that if I have any questions or concerns, even a few years down they road, they will be willing to help. I also think that we will be looking to them in the future for any additions to our family.
We are very happy with this new addition to our Jeep dog family!!

My family and I recently purchased an English cream, Long hair boy from Kevin and Tina and we are so happy! Tina and Kevin had excellent communication throughout the process, answering our questions timely and thoroughly. They truly care about their pups and the breed as a whole. They know their stuff! Even after getting our boy home we had questions since we have not had a puppy in our home In 18 yrs and are thankful they are open to ongoing communication!
Thank you Kevin and Tina, we would highly recommend you to anyone.

We recently adopted a red, long haired boy from The Edwards. We are so extremely happy with our baby, Nathan. We can tell that Kevin and Tina really put a lot of love into their puppies, as Nathan is the sweetest, most healthy, and happiest little boy. They were very thorough with the entire adoption process, making sure these puppies go to a safe and loving home. Kevin and Tina were sure to walk us through everything we needed to know before and even after adoption as far as getting Nathan settled into his new home. Their website provided us with a lot of really useful information, and from first glance we could just see the amount of detail they have put into everything. We would highly recommend this breeder if you are thinking about adopting a miniature dachshund. They really do care about these babies.
Thank you so much again Kevin and Tina, we could not be happier.

For months I struggled to find a mini dachshund breeder on the east coast who did not have a waitlist that was over a year to 2 years long. I stumbled across the Edwards site and immediately fell in love with all the fur babies I saw. After months of looking at the available pups on their website, on a daily basis, I finally decided to reach out and inquire about Whiskey, is a miniature longhaired red male dachshund.
Although the screening process is long and tedious, it is clear that Kevin and Tina do it because they care deeply about their pups and want to ensure that they are being placed in their perfect forever home. Kevin and Tina also were very willing to meet me halfway in Christiansburg, VA, to pick up Morley, so I did not have to drive the 8 hour drive to TN.
Whiskey, is everything we could have asked for, if not more. He took a few days to get accumulated, but is now a playful and loveable pup who loves squeaky toys, treats and cuddles. He has brought so much joy into my life already and I cannot wait to see how he grows over the years.
Thank you Kevin and Tina for allowing me to bring Whiskey into his forever home and raising such a sweet boy!

Our dachshund Bear had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. We’d had him for 15 years and he’d been an intricate part of our lives. We also had another elderly dog & wanted a companion for her since she would be losing her best friend. When we knew his time was coming close, we decided to add another member to the family. We researched & came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Their website was very thorough, and we were so impressed by the information on their website.
We fell in love with “Benny”. I greatly appreciated their care into who was adopting their beautiful babies. It meant a lot to know they deeply cared what kind of forever home their baby would have. We were approved, and so happy to have a new addition to our family.
Since Bear’s health was declining, I reached out to see if we could pick up our pup earlier then discussed, and they were so generous to meet us early. Thankfully we were able to meet early to pick up Benny because the next day we lost Bear. Then sadly the day after that we also lost our sweet girl Cookie. We thank God that Benny was able to meet Bear & Cookie so a part of them will go on through him. I’m not sure what we would have done had we not had this precious puppy to come into our lives. He has helped to ease the pain and bring joy to what would have been a very dark time for our family.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about The Edwards, and what an exceptional job they’ve done raising these puppies! Our sweet boy is very healthy & was already potty trained! He has an amazing personality, very loving, beautiful, friendly, playful & very smart! We’ve already taught him to play fetch in the short time we’ve had him.
It was a wonderful experience to work with them and know that our puppy came from such wonderful caring people! We will definitely adopt from them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing Doxie puppy!

I had been wanting a puppy for so for so long but the timing and life just had not lined up. Finally the stars aligned and Kevin and Tina helped make my dream a reality! We drove down from Massachusetts and they were so helpful throughout the entire process of getting my dream pup. They gave tons of very helpful information! What I liked most is you can tell THEY REALLY CARE. They love these pups and are such kind loving people. Willa is such a beautiful, amazing and sweet pup, everything I dreamed she would be and more. I can’t thank them enough for this beautiful addition to my life.

I write with enthusiasm to recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone eager to adopt a dachshund. My family adopted Sage (a red, short-haired miniature dachshund) from the Edwards in June, when she was four months old, and she instantly became a cherished member of our family. From the start Sage has been altogether happy, healthy, playful and well-mannered, with both people and other dogs, who we introduced her to gradually. Whether chasing a toy, sunning herself on the lawn, or cozying up to my children for a scratch behind the ears, Sage melts our hearts daily. It is evident that she was well-cared for and deeply loved by the Edwards.
Speaking to the Edwards, and based on my experience with them, it is difficult for me to imagine how any other breeder could be more professional or devoted to the best interests of the dogs they are placing. The application process featured just the right amount of rigor to let me and my family know that they took very seriously their vetting of ‘forever homes’ for their dogs. They also were very responsive in answering my questions, and once the arrangements had been they kindly drove more than three hours to meet us half way for the hand-off of Sage. They stayed for a time at the travel center where we met to speak with my young son and I, to offer guidance on training and caring for Sage.
As I write, our new family member is gently pressing her nose against my foot, reminding me that it is time for her morning walk. So I will hastily close this review by saying that we renamed her to “Sage.” My wife and I have two boys, no girls. Sage was the name we picked out if we had a daughter.

For awhile I had been looking to adopt a dog and nothing seemed to work out. As I was about to give up on finding a dog to add to my family, I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and instantly fell in love with their beautiful puppies! Before emailing Mr. and Mrs. Edwards with my interest to adopt, I read their page thoroughly as there is a a lot of comprehensive, and very helpful information on their site with what the adoption process looks like, their purchase requirements, and even helpful tips on how to train your new puppy! From their website and the initial conversation I had with them to make sure I was the right fit to adopt one of their puppies, I knew they cared very much about what they do and were making sure that whoever they invited to be apart of their extended family would also care for the puppies as much as them. Overall I was very happy with the experience I had adopting my new fur baby and I cannot thank Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds enough for making my dreams to adopt come true!
I highly highly HIGHLY recommend them if you decide to adopt a dog!

There are not enough words to express how grateful I am for the Edwards. I lost my best friend, a little Yorkie, of 12 years a few months ago and never thought I'd love a dog ever again let alone want one. I've always adored dachshunds, and I felt as if it was time to open my heart again to another puppy; this time, a long, little bundle of joy. I tirelessly searched the internet for puppies available, almost giving up a countless amount of times due to scammers or no puppies available at all. I feel as if something pulled me towards their website, as they had one puppy left in the litter I first saw. I instantly was in contact with the Edwards, and they kept up the pace of responding to me every single day as we figured things out. Fast forward, I am typing this as I sit next to my sleeping little Oliver. My family and I decided to adopt a puppy from them, driving 4 hours to Tennessee, and when I tell you it was more than worth it, I mean it! He is the sweetest little dog I have ever seen in my life. I even started to cry when I saw him wrapped in a baby blanket! Helpful is an understatement when describing the experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. They were kind, thoughtful in the entire process (thorough yet worth it because they genuinely care), and stood with us in the heat to answer all the questions my family and I had. Everyone who sees him says he is just absolutely BEAUTIFUL. The whole street brought him presents and ADORES him! He is unbelievably beautiful and healthy and we are so so blessed to receive a little one this special. Two friends already went to check out their website and wanted a puppy just like Oliver. I would do it again in a heartbeat with them, and honestly, probably only them. Thank you to the Edwards for this amazing experience and to help make this traumatic year easier.

I came across the Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website once we decided we were ready for another fur baby. I visited their site multiple times, reading about them, their pups and their purchase requirements before finally reaching out to them.
I was immediately impressed with Kevin & Tina’s love for their babies and their determination to only place their pups in loving, forever homes. Their questions about our family, our home and suggestions for a safe environment were thorough and complete.
At pickup, we were provided with very detailed health records. This was very helpful for her first Vet visit where she got a clean bill of health. We’ve had our little Roxy for a week now. She’s a very affectionate, playful girl and a total joy to have around.
Our experience with the Edwards’ has been fantastic, they are indeed extraordinary and we highly recommend them to other doxie loving families.

For weeks i had been searching for another little one to add to my family, i came across the Edwards website, found Star and immediately fell in love with her. One that greatly impressed me was the way the Edwards were so picky about who adopts their babies, it was a long wait but well worth it. These little ones deserve only the very best out of life and I appreciate that they are screening the way they are. The Edwards were very nice and easy to work with and very helpful with any questions I had regarding my baby. I am very thankful for them and their dedication to the breed, will definitely adopt again from them. Thank you again so much.

We adopted two miniature dachshunds about two weeks ago from Kevin and Tina at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. The puppies were already 10 months old so we didn't know what behavior to expect from them. To our delight, the pups have wonderful personalities. Not only are they beautiful and healthy, they are friendly, playful, smart, and down right lovable. They love to sit on our laps and shower us with kisses; exactly what we wanted!
These charming fur babies are a perfect addition to our family.
The Edwards have done an exceptional job raising "Extraordinary" pups. We are very pleased with the whole experience. They were very pleasant and professional. We could tell that they really care about their babies health and well being as well as their futures. The information provided on their website was thorough and easy to understand. It was a pleasure working with them. We would definitely adopt from them again, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a great quality pet.

Recently we lost our baby Mandee to cancer after 12 years. We were devastated, decided we were not going to have anymore dogs, wrong, couldn't stand the loneliness, started to look on line, found Edwards extra ordinary dachshunds, we spotted Sally on their website she was the one, something just seemed right. We must try to get her, we went through screening with pictures of our house, etc. it was pretty tough but she is worth it. Got approved and scheduled to go pick her up, we met Tina as Kevin was under the weather. Sally was everything we expected and more, beautiful, we get compliments on her every where we go she is healthy, paper trained and our new best buddy, she has eased our pain immediately. She follows us everywhere, if you stop she will run into you. She sleeps between us every night very loveable she has been to vet very healthy girl. Thank you to Kevin and Tina for being there to raise doxies for people who need a loving companion. Please see them for a terrific and loyal friend you won't be disappointed they are strict to protect their babies just do this you won't regret it.

I realized tonight as I was holding Simone that I hadn’t yet given you my review for the website; apologies for the delay! She is a long-haired cream puppy that I purchased from you, Kevin & Tina. The process to purchase was incredibly thorough and I knew that from the questions being asked that this puppy was coming from a loving breeder and warm home. Simone (as she is now called) is just the sweetest, most loving puppy you could ask for, and I’m sure much of that can be attributed to her upbringing in Kevin & Tina’s home. She has been to the vet and has continually received a clean bill of health over the past four months since I picked her up. Simone has also adjusted quite well with her older “brother from another mother” Carlton. He was 2 years old when she joined our little family, and while stand offish at first (never mean), he has warmed up to having a little sister and they love playing together & snuggling constantly. Simone has the most beautiful English cream coat, and nearly daily she receives compliments and pets from strangers who admire her beauty. She’s very well-mannered and has shown no signs of aggression over food or toys; she’s just a sweetheart! Again, I thank Kevin & Tina for their wonderful upbringing of this puppy and for the meticulous inspection into ensuring this pup has a loving home – she is living a full and very happy life in Virginia. Thank you!

We recently adopted a sweet little cream girl dachshund, which we named Joy! Since she is almond color we named her Joy for Almond Joy! She has a 3.5 year old chocolate and cream dachshund big brother named Snickers, which we also adopted from the Edwards. We enjoyed our sweet boy so much, we began to think about a buddy for him!! When we got serious about it, the only place we even considered or looked at was the Edwards’ doxie’s!! They are great to work with! They are very knowledgeable about this special breed. They were always very responsive and helpful when we had questions especially with our first.....and like to continue to be updated on the puppies’ progress! Even though we had previously gone through them to adopt Snickers, they still had questions, wanted pictures, etc. of the home of where little Joy would be! A previous adoption is not an automatic approval without the process, because they are thorough and care about the home their babies go to. I appreciate that about them! Our Snickers has been healthy and has a very sweet disposition and I can tell already Joy too is very people friendly.....she loves everyone!
So, if you are looking for a healthy, sweet dachshund......you can certainly find one with these dachshund loving breeders! Thank you Kevin and Tina for these two sweet fur babies that have brought much fun, laughter and “joy” into this retired couple’s lives....our grandchildren adore Snickers and can’t wait to meet Joy!!

Kevin and Tina were awesome to work with. They are kind, loving, and welcoming. They are very thorough in their selection process for homes, which I appreciate. It let us know right off the bat that they love all of their babies. Our puppy, Pippin, is absolutely beautiful - he’s a long-haired black and cream. We’ve had him almost a month and everyone just gushes over how gorgeous he is. Not only that, he has done great since we got him home. He was 3 months old when we got him and was already using the puppy pad and responding to the word “no” which made his transition so much easier. We also can’t say enough about the Edwards’ knowledge of dachshunds. They had a ton of advice for us and just know their breed so well. Theirs also had a large selection on their updated website, which was unlike many breeders we looked at previously. We left the day of pickup with a blanket, toys, food sample, and document that detailed every worming and vaccine he had since birth in a very organized way. This made it very easy for our vet. If we decide to get another dachshund
(which we are already talking about!) - we will definitely head back over to East Tennessee!

I wanted to thank both of you for such a pleasant experience in adopting Lea and Leo. When I first visited your website I knew that you cared for your babies and that you wanted to ensure that they were placed in a safe loving forever home. After several email’s required in the adoption process, I finally received the one I most wanted and that I was approved to put a deposit down on my babies. I had a standard doxie for 12 years and had lost her recently. I knew she couldn’t be replaced but I also knew I needed another fur baby to love. My intention was to adopt one doxie but after looking at all the puppies that where available I fell in love with two. What a blessing that has turned out to be. When the day came to pick up my babies I was so nervous, taking on two puppies I knew that would be a challenge. To my pleasant surprise it has been very easy. I have to give all the credit to Kevin and Tina. I could tell from the first night that Kevin and Tina had spent a lot of time preparing their babies for the transition to their forever home. I could tell when it was time for me to take my babies home that it was not easy for the Edwards to let them go. They asked that I stay in touch and that if I ever had any questions to please contact them. On the first night home they both used the potty pads , ate a good supper and explored their surroundings, then slept all night. They have never barked and have slept every night without issue. Having a blanket to take home with me with their litters mates scent on it was so thoughtful. It made the transition from the Edwards home to mine so much easier for my babies. They are not shy and love attention. I have never laughed so much and been loved so much since picking up Leo and Lea.
I took them to the vet for a check-up and shots and she was so impressed as to how well they had been cared for. They both had clean ears, nails trimmed and well mannered. Also, having the records of all the shots already given and information about each puppy allowed the vet to know exactly what was needed that visit. When I am showing off my babies I always mention the Edwards and how wonderful they are to work with and how much they care about their babies.

My husband and I picked up our little guy a little over eight months ago now, and are still so in love. We named our pup Adler, and I honestly think he gets cuter every day! He adjusted to his new surroundings quickly, and loves playing with his sister Abby who is an eight year old black lab. Adler has the sweetest disposition, and loves to cuddle. He goes with me everywhere!
I’m grateful for all the questions Kevin and Tina asked throughout the process. It is obvious how much they care for their pups, and it’s comforting knowing they really are looking for good homes for their babies.
I would highly recommend Kevin & Tina to anyone looking for a Dachshund puppy!
Thank you both so much for such a wonderful little guy.
My heart truly feels happy.

We recently purchased a beautiful short haired miniature dachshund from Kevin and Tina and it was a wonderful experience. Our little girl is just perfect and we are already madly in love with her. From our first e-mail contact with Kevin and Tina, they were very prompt and thorough in all our correspondence. From our first e-mail it was abundantly clear that Kevin and Tina are very passionate about their dogs and ensuring that their puppies are placed with loving families. When I met Kevin and Tina, they were extremely helpful with answering all my questions and they set me up for success with our new baby girl. Our puppy was healthy, alert, and the happiest little soul. We drove the eight hours home and the puppy slept peacefully the entire ride home. As soon as she met our daughters, she woke up and they have been inseparable ever since! Overall Kevin and Tina have been amazing and we highly recommend them and their pups!

We recently purchased a sweet puppy from the Edwards and have been thrilled with our happy, healthy little girl! Kevin and Tina are wonderful breeders and take great pride in their breeding business. They show great concern for their pups and are very careful about who they accept as adoptive parents. They ask the right questions to assure the puppy is going to a safe and happy home! Their website is full of helpful information and tips on how to have a successful transition to your puppies’ new home! After doing an extensive search for a puppy their website and attention to details stood out far above any others, thus making our choice an easy one!
My husband and I would highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking to adopt a new furbaby.

Kevin and Tina have been so great through the entire adoption process of our little fur baby. You can tell how much they care about what they do and make sure all their babies are healthy and going to great homes. They have sent us numerous suggestions and helpful information on how to get your puppy adjusted to their new environment along with open communication if anything should come up in the future.
I would absolutely recommend these breeders!

We recently purchased a beautiful little puppy from the Edwards and were very impressed with the whole experience!
Our family had never owned a pet before and we were a bit nervous after some not so good experiences in trying to communicate with another breeder, but the Edwards are amazing people who really care about their puppies and where they go and that put us at ease. They answered all the questions we asked. We were looking through litters when we came across Butternut and we knew she was the one. We got in contact with Kevin and Tina and they responded right away. They required us to give a lot of information and pictures, which only showed us how much they cared for the pup’s safety. After a few more emails, we were accepted and able to put a deposit on her!
Our family had a hard time waiting for the day until we could pick her up, but it finally came and we started the road trip to TN. We updated the Edwards on our location and they gave us very clear directions on how to get to their house. Once we arrived, Tina came out with the little puppy in her arms wrapped in a blanket. The Edwards then gave us with her previous shot records, gave us tons of valuable information on what to do once we got home, and gave us a gift bag with toys and a sample food bag and more. They were extremely nice and answered all of our questions! During the 10 hour road trip our puppy hardly cried at all. She fell asleep in my daughters lap and was amazing the whole ride.
When we got home she used her pee pads, which was really a bonus for us. She actually cried more on the second night than the first, but that can be expected with a new puppy. She didn’t eat or drink for the first day, so we contacted Kevin and Tina and they told us what to do and not to worry. We have had her for a week now and she is eating, drinking, sleeping through the night (except to go potty), and playing with the whole family.
We are so happy and thankful for our joyful little puppy and can’t thank the Edwards enough! The only other thing I want to mention is that no matter how cute they look in the pictures, they won’t even compare to how adorable they are real life! Thank you so much Kevin and Tina for the smooth and amazing process and if we ever want another mini dachshund we will definitely come back here!
If you’re looking for a sweet little miniature dachshund in your life, the Edwards are breeders who really care about the perfect homes for their puppies, and that means taking into account your life situations and making sure you’re the perfect family for one of their puppies. :)

I was searching for a Dapple Dachshund when I came across Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. The info, pictures, and reviews on the page had me sold. Any questions I needed to ask were on the website or Kevin and Tina answered with no problem. I live in GA and buying a puppy in TN, I was nervous, but Kevin and Tina have a wonderful process that made me feel at ease. They asked questions about where the puppy would live and the lifestyle it would lead,because they don’t sell puppies they place puppies. This process made me feel comfortable knowing they took time to get to know the potential parents. I knew if this was their standards; then I knew the puppy was coming from a wonderful home. I was right! They communicated with us every step of the way and gave us excellent service when we arrived to pick up our new pup. They explained everything, answered questions, and asked to stay in connect with us as the little one adjusted. We absolutely love our new puppy!!! We named him Euro! He is beautiful & healthy.
I would highly recommend Edward’s Dachshund for their EXTRAORDINARY SERVICE.

What a wonderful experience finding our new addition to our family with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Last April we loss our little 13 year old Daisy with complications of being diabetic. Heartbroken we needed time to heal before looking for another pet. This past fall we had started talking about maybe it was about time to start thinking about looking around for a breeder. Our home was just to quiet and lonesome for the both of us without a pet. We had always had a furbaby....all the years when we were raising our children and then with the empty nest we continue to always have a pet so it was time for us to go out on that adventure again and add to our family. I was in hopes that we might find a good breeder in our area but what we found just didn’t feel right when I would talk with them. I continued to look at everything that was within a hundred mile radius but still coming up with a bad feeling in my gut. We were looking for a good baby, not a poor puppy mill pet. I knew that my sister that lives in IN. had purchased a beautiful Piebald from a place somewhere up in the Smokies about five years ago. He’s a handsome boy. My husband is partly disabled so I was sure trying to fine a good breeder without having to travel very far. Telling my sister what a hard time we were having finding anything that I felt right about. She encouraged me to look at Edwards web site. I did and the more I read the better I felt like this is where I need to go even if it was not very near where we live. I contacted them with an email and begun my journey to find our new baby. It made me feel like we for sure had found the right place by all the questions they ask. It made me feel like they were very concerned where their babies went. I had not had that experience with any of the other breeders I had talked to. We email back and forth several times because they needed to know as much as possible about us to see if they could consider us as adoptive parents for one of there beautiful puppies. Oh how happy we were when the email came saying we were approved. We were dreaming of a chocolate baby girl and on Jan.13 Bubbles had a beautiful litter. There she was.....the only chocolate..... and precious right in the middle of a litter of dapples. We sent our deposit immediately. The time came to go pick her up and we were so excited. Three hundred miles one way.... it rained all the way with lots of fog but we made it. We stayed over in a little town near by and not far from them. The next morning we made our Journey to their beautiful place high on their mountain.... what a beautiful area. Was met by Kevin at the door and there Tina stood with our little darling all wrapped in a sweet baby blanket. My heart melted...my eyes teared....and it’s complete love at first sight. Kevin and Tina were a joy to meet and so easy to talk to. They were eager in answering my many questions.... giving me so much helpful information. They prepared a sweet little gift bag with toys, food dish, pee pad for the car ride. This was so appreciated. There was a little baby blanket that had the litter sent on it which was so comforting to our baby all the way home. We then started our trip back and it rained and there was fog and it also stormed. It was a slow hard three hundred miles home but oh so worth it. She is doing Great and the Vet said she was healthy and from fine stock and beautiful. We are so happy with our new baby girl. This has been a wonderful experience. We would highly Highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anybody that’s looking for a Great Breeder and a wonderful Quality Puppy. When the time comes for another baby we won’t ever consider looking anywhere else. A big Big thank you to Kevin and Tina.

Thank you Kevin and Tina for the great adoption experience. We picked up Toby two weeks ago and he adjusted very quickly. It’s clear that Kevin and Tina love what they do and take great pride in providing healthy, happy puppies, and top-notch service and support. They truly care for their puppies, even after puppy leaves to their new homes.
Kevin and Tina have a rigorous vetting process to ensure the puppies have save and happy homes.
They also provide tons of information and advice based on their vast expertise and experience.
Receiving Toby already puppy pad trained was a huge plus.
We highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if your looking for healthy, great looking miniature dachshunds.

We bought our baby from the Edwards. We bought ours at 12 weeks old and she was the sweetest baby in the world. She was completely healthy. We got her and she was already completely potty pad trained. She has been doing amazing. She is honestly the sweetest puppy ever. Even the Vet. was just shocked with how sweet and cuddly she is.
The application might look intimidating but I promise if you really want the addition it is worth it. Dogs are a long term commitment so the application is not a big deal at all. They are always there to answer your questions and concerns.
Just wanted to thank y’all again she is everything we could’ve expected and more.
I could not recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds enough.

Once we found your website and spotted Paco we knew this was the one. You responded so quick. We highly appreciated the process and knew you loved these puppies. Paco is such a beautiful sweet puppy and we can not wait to see him grow. We thank you for being so helpful and answering all our questions. Your website is full of wonderful information.

We came across Kevin & Tina’s website during our search for an adult dachshund to adopt. Initially, we were really impressed with how informative and thorough their website was. We made an inquiry with the hopes of adopting Pearl. The process took longer than we anticipated, but we came to understand and fully appreciate their process because it is all done for the love of their beautiful babies. They truly want to make sure that each adoption will be as close to a perfect fit as possible. Once we were approved, they also worked with us to make the timing of our pickup appointment to be what would be best for Pearl. And even now that we’ve had Pearl a few weeks, they still check in every so often just to see if all is going well and whether we need any tips or advice.
As for our new baby Pearl, she is such a sweet girl! She is good natured and you can clearly tell she has been raised in a loving home. She came to us very healthy and got a clean bill of health from the vet who was also impressed with how perfectly clean her ears were. She is adapting to our family very well and her personality is really starting to shine through. We’ve had her 3 weeks and she has made a lot of progress on house training. She is becoming a good little sister to our 7 y.o. dachshund Petie and we all love her very much already.
We highly recommend Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking to adopt a dachshund of any age. If we decide to adopt another doxie in the future, we definitely won’t go anywhere else. Thank you Kevin & Tina for the love you share through these beautiful animals!

We just picked up our sweet baby a couple days ago and as soon as I saw his precious little face, I knew he was perfect for us. We had a 6 hour car ride and he was an angel. He didn’t get sick and slept most of the way. He’s still learning his way around, and trying to figure things out at home, but he LOVES to be held and snuggle and play with his little ball given to us in the thoughtful care package provided at pick up. We are trying to potty train and so far, he’s only had 1 accident off the pee pad. It’s obvious Kevin and Tina put so much love and care into their puppies. They want to make sure they all go to the right home and were very thorough with the instructions and information to help us all with the transition. After researching several options and almost being scammed with other “breeders”, we were happy to find their website and we will highly recommend them to all of our friends looking for a mini dachshund in their lives.
The Stevenson family - Haymarket, VA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 2013, we dog sat for two weeks for a friend who had a miniature dachshund and fell in love. Immediately when my friend came to pick her up, I began my quest to find a similar miniature dachshund to add to our family. I stumbled upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and looked no further. I was so impressed with everything about the process (from them interviewing me, to wanting to know more about other animals/pets in our family to the truly "extraordinary" care that they went about in explaining how to care for a mini, what to expect, etc. Once we adopted Maybelle (formerly Pebbles) our hearts were full and she has been the most loving, sweet, sugar lump I have ever adopted. My husband made ramps for both areas of our deck as well as a ramp onto our bed and he even made her her own baby bed that is an extension of our bed and has 3 sides and an open top so that she could never roll off or fall out. Flash forward 5 years, Maybelle is thriving and loving life but we felt it would be good for her and US to contact Kevin and Tina so we could begin the adoption process again. I had been on their website (yes, I admit, as I do every month or so just to check out the new pups) and I ran across the most beautiful little baby, Dolly and I knew she would be perfect for our family. We picked up Dolly yesterday and she was so good on the ride home. When we got home, she was napping a lot (probably due to the most active day of her life thus far) but then she got her 2nd wind late in the evening and starting eating and going potty on her pee pads and even playing a little. She slept almost all night her first night here and today she has been a joy to have around. She is eating well, going potty, playing and making this doggie mom really happy to see her in such good spirits after leaving the loving home of Kevin and Tina to move to ours. My husband and I decided that we will probably adopt another in the future, perhaps every 4 or 5 years, just to keep all stages of the dachshund life cycle alive in our home. We have fallen in love with this breed and probably will never own another breed (it's hard to match PERFECT).
Thanks Kevin and Tina for all you do for the babies prior to them leaving your home!
I highly recommend you to all who want to add a dachshund to their family!

First I would like to say thank you so very much Kevin and Tina for allowing us to be Molly,s forever home. I will recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to everyone. Kevin and Tina not only love their babies, they also really care who their forever home is go to be with. I lost my chocolate and tan female dachshund of 14 yrs very recently. She was the love of my life and it left a large hole in my heart. So i started my search for a new baby to fill that void in my heart. I searched the web and found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, contacted them and began the process of adopting our new baby. After several emails the day came to pick up or new baby, when Tina put Molly in my arms for the first time, it was love at first sight. That hole in my heart was instantly filled.
Thank you Kevin and Tina for your dedication and all that you do!
God bless you!

"Kevin and Tina have been very helpful with this whole puppy process. They provide a ton of helpful information and are the MOST thorough breeders I have ever met. They care about their puppies deeply and make sure they are going to the best home they possibly can and do it for a very fair and reasonable price instead of just focusing on making money and giving them to anyone and everyone without knowing anything about the person or where they may be going. They are very responsive, professional, and on top of things. They are accommodating with picking your puppy up, whether you go to their house or they meet you somewhere. Both Kevin and Tina are very pleasant and nice to work with and I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a high quality and good looking miniature dachshunds. I love my new puppy and am so glad to have found them via Google search!

We have had our boy 5 weeks today! After the first night, he has slept all night, every night. Our 2 yr. old dachshund didn’t warm up to him at first. It took around 3 weeks (or more) before she considered him her best friend..ha ha. Now, she looks for him and they love napping together. He is still learning the ropes, but hopefully she will help him out more now. He is a cuddle bug and we love that!
Some things we felt were wonderful in our puppy purchase process were the fact you asked questions. I had no problem answering any questions or sending pictures from our home to show we were serious about adopting a puppy. It showed us you care where your puppies are going and what home environment they will have. And the deworming/vaccination schedule you have was spot on. The provided documentation told us everything we needed to know to provide to our vet. We very much appreciated your working with us for a scheduled pick up date.
We are having fun watching our puppy grow. He is so friendly and loves everyone he meets. Everyone comments on his beautiful eyes! Thanks again for a great addition to our family.

We hope that this email finds you both well!
Now that we are all settled in, we wanted to give you an update on our little Cali.
The first few weeks were rough at night time, but she’s settled in well now and knows that when its lights out, she goes to her bed and we go to ours. It was a hard concept for her grasp at first, but she’s finally got it. She has since gone to the vet twice.
As far as her personality, she’s an absolute love bug and eager to please (sometimes!) She now knows, 'sit', ‘paw', ‘down' and ‘jump'. We’re currently working on ‘stay’ - but its proving to be a bit of a challenge for a puppy her age! Watching her grow over the last 4 weeks has been such a treat. This tiny little pup that we were scared to bring home is growing to be a sweet, curious, smart and confident gal. We love taking her out and seeing how much she enjoys to meet new people from all walks of life. The fact that you start training the puppies with pads has been extremely helpful. We anticipated far more accidents than she’s actually had, so that has been really nice for us. She absolutely loves the toys you gave her, and we’ve also added a quite a few to her collection. We’d like to let you know that dealing with you has been a very pleasant experience from start to finish. The detailed questions you ask only proves that you’re looking for the best possible family for your puppies. We have since given your contact information to a few people, including a Doxie Mom on our flight back to Miami. We’ll continue to recommend you to anyone looking for a happy, healthy Dachshund. Naturally, we were extremely hesitant to buy a puppy ‘online’ and had really only been looking locally until we stumbled across your website. What a wonderful decision we made in adding Cali to our family.
She’s already brought us so much joy, and we look forward to many, many years with her by our side.

It's been about a month now since I've had Oskar at home and he's been an absolute joy. I deeply appreciate the time, care and love Tina and Kevin put into raising their pups. It can be tricky getting a pup from afar, going on little more than a picture, so when I came upon Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds, I knew I had found the right place. All of the questions they asked about the environment in which the pup would be living, and whether I had thought through all of his needs, reassured me that they put a tremendous amount of care and concern into raising and placing their pups. Oskar was a little wary during the long car ride home from Tennessee, but he settled in within hours. As I watch him race around playing with a toy right now, it's hard to believe he's already been with me for several weeks, and hard to imagine not having this little guy in my life.

My boyfriend and I recently adopted a puppy from the Edwards and it has been a wonderful experience from start to finish. We found their website after countless hours of searching for the best breeder for us. Their website was very impressive and thorough! We found a pup that caught our eye and knew instantly he was the one we wanted. We sent them an email and they emailed back very fast. Their adoption process involves a lot of questions and effort on the buyers end but this made us super comfortable as we knew they cared for these puppies immensely. The weeks we had to wait to get our new baby felt like forever but the day finally came and we got to meet the Edwards and our new addition Obi. The Edwards were extremely nice and explained everything to us. We could tell the puppy was well cared for the second we saw him. We're now home back in Pennsylvania and all settled in and he has been the best pup! Obi is such a happy puppy and such a joy to watch. He is very well behaved and super comfortable around all the people he's met so far! He's a little lover and you can tell he was loved on from the second he was born. He's very well adjusted - noises don't phase him whether it's the vacuum, the tv, or trucks driving by! The vet told us we have a super healthy puppy and gave him a clean bill of health. We can't wait to watch Obi grow and he is the best addition to our little family! We would definitely recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone looking for a great puppy coming from a great breeder. We certainly know we'll make the long trip back to Tennessee if we ever want another dachshund!! We can't thank them enough.

After loosing my beloved dachshund I had for thirteen years, I found myself pondering if the timing was "right" to get another "baby". I did some soul searching and decided it was time and I adopted my new baby "Oakley" from Kevin and Tina. Without a doubt this was the best decision. I did not know Kevin and Tina and happened to stumble on their website. I had spoken with some other prospects but as soon as I received the first communication from Kevin and Tina, I had a sense of comfort that they truly cared about each "baby" and their goal was to make sure each one was placed in a loving environment. I knew this is where I wanted to adopt my next baby. I completed the process required by Kevin and Tina (which is detailed but very much in every one's best interest) and put my deposit on Oakley. I drove over from Asheville, NC to pick up my new baby and it was truly love at first sight. Oakley snuggled immediately. Every single day I truly ask myself how I got so lucky to get a baby with such a sweet temperament. He is full of energy, loves to play but when he gets tired he wants nothing more than to snuggle. I have been very pleased with potty training. Kevin and Tina started with pee pads and all I had to do is put one outside in a confined area and he has only had one tiny accident(of course I have to keep a close eye and take him our frequently). He is already walking with a harness and is not afraid to explore. He isn't startled easily by noises and is very loving towards people (he isn't shy). There is no doubt that Kevin and Tina work with each baby to prepare them for the transition into a new loving environment and I am so appreciative. After I left with my new baby, they kept in touch to make sure the transition was going well. I highly recommend the Edwards if you are searching for a new baby. As I stated, I did not know them previous to this adoption and just as anyone, my biggest fear was finding a baby that wasn't healthy or came from a "puppy mill". This is not the case with - Kevin and Tina, they are truly the "real deal". It is evident they love the breed, they love each baby and their top priority is making sure each and every one has a long, happy and healthy life. I am just very happy and love my new baby, Oakley!

I had known for a while that I had wanted a dachshund and for the last two years I did research, but was always brought back here. When I was finally ready to bring a Doxie into my life it’s no wonder I reached out to the Edwards. They are so thorough with their questions you can tell they won’t let these precious babes go to just anyone. I adopted my Vienna and she was a doll from the start. She knew how to use a pee pad, she loved to give kisses, and she goes down for her nap in her bed no problem. I could keep bragging forever but I will say if you’re looking for a breeder of QUALITY dachshunds you’ve come to the right place.

We just recently decided to add another addition to our family and while searching for dachshunds stumbled across the Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds web page. The whole process from start to finish was very detailed and easy to understand. From the questions asked you could really understand that they care for their puppies very much and want nothing but the best for them. We had a great experience and would definitely go to them again.

We made a six hour drive to pick up our little girl, Stella. She is a blessing in our life. This blue eyed girl was wrapped in a baby blanket when I first saw her. I was immediately in love! My heart melted. She is developing the cutest personality! Full of love and loves to play and cuddle. She is eating, drinking, and napping and learning something new everyday! Kevin and Tina are the best! Very professional, educated, and organized. I felt comfort in knowing Stella was coming from a loving, caring place. They won’t let just anyone have these puppies. They make sure the baby is going to a forever home that will provide love and care that they need. On pickup day, we received a goodies bag, information on which vaccines she needs in the future, and tips for success on our pup!
We definitely recommend the Edwards for adopting a Dachshund from.

Since our blk/tan passed 1 & half years ago, our home has just not been the same. After 15+ years of having a “ fur baby” in the house, the silence had become VERY loud and we started looking for a new baby off and on for months. We had an idea of what we wanted in a new baby but she was very difficult to find; as she is unique in her beautiful colors, and one blue eye.
Finally….It was by God’s grace that we stumbled upon the Edward’s website and we are so IN LOVE with Izzie Bee. She has brought “life” to our home again and already such a blessing to us. She was definitely worth the 12 hour drive to their beautiful hill-top farm home – one way!
I can’t say enough great things about the Edward’s and the way they operate their adoptions. You know immediately that they are very detailed, concerned and want only the BEST Forever Home for their babies. It actually gave us comfort in knowing they were so thorough, not only explaining the process in great detail but wanting to know about our family in great detail to ensure the proper placement. “Extraordinary” certainly lives up to its name, not only with their babies but the entire process!
When we are ready to add another baby, only “Extraordinary” will be the option!
Thank you Kevin and Tina for blessing us with Izzie Bee and bringing life back to us!
God Bless

My husband and I purchased two long haired dachshunds over the years from the Edwards- one male and one female. These pups brought us such joy and enriched our lives so much that we made the decision to adopt “just one more” to complete our furry family. We found a real cutie pie when we saw Pat last month on their website (who is actually our male dog’s stepbrother!) So, we decided to make the trip from Atlanta to their beautiful home in scenic East, TN. We loved Pat’s unique markings (black and white with extreme ticking (freckles). He has a fantastic personality, is so well adjusted and took to his new home right away. This is all due to the fact that Kevin and Tina raise their pups in their home and make them part of their family, giving them all lots of love and attention from the beginning. He is already doing well with his potty training - pee pads right now until he completes his vaccines as we do not want him to go outside too much yet. We decided to rename him Oliver, which means “elf warrior” as he is truly fearless in his quest to explore his new surroundings.
Since we had never had a pup so young at 8 weeks, Kevin and Tina explained the shots still needed, gave us the detailed records of vaccinations already given and many other good tips for raising a young puppy. They are very detailed with puppy care tips and really love the breed.
This is why they are so particular with who will be purchasing one of their “extraordinary” puppies. If you are looking for a well-bred, AKC dachshund with good temperament and quality, then the only breeder you should consider to purchase your new pup is through Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!
Thank you and have a great day!

What an amazing dog we got from you guys. Its like he's always been with us. He started by using his pee pad and was eating and drinking last night. I got up with him 2 times the first night then he was ready to go back to sleep.
He's playing with his toys and napping. He's such as joy.
I just wanted to say thank you for all the care and pride you all are putting in these dogs. It shows in mine. He's just perfect!!! He's laid back, his coat is to die for, he's healthy and no bad habits so far.
Thank you for such a amazing baby we love him.

We began our search for a mini Dachshund after a traumatic injury was suffered. All the extra time at home opened the space in our hearts to welcome a fur baby. We searched many breeders trying to find the right one. When we came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund we found what we had searched for.
Originally, we had our eye set on a puppy that Kevin and Tina had already promised someone else. We maintained positive and about a week later they listed an adorable puppy. We acted as quick as we could to prevent missing another puppy. Kevin and Tina accepted my inquiry and began their consideration. Reflecting on it now I’m grateful for their thoroughness. I would be heartbroken to imagine my sweet boy in the care of a negligent person. After some time had passed we were approved and our excitement skyrocketed. We then began preparation for our puppy. Kevin and Tina were there to offer advice the whole time. We did have a 400 mile trip to get to him but it was well worth it. Give the breeders time to get your puppy ready and you won’t regret it. They brought our puppy to us smelling great and well groomed. It was evident he had been well cared for by them. They are fantastic and if looking for another mini Dachshund I would go back to no one but them.
Our puppy did begin to cry after we first got him into the car. It was expected as his world completely changed. He did not have any accidents on the trip home. However, upon entering the home he immediately began to poop and pee. We keep potty mats out for him but he doesn’t always make it to them. He also has a nibbling problem. lol Anything he can get his mouth onto he will. Truth be told if you are not prepared for these puppy tendencies get a cat or fish. Most puppies will be a great deal of work and require much attention. This is all outweighed during the moments they are relaxing and being well behaved. If you are sure a Miniature dachshund is what you need in your life look no farther than Kevin and Tina.
Thank you.

We happened to stumble across this web page and are so glad we did! We had been looking for a new family member for a while and we came across our Rosalie with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and had to immediately inquire. We instantly fell in love!
The Edwards family responded in a thorough and quick manner; you could really tell they take their time to try to get as good of a feel for a future home as possible. They were so polite and professional but also kind and just seemed like great people. We finally got our approval and drove from the coast to pick up our girl. She’s a beach bum now!
We spent some time talking with them and they explained everything in detail. We loved the personable touch, they didn’t just do a quick ‘in and get out’ process. We felt even better about our decision after pick up. The goodies bag was the sweetest touch and we are so very happy. A few hours after we left, they kept in touch to make sure we got home safely and everything was okay.
I would absolutely recommend this family to anyone looking to add a sweet dachshund to their home! We are thrilled with our decision.
Thank you Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!

Officially first night home with our new puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds! As I have never had a child, I don't know what it is like to have a baby, however I can imagine the feeling is similar to bringing a dog into your family. I adopted Corona from Cookie's Cream liter. She has brought nothing but joy (and a little sleeplessness at night) to my life already! From the moment I saw her wrapped in her little pink blanket, I loved her with all my heart.
Kevin and Tina are very thorough with who they decide to approve for their puppies, which shows they love and care for them very much. From how often we communicated, I felt extremely comfortable with purchasing a dog from them! We drove from Central Illinois to come get our pup, so trusting them was extremely important before making the 16 hour round trip drive. It was completely worth it for my little girl!
Upon pick up, they go over all of the puppy's medical records, what shots they have gotten and still need, and how they have been feeding them and potty training them so far. They have a little goodie bag with some toys, food, and other things to help with the new baby.
I am so amazed with my little girl, and I have Kevin and Tina to thank for that! Even after we picked up our little girl, they have been in communication to ensure a safe trip back. I am excited to keep in touch and let them know how my baby grows up!! Thank you Kevin and Tina!!

We adopted little Collin from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and are absolutely in puppy love. He is so sweet and cuddly, yet still ALL puppy. It is very easy to see that he had a wonderful first three months of life with Kevin and Tina. They were so helpful during the adoption process and continued to be there for us after we brought him home. It is easy to see that they truly care for each and every puppy as if it were their own child. We love little Collin to the moon and back, and look forward to many years of fun, love, and companionship with him. We are very grateful to Kevin and Tina and would highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking for a sweet puppy to love.

Dear Kevin & Tina,
We’ve barely had Grace for 48 hours and we are so in love with her, our hearts are melting every time we look her or hold her. Perfect is not even the right for for her as she is more than that. Full of spunk and clearly with her own personality she will join cousin Elvis (Calep) this evening. We cannot wait to introduce them! I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for her and really again for both of them. As I mentioned to you on Saturday, Elvis, and now Grace, has brought so much love into our home that it is palpable. Your high standards for bringing into this world and raising healthy, happy, and beautiful animals I feel is so special. I appreciate your attention to detail at every step of the process, how you’ve kept in touch, and your clear dedication to placing your pups in good, safe homes with families that will love them all of their lives. I can assure you that is the case with us. We could not love them more.
Thank you again and we will be in touch soon.
Warmly.

We have purchased two puppies from the Edward’s now and could not be more happier! About a year and half ago one of our red short haired dachshunds passed away suddenly which left us devastated and yearning to fill the void. We began looking on line for reputable dachshund breeders and kept coming back to the Edward’s website. We were impressed with information that they provided on their site. Well we saw little “Colt” fka “Corbett” and just fell in love! We than began the screening process for adoption. I was happy that the Edward’s asked for specifics on what kind of home that the baby would be going into. It made us confident that they truly cared about what kind of home their babies are placed in. We drove 3 1/2 hours to pick up our new baby and couldn't be happier! Kevin went over all the information that we would need for our little man. I sat in the back seat and played and snuggled with him all the way home! He was such a sweet and curious puppy. It was obvious that the Edward’s spend a lot of time with their puppies getting them socialized and ready for their new homes. We had always had rescues in the past and had never brought a puppy that young into our home so was not quite sure what to expect. We are so glad we did. Everyone who comes into our home comments on how loving and calm Colt is. He is also highly intelligent. Our vet also can’t get over what “good stock” he is. He is a beautiful long haired fawn and tan doxie and it has been a joy to watch him grow. My husband called him the “Gerber Baby” of dachshunds! When Colt turned one, we began thinking it was time to get him a playmate. There was never a question about where to go. We always knew that we wanted another “Edward’s Extraordinary”! So one day I am on their website and see “Honey Dew” and fall in love all over again. I knew he would be Colt’s perfect playmate. We contacted the Edward’s and asked to adopt him. We took another journey back to the scenic Surgoinsville to pick up our new baby who we now call Blaser. He is so very precious and beautiful. He is a perfect short haired red with the sweetest personality! He likes to lay his head on my shoulder and cuddle. Colt loves him already. It was so good to see Kevin and Tina again and to tell them how much we have enjoyed Colt and what joy he has brought us. And now with little Blaser, we have a double portion! The Edward’s are not about “selling puppies”, they care about preserving good blood lines and the integrity of the breed. That is what is so impressive about Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds and that is why we would always go back to them for a miniature dachshund. They are the only dachshund breeder we would recommend.
Thanks again Kevin and Tina for sharing these little babies with families like us who are crazy about this breed!

We feel so fortunate to have found two loving and caring breeders to get our puppies from after losing the last dachshund we had. We fell in love at first sight and had to take both, even though we couldn't tell from the picture that Millie was truly a little bitty thing. She is tenacious and holds her own! They had told us that. Our Vet was really taken with how beautiful they are and perfect in every way. They truly help keep each other company.
We have had our two girls a little more than a month. They are so loving, curious and very smart little girls. They are adjusting to their lightweight collars, are LOVING running and playing in our fenced-in back yard. They have already both learned to come on command. Emmy Lou brings the little tennis ball back when it is thrown for lots of praise and good girl phrases. Millie is still working on bringing back the ball, even though she has done so twice.
They both use the bathroom on their pee pee pads and when they go outside with us they pee and poop with lots of praise.
They have a crate with no door on it and they love spending time in it as well as their bed and the warm blankets from the clothes dryer and music at bedtime.
They are just everything we could want in a dog that gives us unconditional love times 2!
We thank the Edwards for giving them such a great start in life and being excellent breeders and trainers.

We are so thrilled to have a new member of the family, Willy. Willy is black and white (piebald), we had never seen a dachshund with this pattern. The Edwards were great about educating us about Willy's colors and also everything else dachshund. They were great to work with. Meeting them was a pleasure after our long drive. They greeted us with smiles and of course our cute little puppy. The Edwards will require you answer many questions about the potential home of one of their babies but it is all in good will. They really care about the dogs and where they end up. It was reassuring to know we were dealing with great people. We could not be happier with our new puppy. He is potty training well, sleeping through the night and has such a fun personality that lights up our home.
I would recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone!
Thank you again.

We were proud owners of a Dachshund for 15 years. She passed away last year and we have never really been ready to get a replacement until recently. We spent a great deal of time looking for options in the Tennessee area. We finally decided on Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshund, because face it, we didn’t want just any Dachshund but an extraordinary one. We were impressed by their website. It was very clear and concise about requirements to own and purchase. It showed us that they won’t just adopt to anyone and this was important to us. We decided on one of the available puppies “Bretta” and emailed them about our intentions. There were several back and forth emails as they kept asking more questions about how we would raise her and what kind of home she would be in etc. Some might view this as excessive but we viewed as caring. When the agreement was made we hopped in the van and made the 3 ½ hour journey to their place. A beautiful home on top of a hill with a spectacular view. They were very pleasant people and you could shortly tell how important these puppies were to them. They were very detailed on how Bretta was cared for so that we could try to adapt her to our home as seamlessly as possible. They talked about how much their extended family grows each year as many of the customers keep in constant contact with them regarding the growth and life of the puppies they had adopted. You could tell this was a source of pride for them. Little details matter. We talked after we left and both commented on how clean things were there. Granted we didn’t see much of the house but we went through the garage and into the laundry room and it was one of the cleanest laundry rooms we had seen. Maybe it doesn’t seem like much to some, but to us it is details like this that tell us more about who we are doing business with. We have had Charlie Rose for just three days and she is an absolute joy and already running our house. The experience could not have been better. If you are looking to adopt a Dachshund, and care about the home in which they are born into, then you must consider Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. It’s not just the Dachshunds that are extraordinary, but the family as well.

We could not be happier with our little Gigi that we purchased from Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. We lost our 13 year old Dachshund Ginger to cancer and looked everywhere for another baby to love. We happened upon Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds online and loved how much they care for their babies. We immediately got in touch with them and they responded very quickly. They were so kind and friendly to us and want all of their Dachshund babies to be placed in loving homes. I would recommend Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone and everyone. You will have the best experience with them and also a wonderful new addition to your family.

Love is often loosely proclaimed; however, not so with how we feel about our beautiful little Butter Bean (formerly named Kendall). We recently adopted Butter Bean from Kevin and Tina Edwards and it was love at first sight. He is a healthy little puppy blessed with a handsome bloodline and loving nature. He was very well adjusted when we received him, which indicates the exceptional care provided by Tina and Kevin. The Edwards were very thorough in making sure that Butter Bean would be adopted into a loving environment and we are very proud to be a part of the family of Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. Dachshunds are a special breed and we are so thankful for the "extraordinary" care given to breeding the finest and in securing the best for them as they move out into the world.

When we began considering a new pet after losing our beautiful longhair female we soon came across the Edwards website. While we visited many others, we kept coming back to this one. It was evident that they cared greatly for their dogs and were striving for health and quality. The site is most informative (we still visit for information and guidance). They are up front with their policies while presenting them in such a way as to project the fact that they care for their dogs as well as prospective owners. When we finally decided, we found the process to be exactly as they had described. The questioning was thorough and yet we fully understood their reasoning and were actually reassured by the process. The whole process went smoothly right up to the day we came for our beloved Kelby (we kept their name).
We were disappointed that we did not get to meet Tina (she was busy tending to a new litter), but Kevin was very gracious and accommodating. Our little boy has proven to be a real joy.
We are grateful for the Edwards's and the assuring way Kelby came into our lives.

After 2 years of debating on getting a dog we decided the timing was right and we were ready but the next question was okay what is next. After some research we felt like this was the place for us and after talking several times and getting approval we were excited. We have had Sadie (Bumbles) for 8 days now and it has been an incredible experience. We can tell she was well taken care of and is a happy puppy. This has been such a smooth transition and I couldn't ask for a better puppy. We were given great recommendations and advice and are very thankful to have met the Edwards.

After getting the chance to meet the Edwards and to pick up my special boy Gilroy which I have renamed "Toby" I knew that I had bought my dachshund from the right breeders. Kevin and Tina were both very welcoming and I'm glad that I had the opportunity to meet these great people! You can tell that these breeders are very professional. While emailing with the Edwards you can tell just how much they truly love there animals! I can't thank them enough for allowing me to bring "Toby" into my home! Everything went so smoothly and I would recommend these breeders to anyone that is looking for a Dachshund. Thank you all again!

This adoption process has been the most amazing process. I was hesitant when trying to find a dachshund breeder. I have always heard horror stories about puppy mills and such. After about 2 emails to the Edwards, I knew these people were just like me. 100 % Animal Lovers! They want every piece of background information they can get from you because they want to make sure their babies are going to a safe and loving home. This meant so much to me because it showed how much they cared. All of the information that I had to send did not bother me. I picked up Oliver (Sully) when he turned 8 weeks old. The following Monday I took him to the vet to start the 5way shot process etc. Everyone working in the vet’s office went crazy over him. They all said that they have never seen a cream dachshund. They all took him, and took pictures with him. Everyone at my work knows him on a first name basis. I think the whole city of Morristown has fell in love with this beautiful dog. My husband is amazed how smart this dog is. You can tell that the Edwards worked closely with the dogs to make sure they are loved and well trained. Oliver is just 8 weeks old, and knows how to use the puppy pad really well. My heart melts when I hold Oliver. You can tell he received lots of love from the Edwards because when he is held, he will lay on your shoulder just like a baby. They sent him home with a baby blanket that has the Edward’s scent on it and the litter mate’s scent. The detail that the Edwards put into each adoption is amazing. Oliver is so loving. He hasn’t met a stranger yet. He loves giving people kisses on the nose then he will crawl up on their shoulder. I admire this because my 10 year old dachshund is not a social butterfly. He doesn’t really like to be around anyone except me and my husband. I can already tell that Oliver is making him more sociable. They love playing with their squeaky toys together. I have cameras throughout the house, and they are already snuggling together when I am at work. This has been the most amazing process that I ever could go through. Oliver has brought so much joy to my life.

Hi Edwards ,
We renamed Hershey "Willie" and he is an absolute delight. He has the sweetest personality and is very attached to us. He was the one you said hadn't learned to get out from under your feet and he still likes to be touching whatever human family member he is with.
He is spoiled rotten and sleeps in the bed with us or my daughter every night. He loves to go to the lake and swims and retrieves a stick like his "brother Boonie" the chocolate lab, he looks like an otter swimming through the water.
He has done pretty well with potty training, and we are finally getting him to stop barking at strangers etc. He has never been aggressive or bitten any human or other animal which is wonderful (our other dachshund was a biter).
He is very smart and will bring his dish to us when he is hungry although he is not food aggressive at all.
You all have done a great job with your breeding because he is everything we were looking for in a dachshund. He has the great characteristics of his breed such as tenacity, loyalty, intelligence etc. but he is also very sweet and loves to be held and cuddled and is happy just being with his people.
If you ever need us as a reference we would recommend you 100% . He is a great dog and well loved and spoiled !
Thanks for doing a great job with your animals.

For years, I've been wanting a long hair miniature dachshund. Just recently, I decided to search the Internet and came upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. At first, I was a little skeptical with all the scams out there, but I began to read their website, and it is very detailed. They go into detail about their purchasing requirements. I also read their customer page which shares experiences from previous customers. I felt comfortable, so I began to look at all the puppies, and I fell in love with a chocolate and cream long hair mini dachshund named Brittnee.
I contacted Kevin and Tina through email that I was interested in Brittnee. I told them a little about myself per their request on their web page. They promptly emailed me back with more questions and wanted pictures of the living accommodations. I was very impressed, and this showed me that they truly cared where their babies were going. I received an email that I could make a deposit on Brittnee, and I was overjoyed. I stayed in contact through email until the day arrived that I could pickup my beautiful baby.
Finally, the time arrived, and we drove to the Edwards' home to pickup our baby. We were greeted by Kevin. When we walked into their home, Tina came in the room with our beautiful baby wrapped in a blanket, and my heart melted. She was more beautiful in person than the pictures I had been looking at. They were very thorough as they went over the paperwork with us. They gave us instructions and advice which was very helpful. They gave us a gift bag with a small bag of food and some toys. I thought it was very thoughtful that the blanket Brittnee was wrapped in had the litter mates' scent on it. This was another gesture that showed me how much Kevin and Tina truly love their babies.
Brittnee (now named Molly) has adjusted great in just a few days. She is so loving and sweet. She melts my heart with her kisses. She is doing excellent with potty training on the pee pads since the Edwards had already started this in their home. She has already brought us such joy in just a few days. We are head over heels in love!!
Kevin and Tina chose a very fitting name Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds because their babies are extraordinary in my opinion. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a miniature dachshund to look no more because you have found the perfect place! I look forward to keeping in contact with them.
Thank you Kevin and Tina, for all the love you give your extraordinary babies.

We just want to thank you again for all you did to have Trixie ready for us. It's obvious that you care so much about these little dogs' well being. Your process is an interesting one that was new to us. We've never before been interviewed and had requests for pictures of where the puppy would live etc. It is a wonderful idea and we encourage any puppy client you have to be patient and let you "do your thing" for the benefit of the dog. Also, you were so thorough with your instructions, paperwork, etc. plus beginning puppy potty training was a huge help. Trixie is very friendly and well socialized and seems to be at ease in her new home. We credit you with that.

We were very fortunate to be able to add another new baby boy to our household last weekend. We had previously purchased a very loving and beautiful 7-month old long hair girl, Mia, from Kevin and Tina 18 months ago. So when we suddenly lost our beloved 10-year-old corgi to cancer last month, we decided the best thing to do was to find another wonderful puppy to assist us in the healing process and to give Mia a playmate, so of course we thought of Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds!
We drove from our home in Alpharetta, Georgia to East Tennessee last weekend to the Edwards’ beautiful, scenic hometown to adopt our precious long hair white and chocolate 3-month old boy. He has been such a blessing and delight and has adjusted very well in only a week’s time! We are so in love with him. He has a special spot on our bed which he settles into each night and does not wake until our alarm goes off. He is extremely smart and has not had a potty accident in the house, as the Edwards’ start to potty train at a very early age with pee pads. This makes housebreaking much easier!
Kevin and Tina took their time with us to explain the purchasing contract, shot records, and basic new puppy care, so we felt very confident with taking home a 3 month old. Our second experience with the Edwards was just as fabulous as the first. They are truly very caring breeders. Their puppies are very well bred, socialized extremely well, and of the highest AKC quality. If you are looking for a wonderful mini-dachshund, Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds is the only breeder you should consider.

Thank you both for being so easy to work with and being so responsive. I appreciate the questions you asked at the beginning to determine if our home would be a good fit. That means that you only want a good future for all of your puppies. I communicated with several breeders in TN and in Missouri and just didn't feel they were the right fit for me.
The moment I read your questions and email correspondence, I knew it would be a great fit. You provided helpful information on training and the ride home and it was perfect!! We couldn't ask for a better experience and we are beyond excited to have Bart as apart of our family now. I'm 100% sure that WHEN we are ready for #2, I will be reaching out to you guys and wouldn't think of going elsewhere.

Kevin and Tina are great breeders who love their dogs. They show nothing but concern for the puppies they raise. They may ask for a lot of information, but it is because they genuinely care where their baby will be going. We are so happy with our new pup! Thanks Kevin and Tina!

I first would like to thank Kevin and Tina for working with me to get the little man of my dreams. I highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds for MANY reasons. One being the obvious dedication and compassion Kevin and Tina have for their babies and adult dogs. They truly make sure that their babies are going to be in loving homes in asking you any question that comes to their mind even after your preliminary application email but it all benefits you and your new best friend - I highly respected and loved this process while deeming the application process extremely important and professional knowing that before l got my baby boy, he was healthy, happy and taken care of. They won't let their babies go to anyone that won't give them even more love. Another reason is how easy Kevin and Tina are to work with. They have a quick response time between emails. This was my first doxie and I felt l could ask any question regarding not only my puppy but the dachshund breed as a whole. Above all, the main reason is the quality of their puppies. My baby boy is extremely handsome, silly, extremely observant, smart, and SO loving and affectionate. You can really tell they put time and love into their puppies for their motto is "quality not quantity" and the second you receive your puppy you can see the love in him. Thank you guys so much for Blingo. He already is our world and we love him so much.

Let me thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for being real life loving people who care about all the dogs they raise and place into forever homes! If not for them and my darling new puppy my heart would not know the unconditional love I now have from my little bundle of joy!
I'd like to tell our story of "Finding Miss Bris".
I had been searching the web to find the special little face, you know, the one you first see and it takes your breath away. Well, I found that beautiful little face on Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds web site. The Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website was very easy to navigate. When I opened their available long haired puppies page, I selected Haley’s Long Hair Puppies, low and behold there she was! Harley, a gorgeous little black & white piebald female, born January 5th to Haley and Boogie.
I sent my first email to contact the breeder with some skepticism surely and not entirely certain about trying to do something of this magnitude long distance.... not to mention everything we hear about all kinds of online scams these days. Kevin and Tina very promptly responded to my inquiry with reassurances to my concerns and various information in answer to my questions. One large concern was of course shipping across the U.S. from TN. to CA. They relayed to us that they had been shipping their babies for years, making certain that the pups are in a climate controlled environment. They were truly professional throughout the process, every step of the way. They ask for quite a bit of information and verification from the potential buyers regarding their lifestyles, the family home, environment & hours available to give to a new puppy, whether or not there are any siblings, etc. These questions are asked for good reason, they want to feel secure in the knowledge that they have gone above and beyond in order to better protect the well being of their babies. They want their new families to be responsible owners who will love and care for their baby as they would themselves. Once approved, we sent in the required deposit using PayPal. As we had never used PayPal before, I was pleasantly pleased to find it was very simple indeed. We were quite concerned about the shipping, and Kevin and Tina proposed the Delta “Dash” service which would expedite the travel, which we gladly paid the premium for because we didn’t want our new baby in transit any longer than absolutely necessary! She needed a little more time to be ready to fly, and they anticipated that she would be mentally and physically ready to fly. The morning of her scheduled flight as they were nearly to the airport they were notified that there would be a significant delay, and our baby would most likely miss her connecting flight -putting her in transit for way to many hours. They promptly turned around and took her back home! We of course, were immediately notified, although disappointed that we had a minor delay, but we did not want her in transit for that long either!! When our re-scheduled flight day arrived, we received the notification that everything was a GO! We were sent her arrangements, kennel tracking information and were provided with flight updates from Kevin and Tina faster than we were able to get them ourselves online. She arrived safe and sound, happily wagging her wee tail – glad to be released at last as we took her out of the kennel ….she is absolutely perfect!!! We can’t tell you with adequate words just how much we love our little Miss Bris! Thank you, Kevin and Tina Edwards, from the bottom of our hearts! We check in periodically to provide little updates on things like her vet visits, how she’s adjusting and just to let them know how much she is loved. They are always pleased to be sent pictures and little notes – we promise to always keep in touch. They are after all, related as her family!
Our experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds has been a pleasure, Kevin and Tina Edwards are really wonderful loving people, devoted to the very best in AKC Miniature Dachshunds!

First and foremost, I would like to thank Kevin and Tina for all of their help and support through the process. I had been searching for the perfect puppy for quite some time and things had fallen through with other breeders and it just wasn’t meant to be. I came across Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds one day while looking at puppies and I immediately fell in love with what would soon be my new love, Mandara (later renamed Ziggy.) Kevin and Tina were very careful and thorough with their screening, which showed me they truly love and care for each of their puppy’s future. They made sure to educate and remind me of the puppy care process and necessities as it has been a while since I’ve had a puppy.
Since we reside in Texas, we were having our Ziggy shipped to us. Which, to anyone would be very nerve-wrecking and worrisome. However, Kevin and Tina made me feel so very comforting knowing that they weren’t trying to get rid of her as soon as she was old enough to go. They took the time to wait for her to physically be able to handle the flight and took all precautions to guarantee her safety. That shows how much they truly love each of their babies. When we received our Ziggy, she was just as lively and loving as expected! She socialized smoothly with our other dog babies and they instantly became the best of friends. You can tell Kevin and Tina take pride in what they do, as they should. They have given us a FUREVER love and we couldn’t be more grateful. We look forward to a long and wonderful relationship with the Edwards.
Thank you so much, Kevin and Tina!

I had found the woman of my dreams and decided I wanted to make her mine forever. I had planned out the whole proposal and received her parents blessing but the only thing I was missing was the perfect puppy. I searched forever looking for a breeder that could give me what I wanted. After many days of looking and a few scams, I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Just by reading their page I knew this was a breeder with experience. I searched through all their beautiful pups that were available and found a beautiful chocolate and cream little girl and I knew she was the one. I contacted Kevin and Tina in hopes she was still available. I was amazed how quickly I received a reply. I answered all their questions they had for me and was able to put a deposit down. From there they worked with my schedule and set a pickup date. The morning of the proposal date my girlfriend's mother and I started our two and a half hour road trip down to East Tennessee. It was not hard to find thanks to the directions they provided. When we arrived Kevin welcomed us with open arms and invited us to come view the puppy. She was the most adorable thing I had ever seen. As I got to hold her Kevin went over valuable information that showed his love and knowledge for these pups. We were sent on our way with safe travels and all the essentials needed to get started with our new baby girl. Later that day I gave the love of my life the ring and the puppy. As her heart melted she said yes and agreed to start a family just the two of us and the beautiful little dachshund! We named the puppy Reese because of her gorgeous coat. She is full of personality and loves cuddles. Reese is the sweetest and most loving puppy and I truly believe this is because the way she was raised before we got her. I can not compliment Kevin and Tina enough. Their puppies are truly extraordinary in every way. They are not just breeders with puppies to sale they are a family with puppies included.
Thank you for being such a blessing and helping make this possible. You guys are great!

We began our search for a mini Dachshund after a traumatic injury was suffered. All the extra time at home opened the space in our hearts to welcome a fur baby. We searched many breeders trying to find the right one. When we came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund we found what we had searched for.
Originally, we had our eye set on a puppy that Kevin and Tina had already promised someone else. We maintained positive and about a week later they listed an adorable puppy. We acted as quick as we could to prevent missing another puppy. Kevin and Tina accepted my inquiry and began their consideration. Reflecting on it now I’m grateful for their thoroughness. I would be heartbroken to imagine my sweet boy in the care of a negligent person. After some time had passed we were approved and our excitement skyrocketed. We then began preparation for our puppy. Kevin and Tina were there to offer advice the whole time. We did have a 400 mile trip to get to him but it was well worth it. Give the breeders time to get your puppy ready and you won’t regret it. They brought our puppy to us smelling great and well groomed. It was evident he had been well cared for by them. They are fantastic and if looking for another mini Dachshund I would go back to no one but them.
Our puppy did begin to cry after we first got him into the car. It was expected as his world completely changed. He did not have any accidents on the trip home. However, upon entering the home he immediately began to poop and pee. We keep potty mats out for him but he doesn’t always make it to them. He also has a nibbling problem. Anything he can get his mouth onto he will. Truth be told if you are not prepared for these puppy tendencies get a cat or fish.
Most puppies will be a great deal of work and require much attention. This is all outweighed during the moments they are relaxing and being well behaved.
If you are sure a Miniature dachshund is what you need in your life look no farther than Kevin and Tina.
Thank you.

We have purchased four loving puppies from Kevin and Tina and have had excellent services from them. Their puppies are of the best quality according to our vet. Kevin and Tina are always there for us if we have any questions about our puppies. The puppies are well socialized and have not had any behavior issues or any physical problems. I highly recommend doing business with them because they do have Extraordinary Dachshunds! We love them!
Thanks Kevin and Tina for these loving dogs!

First of all we would like to thank you for our new baby Tucker. He has been a joy to us since we took him home. He bonded immediately with our first baby Nugs. He has adjusted well to his new house without problems. He is just a playful very energetic little boy. He had his first visit at the Vet and they absolutely loved him. They even took a picture of him to post in their face book page as their newest patient. Kevin and Tina we can't express how happy you have made our family for having 2 beautiful puppies (Nugs and Tucker) from you guys. When my daughter brought Nugs home to us 2 years ago, my husband and I fell in love with him. He has given us so much love and laughter in our lives. But of course he's the love of my daughters life. So we decided to have another puppy and I could not think of any other kind but a miniature dachshund from the Edwards. When we saw "Mannix" at your website we knew he was the one. We named him "Tucker". He is now our new baby boy. A great addition to our family. My husband and I are proud to have such beautiful puppies from the Edwards. To anyone out there who's looking for a puppy to become part of your family, we would highly recommend a miniature dachshund. Not just any miniature dachshund but the "Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund". Speaking from experience, we know that you will have a healthy, loving, very special, and precious puppy. Kevin and Tina are very experienced professional, thorough, and loving couple. They hand raise each and every puppy within their own home. We like that they update their website from the time you put your deposit until the time our puppies goes to their "forever home". We loved that they make sure for a smooth transition of the new puppy from their home to their forever home. They answered all our questions during pick up. They provided us a clear and concise guide on how to get to their house. They gave us a to go bag with new toys, a pee pad, and a blanket. They also provided us an up to date copy of their vaccines and some other useful information regarding our new puppy. We love that they encouraged us to call them if we have further questions. Proven by so many families including ours, "Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund" is well recommended with 5 stars. We love our boys so much and we are blessed to have them as part of our family.
Thank you Kevin and Tina. You're awesome.

For about a year, my wife and I searched for the most trustworthy and caring dachshund breeder. Our main concern, when searching for our dachshund, was knowing that the breeder truly cared about the future of the pet and the impact the future family would have on the life of the puppy. After reading many reviews and researching Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, we quickly realized this was the place we wanted our little guy to come from.
The adoption process was thorough, but not overwhelming. We highly respect the love and attention the Edward's place on their dogs. They seem to do everything in their power to ensure a loving home.
We have a healthy and happy 3-month old dachshund boy now. We know much of his happiness comes from the early love and attention provided by Kevin and Tina. Thank you for providing us with our wonderful new family member that is loved dearly.
The Fink family - Kingsport, TN

We have now been lucky enough to adopt 2 beautiful pups from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our first puppy Penny was a Christmas surprise from my husband and she is a delight in every way! Her beautiful hazel eyes are the first thing everyone comments on. But her shiny red coat, spirited personality and intelligence are even more impressive! When it was time to add another pup to the pack, we knew exactly where to go. It was so much fun checking the website and seeing what was available. The greatest part of adopting another dog was not having to research tons of breeders to find what we wanted. We were so happy with The Edwards that we looked nowhere else! Our second pup Sadie is just as beautiful, happy and smart as her half-sister. Kevin and Tina do an amazing job at breeding absolutely wonderful dogs. We could not be any happier with our new family members! Thank you so much for blessing us with 2 of your pups.
Thanks again for the love.

We had a dachshund for 12 years before she died and knew we wanted another one, after searching many sites we found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our experience with Kevin and Tina Edwards was wonderful. They are very through in their screening which was very comforting to know that they care so much about their babies. We had forgotten a lot about puppy care and they were very informative about what to do and expect from our new addition. Tana has adjusted fast and without any problems with separation anxiety to her new environment. She is a loving, playful and healthy bundle of joy. I would highly recommend obtaining a puppy from them. Thank you Kevin and Tina for making our lives more enjoyable by allowing us to be lucky enough to have one of your precious babies.

First of all I would like to thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for giving us the wonderful opportunity to adopt one of their precious puppies. The fact that they personally select the forever homes for their puppies really meant a lot to me. It showed me that they actually CARE about their babies and want to make sure they end up in good homes. Their website was really helpful and easy to navigate! They are very knowledgeable about the breed and provide a bunch of tips for both new and experienced dog owners.
Since we live in Miami, the thought of having a puppy flown out to us was somewhat stressful. Trust was definitely another factor to consider when buying a puppy online. The Edwards guided us through the entire process and answered all of our questions via email. When we finally received our baby (now named Odie) they sent us a follow-up email to make sure he had arrived safely. We couldn't be happier with our new puppy and plan to keep in touch with them as much as we can!
I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and well-loved dog!
Their dachshunds are truly extraordinary!

Kevin and Tina were an absolute delight to work with, and made the process of bringing our new family member home a total delight. They care about their puppies and it shows. Our new companion easily socialized with our current dogs and was a snuggle bug the moment we picked her up! If you are looking for a professional, quality, and caring breeder, look no further!

I highly recommend Edwards' Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone is who looking for a healthy, beautiful, well-cared for dog. Our miniature dachshund puppy, Eddy, has brought such joy into our home. He is sweet and loving and an all-around bundle of fun. Eddy was an early Christmas gift for my girls and they are enjoying every minute with him! He is also making a wonderful playmate for our 3 year old terrier mix.
I was so impressed by the quality of care the Edwards's put into preparing Eddy to be healthy and well-adjusted and their conscientiousness about placing him in the right home. Be prepared to answer a lot of questions (this is all for your benefit!) and to have excellent information provided to you about what to expect and how to best care for your new family member.
This is our first dachshund and he has stolen our hearts! At some point in the future, we may decide we have room for another; when we do, there is no doubt about who we will call.
Many thanks to Kevin and Tina!

We fell in love with "Elise" when we saw her on the website. When I reached out to Kevin and Tina to inquire about her they wanted more information about our family and living conditions as well as how much experience we had taking care of a puppy. I love that they pre-screen potential new homes for their babies to make sure they are taken care of. "Elise" could not be a sweeter puppy. She is not only beautiful, but also very sweet and is training very easily. The next time we are ready to expand our family we will for sure be coming back to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!
Thank you again.

I decided to begin my search for a puppy a few months back and settled on the Dachshund breed because of their playful and loyal personalities. After doing a lot of research on various breeders, I settled on Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds because of the care and commitment they provide to their litters. I'm extremely happy I did! Aside from coming from a loving homes, it's important to chose a breeder that begins working with the puppies from day one. It was a very easy transition. Luna immediately knew to go potty on the pee pee pad and rarely barks. I attribute this to Kevin and Tina working with her since birth. I'm very appreciative of them and their commitment to placing "Extraordinary" dachshunds into loving forever homes.

We are so thankful to have found you at the time we did! Winnie (formerly Colin) is doing great and he is a beautiful boy. We get comments on him from everyone everywhere we go and he is a people person who loves to socialize. The shipping process worked out perfectly and although we would've liked to pick him up, he did great coming to us and was comfortable in his new home very quickly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with a breeder and we love our little guy!
Thanks for everything!

Thank you sooo much for being such awesome people!! I could tell in my emails with you that you really love your doxies and care about the homes and people you place them with. That meant a lot to me as I cherish my doxies and want to know that they started out in a loving and caring home. When I showed up ahead of schedule and called you wanting to pick up my puppy you went out of your way to try to accommodate me and make the process easy. The information and care you gave to me and my new puppy were outstanding – from the precious blanket with his litter mates’ scents on it to the puppy toys and nutrition information – you covered everything to make the transition smooth and painless. Nash has fit into our home so well and is so smart!! He already comes to his name and is full of joy and enthusiasm! He is a joy to have around. I also want to thank you for your commitment to raising quality, healthy dogs and insuring that they will be loved and well taken care of in their new homes.
Thanks again and God Bless you and Your Doxies!!

Our family would like to send thanks to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds after we got our little ball of fun, Burt, for Christmas. We snuck Burt into our home and surprised my step-mom for Christmas. The entire family was crying tears of joy after receiving this little puppy that has brought so much light into our lives. He is the funniest little guy and gets along greatly with our other dog who is a golden retriever (he also thinks he is her size)! So many people have asked where we got him, as he was raised in a beautiful home surrounded by people who truly cared about his well-being. He is hilarious, feisty, adventurous, determined, and above all- loving. We could not be more thankful that Burt was given the love, affection and attention that he needed when he was a young puppy by Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
Thank you all so, so much.

Our family thanks you from the bottom of our heart ! Little RINGO RHINEHEART (formerly twix) is the most beautiful , joyful, healthy, feisty, and loving little creature in the universe! I have had 5 rescue dogs and two rescue cats ,but known for years and years that I wanted to return to my childhood roots and once again have dachshunds in my life. My childhood family had four little doxies , but the last was 17 years ago. So thus , began the search.
Where do I find a reputable breeder? Where do I start? Can I trust the Internet?
Well the search was on and I quickly zeroed in on EDWARDS EXTRAORDINARY DACHSHUNDS !
After reading every word on your website Repeatedly and when I saw little Ringo's (Twix) picture, I knew I had found the best breeder and my future little pup !!! I so appreciated the extent and detail of your interview with potential adoptive parents , it confirmed to me that this was not just a business , it's a labor of love and that you truly care for every pup that you chaperone into the world , not only the pups , but their parents health and well being as well . I was greatly comforted knowing all of your dachshunds had free roam of your home and yard and that the pups were raised in a bedroom . I did my research and then you did yours! I can tell you that when you confirmed to me that my family was accepted to adopt little RINGO (twix)
I jumped up and down , cried , and let out a "yahoo" heard round the the world !!! My heart is so full !!! ❤️
I also haven't seen my husband Lou, giggle as he did when I brought little RINGO home! I put the little fella in his arms and Ringo immediately wagged his little tail, snuggled his neck and chewed on his chin !!
Thank you so much , Kevin and Tina !❤️

I have been so happy & pleased with my experience with Edwards' Extraordinary Dachshunds! My family bought 2 dachshunds, as a gift, for me, for all my presents this coming year. The Edwards couldn't have been more gracious & helpful in coordinating our experience, in adopting our new babies. I wanted a boy & a girl & they are just precious & beautiful! They held onto our little girl, a few weeks longer, so we could pick up our little puppies together. They even specially wrapped them in blankets with their litter scent on them for the long trip home. I couldn't be more pleased & the pups are healthy & happy now in their new home! I am in love with the new babies! Thanks so much for a wonderful experience in adoption. I was "vetted" thoroughly & questioned about my ability to care for these sweet babies, but that assured me that these people at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds care about their babies so much!
Thank you again for everything!

Words cannot express what a joy it was to add Elvis (Calep) to our family this past week. First, and above all, I want to thank you for your thorough application procedure and your communication. Your attention to detail about Elvis’ early days and care so clearly showed how much love he was brought into the world with and how much you truly care and love what you do. Elvis is absolutely beautiful, kind - natured, sooooooooo sweet — he managed the very long car ride with barely a sound. He used his pads immediately. We are absolutely in love with him. I couldn’t be more grateful for starting our relationship with a new puppy in this way. We are learning and he will be a part of our family forever. We will keep in touch!!!
Thank you!!

First and foremost we are so happy to have another puppy from you. We provided Sunny a forever home about 1.5 yrs. ago and she has been such a blessing ever since. She has a personality of no other. Our son has written many projects for
school on her temperament. She is very precious to us. Approximately 6 months ago our oldest
dog passed away after battling diabetes and cushions disease. After mourning her loss we thought of no other breeder than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our first experience was so pleasant we did not hesitate to contact you again. The information you ask for first time buyers and the questions you have about our home life, other pets, size of fenced yard, etc. demonstrated for us that you are not just any breeder you are a loving and compassionate family that want to place puppies in caring forever loving homes.
When we contacted you to see if our Sunny's mother was going into heat you offered as much information as you could and informed us you also had her grandmother. You kept in contact and did not become angry or inpatient with our many emails
and calls for follow up information. When we chose Cole now Willis once again you went above and beyond to keep on contact with us.
Both Sunny and Willis have soft gentle personalities. They are very playful and being matt (pee pad) trained when we got them was an extra bonus.
Please share our information with anyone who would like references as we will only buy from you as long as you are in this business.
Thank you again.

I was searching the internet for a highly certified dachshund breeder, and came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. I immediately fell in love and wanted to purchase all the puppies on their website. My first dachshund passed away a little over a year ago and I wasn't certain I was ready for another puppy. After six months of looking at there website everyday, I decided it was time. I recently purchased a short hair red dachshund, now named Louie, from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
The experience working with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds was amazing from start to finish.
The communication was prompt and very thorough. I knew right away the first time I emailed Kevin and Tina to put a deposit on Louie, the requirements and questions they asked, proved to me they genuinely care for their litters and the future of their well being. Louie has been with me now for one week and it's been the best week of my life. He has a sweet personality and totally wants to love on you. I am extremely satisfied with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and will highly recommend them to anyone. I know with the quality of the litter and the experience that I had, my next puppy will be from Tina and Kevin Edwards. I look forward to the many years to share with Louie and
I'm so grateful for Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.

I would like to start by saying that if you're looking for a quality breeder, you have found one at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We have purchased from them twice. We got our first baby, Max (Redman) from them last year. And then our second baby, Bella (Brita), we got this year. Max is now 15 months old and Bella is 4 months old. They are both doing great and are very healthy and full of life. I'm so glad I found their website. I was hesitant at first to purchase online, but after talking with the Edwards' I could tell how much they really care for their pups. They are very concerned about where these little guys go to their new forever home. They always answer any questions and concerns and always return calls and emails. So thanks to the Edwards' we have two very healthy Dachshunds that bring us so much joy to our lives.
Thanks again Kevin and Tina.

Last year our beloved Murphy, a long-haired black and tan dachshund passed away. Murphy had been with me for more than 13 years and was very much a part of my family. He was my dog, but my children and husband adored him. Murphy's loss left a huge void. We would talk about how much we missed Murphy and I knew I wanted/needed another dog in my life. But not just any dog would do. I wanted another long-haired dachshund, preferably a miniature.
I started my search about two months ago. The internet sites I looked at were mainly pretty generic and I didn't find any that felt right. Then I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website and knew I found the place I wanted to get my next pet from. I read their purchase requirements, checked out the pictures and the litters, and kept coming back to a beautiful male long-haired pup, Alex. I looked some more at other sites but kept coming back to look at him. I was falling in love.
I contacted Kevin and Tina about purchasing Alex (we call him Odat). They were so gracious and yet very careful. They truly care with whom the pups and dogs are placed. I was happy to share what they wanted to know about how Odat's day would be spent, who he would be with, what his living environment would be like, and other important things like who would provide veterinary care. The things that are important to me for him are also important to them. This is a true testament that Kevin and Tina are not just breeding for profits; they are breeding for their love of the animals.
Kevin and Tina didn't know me and were cautious. Considering the number of dogs that have to be rescued each year, you can't help but admire their inquiries. They approved me and we ! proceeded with the steps to adopt Odat. I picked him up a few days later. Kevin and Tina emailed me to make sure Odat was okay on the three hour drive home. They also have followed up to make sure he's adjusting well to our home . This isn't because they believe we lack in caring for him - its because they love him.
Odat has had a wonderful start in life under the care of Kevin and Tina. And I know he'll be bring joy, laughter and love to our family. In fact, he already is.

Our family has been loving owners of a beautiful black and white piebald (Bruza) and a blue piebald (Coco). We have always wanted to add a chocolate piebald to our family. We had recently lost our Bruza and we were just devastated by his sudden loss. Looking online and searching for a chocolate pie led us to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. As soon as I saw Laker's (we call him Luigi) sweet little face and gentle eyes we knew we wanted him to be a part of our family. I contacted Kevin and Tina and as with all of my inquiries, a response was quick to follow! They kept us updated with his progress throughout the process. Any questions we had were quickly answered. The day he was shipped to us the weather was bad and his flight was delayed and they kept in touch with us the entire day until we confirmed Luigi was in our possession!
From the moment he arrived from the airport he was sweet, cuddly and very well adjusted. His tail never stopped wagging! He was never nervous or scared. He fit right in and adjusted to his new surroundings almost immediately! Potty training was extremely quick and easy! He is very smart and has been easy to train. He is incredibly friendly and EVERYONE loves him! And he loves everyone! What a beautiful temperament.
Having never met Kevin and Tina and only corresponding through emails, I have to say it was a wonderful, easy experience. They are very professional, caring breeders.
Thank you so much for allowing us to give Luigi a forever home! He has been a true joy!

I had heard great things about Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds and had seen one of their sweet, well-tempered dogs in person before I had even decided to adopt a puppy. So, when I decided to find my own little one, this is the first place I looked. The transaction was smooth, and it was comforting to see how much they wanted to see one of their own go to a good home. I welcomed any and all questions about my home life and the time I was going to be able to commit to a puppy.
Knox, previously Jordan, has brought me so much joy and lighthearted fun. I am a full time student, and it is so exciting to see my sweet boy happy and ready to play after a long day of class. He is the perfect study buddy and loves to snuggle right next to me. Knox is so playful and loves his big brother, Sushi (another wonderful example from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds). He is growing so much every day! At only 12 weeks old, he is starting to recognize his name and beginnings of a few commands!
I am so thankful for the Edward's family and their love of raising quality, sweet-tempered dachshunds. They were sweet for choosing me to be Knox's loving parent. I don't know what I would do without him now.

We had been searching for reputable breeders for some time before we finally found Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. There is no doubt in our minds that we found the best Dachshund breeders out there in Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. They definitely live up to their word about breeding for quality.
When we saw our puppy we were sold. It takes more than just being willing to buy one of these Dachshunds. They actually care where their babies go. They, like us treat their pets like family. Before deciding on a forever family for their puppies they took the time to find out who we were. What our routine was, how many members are in our family, and basically any questions to ensure you are a responsible and loving pet owner. We were more than happy to provide any information to assist in the selection process. It was a give and take process. We wanted the best breeders and they wanted the best family for their baby. We both got what we wanted.
We are beyond privileged to have been chosen as Balina's (now named Piper Bean Sitorius) forever family.
She has exceeded every expectation we had. Her temperament is amazingly calm, loving, extremely affectionate, and playful. She is only 10 weeks old and already well socialized and well on her way to being potty trained thanks to their dedication. She is absolutely beautiful inside and out. We are beyond blessed to have her as part of our family.
If you are looking for a Dachshund, look no further.
Sincerely,

We picked up Pickles (Joslin) on a Friday evening just after she turned 8 weeks old and she has been a joy from the start. We were very skeptical about conducting this type of business over the Internet, but the transaction went as smoothly as could be expected. The Edwards’ have been a pleasure to work with. All emails have been answered quickly and we couldn’t have had a better experience. I appreciate the fact that the Edwards’ are knowledgeable about the dachshund breed and was able to give us much appreciated information on the day we picked her up. It was a surprise to find the number of gifts inside the bag we were given with her on pick up day. The blanket and packet of food was a huge help. Since it had been 20 years since we had a pet in our home and had never purchased a pure bred from a breeder, it was a wonderful surprise to find out that Kevin and Tina wanted to know something about the forever home one of their puppies would be going to. This told me that it wasn’t simply about the money….they truly love these little puppies and want to know they are going to be with a family that will love and care for them. It has only taken a couple of days for Pickles to show that she is feeling very comfortable in our home. She plays, jumps, runs and rolls around a good part of the day and is doing very well in house training. She has the sweetest disposition and has taken up with every member of my family. I look forward to many years of the unconditional love you can only get from a fur baby. I would certainly recommend Kevin and Tina for anyone who is looking for a beautiful dachshund.

"I was looking for a pure bred mini dachshund from a reliable, responsible and personable breeder, and found that in Kevin and Tina Edwards. Kevin and Tina have achieved excellence in breeding these beautiful dogs and were very professional from day one. Their website is comprehensive in the process of purchase and standards that they live up to and expect in a forever home which made things very efficient in the puppy search. They worked with me in my excessively busy schedule to meet for picking up my new pup and offered a very professional transaction and gave a gift bag out of courtesy for caring for my new pup in the first days. They not only gave me a pup in perfect health and looks but gave me very good advice and written directions on getting through the first and toughest weeks with my new pup. I will certainly pursue their service for any future mini's I may add to my home.

I would like to thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for breeding the most beautiful and mellow dachshund. I have worked with a few breeders and none were as through and thoughtful as they are. They care deeply for their pups, I was basically interviewed before I could purchase our little girl Rowynn (previously Sandielu). They requested not only information but pictures of our home inside and out and our yard. That is awesome !!!. They sent pictures and emailed with up to date times of arrival when she was flown in. Rowynn came in a nice crate with blankets with her litter mates scent and a nice clean one taped to the top and a sample package of food. My only regret is not getting to meet Kevin and Tina in person (Tenn is on my bucket list). We have the best tempered most beautiful mini doxie in the world.
Thank you so much, the joy you have brought to our home is irreplaceable.

I have been so grateful for my new puppy. Marlo has been such a joy to have already. As a new puppy owner, it has been great to get all the advice and help from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds that I could. Before I decided on them, I looked around at others, and felt so comfortable with their selective process that I new it would be the perfect fit! I would recommend them to anyone who is interested in a dachshund! Thanks for my fur baby!!

"The Edwards have been a joy to do business with. My wife and I got our first pup from them back in 2013 and he has grown into the most handsome and loving dog. Parker is a chocolate & cream long hair that is super laid back and very healthy. He gets compliments everywhere we go. We recently got another pup from them to keep Parker company while we are away at work. So far things have been going great. The new pup is also beautiful and we are looking forward to seeing him grow.
We decided to head out to get our new pup and meet the Edwards at their property in East Tennessee. I do believe they will meet you if requested but we just couldn’t wait. The drive from Nashville is beautiful and it’s amazing how fast the trip goes with the excitement of getting your new dog. Once there, they will invite you inside where you will be greeted by your new pup. You go over some paper work and everything you need to know about getting your new dog properly inoculated. Then your on your way, the whole process is quick and simple. "

My wife and I were very fortunate to stumble upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. The process of adoption has demonstrated the time and care that is put into each and every puppy. We really appreciated all the information we received concerning the past and future health of our new family member. They are very knowledgeable of their breed and are very professional. We also appreciated their interest in who and where the puppy is going to and what kind of environment they will be living in. They provided us with a goodie bag with toys and helpful items as well as a food sample. Overall we are extremely satisfied and highly recommend Edwards.

We had thought about finding a miniature long haired dachshund for about a year as a companion to our small corgi after the loss last year of our other 12 year old corgi from cancer. We started the search last month and were immediately drawn to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds’ website. They have such an wonderful selection of all colors and patterns and are very caring breeders. All of their puppies are socialized early, raised in their home and never caged. We saw a picture of “Christa” from one of their recent litters and it was love at first sight! Her markings were truly beautiful – chocolate with a pattern consisting of piebald and brindle. We quickly called Kevin and put a deposit down as she was the only one left in the litter for purchase. The next weekend, we drove from Atlanta to Kevin and Tina’s beautiful small farm in Eastern Tennessee. When we arrived, Kevin was holding our puppy and she was even more beautiful and sweet in person than her picture indicated! The purchasing process went very smoothly. Kevin and Tina are very professional and have been breeding quality AKC dachshunds since 2006. Our puppy has adapted very quickly to our home and is a loving member of our family. We highly recommend purchasing a puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
They truly are extraordinary!

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for everything you did to prepare Belle for her forever home! I also wanted to thank you for being so patient with me and answering all of my questions. I know I had a bunch! Belle is an amazing puppy! It is obvious to me that you guys spent lots of time with her! She is very, very friendly and loves cuddling!!! She is also very good with my two kids and my dachshund I already had at home. She was also very familiar with using a potty pad! We have had very few accidents since bringing her home. That's amazing! We took Belle to the vet 2 days after we got her and she was given a clean bill of health! I know I made the right choice when choosing to get a puppy from Edwards extraordinary dachshunds! I would drive 12 hours all over again because Belle was definitely worth it!
Thanks again,

We just want to take a few moments to thank Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds for our wonderful puppy Bo.
From the first call to Kevin and Tina we knew we were dealing with a responsible, caring breeder. He explained their breeding practices, care of their puppies, how we were to care for our new puppy, shipping arrangements and any other questions we had. Thorough doesn't describe how detailed Kevin was throughout the entire process.
Emory was shipped to us from Tennessee to New York with all his up to date vaccines, a little puppy "care package" and all his paperwork. We had a very difficult travel day as we had bad storms and Emory's flight was delayed for many hours. Kevin was by his email the entire night (until 3 a.m.) to ensure Emory arrived safely. We knew that Emory came from a very loving home.
We have had "Bo" here with us for 4 days and he is a dream. He has such a wonderful temperament and was wee wee pad trained when he arrived! He loves to snuggle, sleep in his new dog bed and play with leaves. He's a happy, playful pup!
Bo had his first veterinary appointment today and as we figured is in great health. He was up to date with all his shots and deworming. The veterinarian said he's a very healthy puppy!
We cannot thank Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds and Kevin and Tina enough. Bo is a wonderful addition to our family, our children love him to pieces as do we!
Sincerely,

When we received our doxin from Kevin and Tina we were very pleased. We researched many breeders before finding ones that we were comfortable with. Maddie is very well adjusted and took to us immediately, with no signs of separation anxiety. Maddie has a great demeanor and is very easy going. She is not a nervous or frightened dog, even initially, as is sometimes the case with small breeds. We are amazed at how well she does with other people, cats, and dogs. She was obviously well socialized as a pup. She has a great personality and is quite intelligent. Also, she truly is very beautiful!! She is a joy to have in our lives. Thanks to Kevin and Tina

Wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for my entire experience with your family and my pup Penley. Pen just turned 1 and he brings our family joy every day. Our experience was a leap of faith ,we fell in love online and Pen arrived by plane. Kevin is the most patient and professional man! He answered all my questions and multiple e-mails. Kevin also kept in contact with me by text the whole time Pen was in the air and he arrived right on time. I have 2 other doxies whom I love very much but the difference in the quality of breeding is evident. I would say to anyone who comes to your website and falls in love with a pup from far away do not hesitate what you see on the web is exactly what you get and you will never have a moment of regret. Thank you Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds you sure do live up to your name ,your pups are extraordinary in every way !
This dog is not only beautiful but smart personal and conformationally correct the result of very careful and responsible breeding. Most importantly it was very clear that this pup was loved! He was never timid even after a scary plane ride and potty training was a breeze. Thank you soo much Edwards family for this priceless addition to my family.

I was looking very hard to find a rescue doxie that would work well with my two dogs last year when I found out from a coworker that her son had bought a beautiful doxie which they renamed Maybelle, from the Edwards family. I looked on their website trying to find a piebald/dapple long haired female and emailed them to let them know that was what I was interested in and that when one became available to please let me know. Within a couple of days Kevin emailed me back to tell me that a deal had fell through and that one was available. Interestingly enough while looking at her picture I fell in love with a different puppy, my beloved Ella which I named Ella Belle. I asked if they could fly Ella into Tampa and of course she came to us a few weeks later all packed with goodies and comfortable in her kennel. My family was happy and complete!! Well almost! Until this year when I got the urge to get another doxie pup. Of course, this time I found him as soon as I saw him. His name was Pelton, which we renamed Charming, to go along with the Disney theme of Princesses and Princes. This time my daughter and husband made the trip up to Tennessee and brought Charming back to his forever home! Now, our wiener family is complete!
Everything from start to finish with the Edwards was top notch. There were absolutely no problems with communication, honesty, and the quality of the puppies. They were well trained to pee pads and were just wonderfully happy when they came into their new home. I think that sometime in the near future there will be another Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund heading to our home as my daughter is so in love with Ella that when she decides to move out on her own she wants a doxie just like Ella Belle! I guess she will be making another trip to Tennessee!

Kevin and Tina are such wonderful breeders! We just adopted a long haired cream (Mr. Jack) and he is absolutely stunning! Seeing his little face pop up in the window when they drove to deliver him to us, I about died of how instantly I fell in love with him. He has the sweetest temperament and a beautiful coat. House training him surprisingly has been very easy due to Kevin and Tina using potty pads with him before we adopted him. We live in an apartment so we thought it was going to be a challenge to house train a puppy let alone a wiener puppy.
I previously adopted a Dachshund from Kevin & Tina many years ago and she was absolutely stunning with an amazing pedigree like our little Jack, so we plan to adopt another precious weenie from them and we can’t wait!
These breeders are truly a blessing!

Our family was looking to expand by four paws and when we found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, we knew it was going to be the perfect fit. Kevin and Tina were easy to work with and answered all of our questions. Their puppy knowledge is extensive, and their puppies are so sweet. We matched with our English Cream Louie, who is so mild-mannered but full of spunk! Coordinating and meeting Louie was very easy, and Kevin made the process as smooth as possible. I appreciate how down to Earth they are as well as how easy they are to ask for advise and suggestions. We are looking forward to many great years ahead with Louie.

We adopted our baby dachshund from Edward’s extraordinary dachshunds. Our experience dealing with Kevin and Tina was great! They answered all the emails within a timely fashion and the description of the puppies were spot on. This is our second dachshund that we have adopted into our family and we lost our first one after having him for 10 years. We picked our puppy up on Thursday evening and had him checked at the vet on Friday and the vet said he was in very good condition! Kevin and Tina are very nice people and we look forward to doing business with them in the future when we get another dachshund. If I you are hunting a dachshund, I would highly recommend Kevin and Tina at Edward’s extraordinary dachshunds.
Thank you!

We had a wonderful experience through the adoption process. We can tell you care where your little baby dolls go. We appreciate all the information on your website along with all the info you provided via email. The pickup process was smooth and the goody bag was a nice touch. We are happy and excited to have her and look forward to many years of joy. Thank you so much!

Thank you for a wonderful experience with Oliver the long-haired dachshund!
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the wonderful experience I had purchasing Oliver, the long-haired dachshund, from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund’s!
First and foremost, I want to thank them for taking such great care of Oliver. It's evident that they provided a loving and nurturing environment for him. He is such a happy and healthy pup!
I also wanted to commend them on their exceptional customer service. From the initial inquiry to the final adoption process, they were prompt, professional, and incredibly helpful. Their knowledge and expertise in dachshunds made me feel confident in my decision to bring Oliver home.
Not only did they provide accurate information about Oliver's breed characteristics and needs, but they also went above and beyond by providing me with valuable resources and tips for his care, as well as a goodie bag for the ride home. Their dedication to ensuring a smooth transition for both Oliver and me was truly the best.
I must say, Oliver has quickly become a beloved member of my family. His playful nature, affectionate personality, and those adorable long ears have brought so much joy into our lives. I cannot thank them enough for entrusting me with such a wonderful companion.
There outstanding services and genuine love for these furry friends make them an exceptional dog breeder/seller. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to bring a new four-legged family member into their lives.
Wishing you all the best,

“We absolutely love our new puppy from Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. The Edward’s know exactly what they are doing, as this is our second time adopting one of their pups. Our experience each time has been flawless. Our first puppy, Peanut, was an extremely well behaved, social, and energetic little buddy! The second time around, working with the Edward’s, we adopted “Bunny,” who we renamed Dolly Jane, and she is no doubt the best dog we’ve ever had. The Edwards kept her for an extra week, socialized her with the crate, and she was almost completely potty trained with potty pads, which easily translated to outside potty training, and she loves being in her crate. She is a wonderful dog and we already cannot imagine our lives without her. She is extremely smart, coachable, and eager to please. Furthermore, I think the Edwards’ puppies come with something really special, personalities full of love and affection, confidence, and security. Dolly is doing amazingly well for a 13 week old baby and does not show any signs of behavior issues or health problems. The vet said she is the epitome of perfect health! She is everything you could ever want in a puppy. We feel like she’s truly part of the family. Thanks to the Edward’s for being the very best at what you do!
The Johnston family - Knoxville, TN

8 years ago, we started the search for a second miniature dachshund to add to our family as our then 8-year-old dachshund Baxter needed a friend. We stumbled on the Edwards’s website and found our sweet little long-haired cream girl who we eventually named Winnie. Winnie has been an absolute joy in our lives ever since and, after sadly losing Baxter this past spring at age 16, we knew we wanted her to have another companion. Though we were grieving and not planning on getting a puppy for a year or so, we kept tabs on their website and immediately fell in love with a little red boy now named Bennie. The process of reserving Bennie for our family was just as easy as getting Winnie years ago. The Edwards were very prompt with their responses, helpful, and thorough with their questions (which we greatly appreciate as it protects the best interests of the puppies). They are very knowledgeable about the breed and dedicated to finding their pups the best homes. Picking up our little Bennie was a wonderful experience, and we are so thankful for their guidance and support not just in the puppy stages, but also later in our pups’ lives. We can’t imagine life without them! So far, Bennie has been as sweet, lovable, goofy, and happy as his sister. The Edwards undoubtedly love what they do, and we are so thankful for our two pups.
We hope to be repeat customers once again in the future. Thank you!

We adopted a beautiful mini long haired dachshund from Kevin and Tina and it was a great experience. They gave me all the information and goodies needed to get started with a new puppy and that was greatly appreciated. I also know that if I have any questions now or in the future that I can reach out to Kevin and Tina and they'd be happy to provide me with the guidance I need.
It's very obvious that Kevin and Tina truly care about the placement of their puppies and because of that I knew that I was making the right choice by going through them.
I highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and if we get another puppy in the future I plan on being a returning customer.

I recently got my second puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. My first was an English Cream long-haired boy many years ago. Sadly we lost him to an animal attack, and I watched their website until I saw Heath (now Teddy)! I instantly fell in love with his sweet little face, and contacted Kevin and Tina about getting him. They asked a ton of questions to make sure what kind of home he would be going to, and I was glad to answer them. We picked him up at the post office near their home, and he's the sweetest little angel! We look forward to many years with him.

Kevin and Tina were awesome to work with. Everything was smooth going and an awesome experience. Earlier this year we were scammed out of a dachshund which halted our search for a little while. A few months later I came across Kevin and Tina’s website and after inquiring I felt really good about them. They were so sweet and gave me so much information.
We absolutely adore our puppy from one of their litters and I would definitely work with them again!

Dear Kevin and Tina, I just want to thank you for making it possible to add to our family [again ]. We are so happy we got to adopt little sweet Gloria she's so full of life and already a big part of our family. She's done so well adapting to her new home. Gloria and Molly have taken right up with one another. We're so excited for the great years ahead. We can't help but think none of this would have been, had it not been for the awesome and caring job you both do. Thank you, with all of our hearts.
For anyone looking to adopt your next Dachshund,
I Highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, there's no scale high enough to put a rating on the care and dedication they put into these babies. All I can say is Kevin and Tina are above and beyond in what they do. We were comfortable getting our 2nd baby from these wonderful and loving people, without a doubt we'll be back!

Hello - our baby is doing great! The vet told us he is one of the most beautiful dachshunds she has ever seen!
And please know you have brought so much happiness to Kurt and me. Don’t be surprised if we end up with another one! We can’t thank you enough for this adorable friend.
We picked up our little Cooper last night. What a blessing he is! In just one day, he has brought so much sunshine into our lives. Cooper has already bonded with us. Our neighbors and friends think he is the cutest little guy ever! We can’t thank Kevin and Tina enough for raising such a beautiful boy. We are very grateful to know there are such wonderful people out there who care enough about their babies to be selective enough when it comes to choosing their forever homes!
Many blessings.

Thank you so much to Kevin and Tina for letting us have the opportunity to have Minnie join our home. In the day she has been home, her personality is already coming out, and she is such a playful and sweet dog. She and our dog Barney are getting along, and we are sure they will be best friends soon. Overnight we were concerned about her being nervous and not eating, and Kevin was prompt in giving suggestions on how to get her to eat and feel more comfortable. She is now adjusting to our home and exploring her area. We can tell she has been raised with a lot of love as she loves people and getting pets.
Our experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds was great. They were prompt with their responses and questions for us, and we can tell that they truly care for where their dogs end up. Their questions about us and our home were thorough, but not overwhelming. When picking her up, Kevin told us more about her personality and went over her vet records. She came home with a goody bag full of toys, a pee pad, a sample of her food, and a blanket with her littermates on it. We are so happy with the newest member of our family and feel that we can go back to Kevin and Tina if we have any questions. We are excited to see what the future holds for Minnie, and we are excited to keep Kevin and Tina updated.

My husband and I recently just adopted our second puppy from the Edward’s. Charlie has been with us for 3 weeks and is a wonderful addition to our family. He is training well and has a sweet disposition. We adopted our first puppy from the Edward’s 7 years ago and we are happy to report that George has been a sweet and loving member of our family ever since. Both are healthy, playful and beautiful. The Edward’s were extremely helpful in providing information about the breed and any information about raising our dachshunds. We have been so pleased with our pups from the Edward’s that our adult daughter also adopted a little piebald dog from them 2 years ago. We can’t say enough good things about them and their beautiful pups.
Thank you Tina and Kevin

Finding the Edwards family and their amazing breeding has truly been a blessing to my family and myself. We have gotten 3 dachshunds from them and I just received the third one, my little lover boy. Their process is amazing because they truly strive to make sure the dog is going to a good home. Their application process is thorough and well done. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I am very thankful that I was able to go through them and find another one of my little furever friend.

When we first got Kai (at the time his name was Bubba) I was nervous and excited. Jacob and I had just started our relationship and I didn't want to get attached to a puppy that wasn't going to be mine in the end. That all changed as soon as we drove away. Kai peed on me 30 minutes into our 7 hour drive home and I fell in love immediately for some reason. I told Jacob right then, "If we break up I'm keeping the dog" lol.
Two years later I transitioned out of the Navy and Kai was with me every step of the way. It was one of the most difficult times of my life and I can honestly say that he saved my life. Thanks to the puppy you gave us I did not become one of the 22 veterans a day that decide to leave this world behind. I will forever be grateful for Kai and you guys for this reason alone.
Depressing note aside, Kai is amazing. He's got so much sass and drama and we love him with all our hearts. He's learned how to sit, lay, roll, play dead, fetch, come when called, walk off leash during hikes and roll down all the windows in our cars (Thanks Jacob). All these behaviors took A LOT of work and we still don't have letting go of the ball during fetch down but, thankfully (much to Kai's detriment) our boy is very treat motivated. He's also learned how to pretend to be injured by walking around with a limp when he wants extra love and he figured that out all on his own. It cost us an arm and a leg at the vet but Jacob and I would spend all that money every time. We also figured out how to know when he's pretending, we simply ask if he wants to go to the park or wants a treat. He immediately stops pretending and acts offended when we call him a faker. It's so funny!
We are super proud of him! Kai has had no other serious health complications aside from the scare we had with sand impaction last summer. We used to take him to the beach often (it's his second favorite place) to get his digging energy out and we didn't know the volume of sand he was indirectly ingesting would almost kill him. Thankfully he passed the sand and didn't require surgery. Jacob and I agree that it was the worst night of our lives. Because of our carelessness we almost lost our best friend. Needless to say we don't take Kai to the beach anymore.
Before this email gets any longer I'll try to start wrapping up lol. Kai gets complimented on how beautiful he is everywhere we go. He loves the attention! Currently we are working on some behavior modification when it comes to his interactions with other dogs so that he can have a brother or sister before he becomes too much of an old man lol. Jacob graduated in December and is working on his masters in Athletic Training and I graduate next spring and have applied to dental school so none of us are really ready for a new baby right away.
Kevin and Tina I just want to say that you guys are amazing and gave us one of the best gifts in our life to date. I can't thank you enough for your professionalism, exceptional breeding skills, and extraordinary care (see what I did there😉😂) that you put into the animals you send out into the world. The past five years with Kai have been really great and we look forward to the rest of our time with him. As we celebrate his 5th year we toast to you and wish you success and good health.
With all of our love and appreciation,

Dear Kevin and Tina,
Thank you so much for the wonderful addition of Annie to our family. She has bonded with Sammy (the first puppy we got from you a few years ago) so much and brought joy back to us after losing our older Dachshund last year.
We were so pleased with the time and care you put into each puppy, we decided to adopt another dachshund. Annie is very affectionate, playful, and has a wonderful temperament, which is exactly what we were looking for. She loves both people and animals, and is smart, picking up things very fast. You stay true to the breed and place the puppy's best interest first and foremost. The care you take in placing the right puppy with the right family is exceptional noting the application process and questions asked. Your breeding program is truly “extraordinary”.
We loved working with you and while we hope it is a very long time before we need to look for another dog, we know who we will be going to when the time comes. We would be glad to speak to any families looking for a reference on your behalf.
Thank you again for our new family member!

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Extraordinary Dachshunds and the experience we’ve had.
We previously worked with Kevin & Tina last year, to find our newest family member Bennie. They were amazing with all of the experience they had with the breed, their love and attention to the animals, and the vast knowledge of bringing a new family member home. They were so kind and truly love these puppies as their own family.
We decided it was time to bring another puppy into the family, and they were the only ones that we would consider. Since we had such an amazing experience with Bennie, we knew that we would only get our next baby from the Edwards.
Just as before, it was another wonderful experience! We saw our puppy on their website, and knew he was the one! We reached out, and they were wonderful to respond quickly, and helped us to work through the process. They were great about providing a lot of information and preparing us for our new addition.
We arranged for a meeting time, and just like before, it was an amazing experience. They are such kind and caring people. They love these animals, and want to make sure they go to the best home.
After arriving home, they’ve continued to reach out, and provide great information. I am so thankful that we were so lucky to find this amazing breeder. I couldn’t be happier, and have no doubt that you will be too!

We decided to add another pup to our pack and I looked nowhere other than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We got our first fur baby from them 3 years ago, so we already knew the care and devotion they have for each pup. Communication is open and honest, and they give a lot of support and information at pick up.
Oshie was a little overwhelmed at first with his new brother, but one day later, they‘re snuggling and playing, and I’ll think they’ll be besties!

Kevin and Tina, I cannot thank you enough for letting me adopt this man!!! He has such a great personality and is turning into a true momma’s boy!😂 The beginning of this week was a little rough as you know, he would not eat anything and it was truly concerning. Your continued support and suggestions (and yeah I tried them all) to get him to eat and to keep him from getting sick with hypoglycemia was absolutely priceless!!! I’m so grateful that you didn’t hesitate to respond with suggestions and help ASAP. Thank goodness he did respond to the suggestions and now is eating much better. The whole experience was overall one of the best I’ve had with a breeder ever. He is still adjusting and making friends with his brother and sisters, but your support is well appreciated. Sincerely Thank You doesn’t cover it.

Kevin/Tina: We wanted to pass along how happy we are with our new pup. The adoption process was informative and thorough, but not overwhelming. She is a beautiful little girl with a sweet disposition. She tolerated the drive home quite well and she has adjusted nicely to her new surroundings, including her new big brother Ralphie. Her first Veterinarian visit went very well and she is in perfect health. This has been a great experience. Thank you so much!

This is our second time purchasing a Dachshund from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We bought our first Dachshund Esther back a few years ago. She has been the most wonderful dog. Esther has such a gentle demeanor, her health has been outstanding and of course she is the most beautiful dog in a black and cream. About a year and a half ago we started looking to add to our family. I tried to stay in touch with Kevin and Tina to check on any upcoming litters. When I got the word that there was going to be some shorthairs in one of the upcoming litters I checked the website daily. As soon as we saw Emma we immediately contacted Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We picked up Emma and she is a wonderful dog. She is extremely smart and of course she is beautiful. I could not imagine going anywhere else to select a Dachshund other than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. I have a sense of peace and security knowing that they are responsible Breeders. I strongly believe that Kevin and Tina go above and beyond regarding the quality of their breeding and they are the BEST at what they do. I also think it’s wonderful how they are very serious about making sure each of their pets goes to the absolute perfect home. If we ever decide to get a third dachshund, there’s no question as to where we would go.
They are the BEST!

I had been searching for a long haired cream miniature dachshund for about 4 months when I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. It was highly recommended by a family friend who had a wonderful experience with Kevin and Tina. I think I studied every page on their website for days because of how thorough and insightful all the information was- they are so knowledgeable about all things dachshunds! I checked the website every day for a cream litter and then boom, there one was! There were the most beautiful, happy, healthy puppies on their page. I applied for a cutie cream female in the litter & I emailed all my information to them; I heard back with very involved questions ensuring that the puppy was going to a suitable owner. I could tell that they really cared about who was going to be taking care of their puppies. After I was approved, Kevin and Tina kept me updated up until pick up date. On pick up day, they even ensured we came from our town the right way and didn't get lost. We arrived to meet them in the beautiful countryside that they live in and met our puppy. It was such a pleasant experience at the exchange- they let us get comfortable with them there as we interacted with Rhody. Had all the paperwork ready to go, and even gave us a bag of food, toys, information, and other helpful puppies necessities. After a few days of having this puppy, she has brought more light to our world than Kevin and Tina could imagine. They are wonderful people and we are thankful they take such great care of every dog & puppy.
I highly highly recommend them to anyone who wants a dachshund- best decision ever!!!! And they made it easy:)
Thank you guys!!!

We had been searching for a long haired dachshund for about a year. We heard about Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds from a stranger in Pet Smart parking lot in Cumming Ga. This family was so happy with their new addition and could not say enough good about Edwards Dachshunds. If that family did not add comments for Kevin & Tina you can consider this a 2 in 1 recommendation as they recommended them to us. We decided to visit their website. We watched it for a few weeks. THEN, there she was. We knew she was the one when we saw her listed. We reached out to Kevin & Tina. They were quick to respond. They really care about the homes they put their babies in. After we were approved we put the deposit down and arrangements for pick up were made. Kevin & Tina communicated with us almost every day. They directed us step by step all the way thru pick up and then some. They are VERY knowledgeable about the breed and offer recommendations and education to assist. Our new baby made a 4 ½ hour trip with no issues. When we got her home she was ready to play immediately. You could tell she had been well taken care of and loved. She went to her first vet appointment and received a clean bill of health. I hope Kevin & Tina know what joy they bring into homes and with families by breeding and raising these wonderful babies the way they do. We love our new addition so much. We would absolutely recommend them and will probably use them again soon. Thank You Kevin & Tina. You guys are wonderful!

We adopted a new girl, adding to our home, from the Edwards. We have had doxies for over 20 years but this little girl is special!! We call her LJ and she is a bundle of energy. She was immediately happy to meet our older girls, only one of whom was happy to meet her initially. (Our Cherokee is laidback & not quite sure how to handle LJs energy.) LJ did give her the space she wanted & now they are just fine together. LJ is a smart little girl & very loveable.
Kevin & Tina spend a lot of time getting to know their prospective parents, so this is not the place to call one day & pick up a baby the next. They want to know that their babies are going to be as well loved in their new home as they were in their first home. They are willing to share any info the new parents need, answer any questions, and offer lots of advice on how to best care for your new baby, even for "seasoned" doxie parents!! It's all for love of the baby & the breed.
Kevin & Tina were very nice & certainly knowledgeable about dachshunds. They certainly love this breed & all their babies & want what is best for them. They have communicated throughout the process, both before & after adoption. I feel certain that if I have any questions or concerns, even a few years down they road, they will be willing to help. I also think that we will be looking to them in the future for any additions to our family.
We are very happy with this new addition to our Jeep dog family!!

My family and I recently purchased an English cream, Long hair boy from Kevin and Tina and we are so happy! Tina and Kevin had excellent communication throughout the process, answering our questions timely and thoroughly. They truly care about their pups and the breed as a whole. They know their stuff! Even after getting our boy home we had questions since we have not had a puppy in our home In 18 yrs and are thankful they are open to ongoing communication!
Thank you Kevin and Tina, we would highly recommend you to anyone.

We recently adopted a red, long haired boy from The Edwards. We are so extremely happy with our baby, Nathan. We can tell that Kevin and Tina really put a lot of love into their puppies, as Nathan is the sweetest, most healthy, and happiest little boy. They were very thorough with the entire adoption process, making sure these puppies go to a safe and loving home. Kevin and Tina were sure to walk us through everything we needed to know before and even after adoption as far as getting Nathan settled into his new home. Their website provided us with a lot of really useful information, and from first glance we could just see the amount of detail they have put into everything. We would highly recommend this breeder if you are thinking about adopting a miniature dachshund. They really do care about these babies.
Thank you so much again Kevin and Tina, we could not be happier.

For months I struggled to find a mini dachshund breeder on the east coast who did not have a waitlist that was over a year to 2 years long. I stumbled across the Edwards site and immediately fell in love with all the fur babies I saw. After months of looking at the available pups on their website, on a daily basis, I finally decided to reach out and inquire about Whiskey, is a miniature longhaired red male dachshund.
Although the screening process is long and tedious, it is clear that Kevin and Tina do it because they care deeply about their pups and want to ensure that they are being placed in their perfect forever home. Kevin and Tina also were very willing to meet me halfway in Christiansburg, VA, to pick up Morley, so I did not have to drive the 8 hour drive to TN.
Whiskey, is everything we could have asked for, if not more. He took a few days to get accumulated, but is now a playful and loveable pup who loves squeaky toys, treats and cuddles. He has brought so much joy into my life already and I cannot wait to see how he grows over the years.
Thank you Kevin and Tina for allowing me to bring Whiskey into his forever home and raising such a sweet boy!

Our dachshund Bear had been diagnosed with congestive heart failure. We’d had him for 15 years and he’d been an intricate part of our lives. We also had another elderly dog & wanted a companion for her since she would be losing her best friend. When we knew his time was coming close, we decided to add another member to the family. We researched & came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Their website was very thorough, and we were so impressed by the information on their website.
We fell in love with “Benny”. I greatly appreciated their care into who was adopting their beautiful babies. It meant a lot to know they deeply cared what kind of forever home their baby would have. We were approved, and so happy to have a new addition to our family.
Since Bear’s health was declining, I reached out to see if we could pick up our pup earlier then discussed, and they were so generous to meet us early. Thankfully we were able to meet early to pick up Benny because the next day we lost Bear. Then sadly the day after that we also lost our sweet girl Cookie. We thank God that Benny was able to meet Bear & Cookie so a part of them will go on through him. I’m not sure what we would have done had we not had this precious puppy to come into our lives. He has helped to ease the pain and bring joy to what would have been a very dark time for our family.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about The Edwards, and what an exceptional job they’ve done raising these puppies! Our sweet boy is very healthy & was already potty trained! He has an amazing personality, very loving, beautiful, friendly, playful & very smart! We’ve already taught him to play fetch in the short time we’ve had him.
It was a wonderful experience to work with them and know that our puppy came from such wonderful caring people! We will definitely adopt from them again and would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing Doxie puppy!

I had been wanting a puppy for so for so long but the timing and life just had not lined up. Finally the stars aligned and Kevin and Tina helped make my dream a reality! We drove down from Massachusetts and they were so helpful throughout the entire process of getting my dream pup. They gave tons of very helpful information! What I liked most is you can tell THEY REALLY CARE. They love these pups and are such kind loving people. Willa is such a beautiful, amazing and sweet pup, everything I dreamed she would be and more. I can’t thank them enough for this beautiful addition to my life.

I write with enthusiasm to recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone eager to adopt a dachshund. My family adopted Sage (a red, short-haired miniature dachshund) from the Edwards in June, when she was four months old, and she instantly became a cherished member of our family. From the start Sage has been altogether happy, healthy, playful and well-mannered, with both people and other dogs, who we introduced her to gradually. Whether chasing a toy, sunning herself on the lawn, or cozying up to my children for a scratch behind the ears, Sage melts our hearts daily. It is evident that she was well-cared for and deeply loved by the Edwards.
Speaking to the Edwards, and based on my experience with them, it is difficult for me to imagine how any other breeder could be more professional or devoted to the best interests of the dogs they are placing. The application process featured just the right amount of rigor to let me and my family know that they took very seriously their vetting of ‘forever homes’ for their dogs. They also were very responsive in answering my questions, and once the arrangements had been they kindly drove more than three hours to meet us half way for the hand-off of Sage. They stayed for a time at the travel center where we met to speak with my young son and I, to offer guidance on training and caring for Sage.
As I write, our new family member is gently pressing her nose against my foot, reminding me that it is time for her morning walk. So I will hastily close this review by saying that we renamed her to “Sage.” My wife and I have two boys, no girls. Sage was the name we picked out if we had a daughter.

For awhile I had been looking to adopt a dog and nothing seemed to work out. As I was about to give up on finding a dog to add to my family, I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and instantly fell in love with their beautiful puppies! Before emailing Mr. and Mrs. Edwards with my interest to adopt, I read their page thoroughly as there is a a lot of comprehensive, and very helpful information on their site with what the adoption process looks like, their purchase requirements, and even helpful tips on how to train your new puppy! From their website and the initial conversation I had with them to make sure I was the right fit to adopt one of their puppies, I knew they cared very much about what they do and were making sure that whoever they invited to be apart of their extended family would also care for the puppies as much as them. Overall I was very happy with the experience I had adopting my new fur baby and I cannot thank Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds enough for making my dreams to adopt come true!
I highly highly HIGHLY recommend them if you decide to adopt a dog!

There are not enough words to express how grateful I am for the Edwards. I lost my best friend, a little Yorkie, of 12 years a few months ago and never thought I'd love a dog ever again let alone want one. I've always adored dachshunds, and I felt as if it was time to open my heart again to another puppy; this time, a long, little bundle of joy. I tirelessly searched the internet for puppies available, almost giving up a countless amount of times due to scammers or no puppies available at all. I feel as if something pulled me towards their website, as they had one puppy left in the litter I first saw. I instantly was in contact with the Edwards, and they kept up the pace of responding to me every single day as we figured things out. Fast forward, I am typing this as I sit next to my sleeping little Oliver. My family and I decided to adopt a puppy from them, driving 4 hours to Tennessee, and when I tell you it was more than worth it, I mean it! He is the sweetest little dog I have ever seen in my life. I even started to cry when I saw him wrapped in a baby blanket! Helpful is an understatement when describing the experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. They were kind, thoughtful in the entire process (thorough yet worth it because they genuinely care), and stood with us in the heat to answer all the questions my family and I had. Everyone who sees him says he is just absolutely BEAUTIFUL. The whole street brought him presents and ADORES him! He is unbelievably beautiful and healthy and we are so so blessed to receive a little one this special. Two friends already went to check out their website and wanted a puppy just like Oliver. I would do it again in a heartbeat with them, and honestly, probably only them. Thank you to the Edwards for this amazing experience and to help make this traumatic year easier.

I came across the Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website once we decided we were ready for another fur baby. I visited their site multiple times, reading about them, their pups and their purchase requirements before finally reaching out to them.
I was immediately impressed with Kevin & Tina’s love for their babies and their determination to only place their pups in loving, forever homes. Their questions about our family, our home and suggestions for a safe environment were thorough and complete.
At pickup, we were provided with very detailed health records. This was very helpful for her first Vet visit where she got a clean bill of health. We’ve had our little Roxy for a week now. She’s a very affectionate, playful girl and a total joy to have around.
Our experience with the Edwards’ has been fantastic, they are indeed extraordinary and we highly recommend them to other doxie loving families.

For weeks i had been searching for another little one to add to my family, i came across the Edwards website, found Star and immediately fell in love with her. One that greatly impressed me was the way the Edwards were so picky about who adopts their babies, it was a long wait but well worth it. These little ones deserve only the very best out of life and I appreciate that they are screening the way they are. The Edwards were very nice and easy to work with and very helpful with any questions I had regarding my baby. I am very thankful for them and their dedication to the breed, will definitely adopt again from them. Thank you again so much.

We adopted two miniature dachshunds about two weeks ago from Kevin and Tina at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. The puppies were already 10 months old so we didn't know what behavior to expect from them. To our delight, the pups have wonderful personalities. Not only are they beautiful and healthy, they are friendly, playful, smart, and down right lovable. They love to sit on our laps and shower us with kisses; exactly what we wanted!
These charming fur babies are a perfect addition to our family.
The Edwards have done an exceptional job raising "Extraordinary" pups. We are very pleased with the whole experience. They were very pleasant and professional. We could tell that they really care about their babies health and well being as well as their futures. The information provided on their website was thorough and easy to understand. It was a pleasure working with them. We would definitely adopt from them again, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a great quality pet.

Recently we lost our baby Mandee to cancer after 12 years. We were devastated, decided we were not going to have anymore dogs, wrong, couldn't stand the loneliness, started to look on line, found Edwards extra ordinary dachshunds, we spotted Sally on their website she was the one, something just seemed right. We must try to get her, we went through screening with pictures of our house, etc. it was pretty tough but she is worth it. Got approved and scheduled to go pick her up, we met Tina as Kevin was under the weather. Sally was everything we expected and more, beautiful, we get compliments on her every where we go she is healthy, paper trained and our new best buddy, she has eased our pain immediately. She follows us everywhere, if you stop she will run into you. She sleeps between us every night very loveable she has been to vet very healthy girl. Thank you to Kevin and Tina for being there to raise doxies for people who need a loving companion. Please see them for a terrific and loyal friend you won't be disappointed they are strict to protect their babies just do this you won't regret it.

I realized tonight as I was holding Simone that I hadn’t yet given you my review for the website; apologies for the delay! She is a long-haired cream puppy that I purchased from you, Kevin & Tina. The process to purchase was incredibly thorough and I knew that from the questions being asked that this puppy was coming from a loving breeder and warm home. Simone (as she is now called) is just the sweetest, most loving puppy you could ask for, and I’m sure much of that can be attributed to her upbringing in Kevin & Tina’s home. She has been to the vet and has continually received a clean bill of health over the past four months since I picked her up. Simone has also adjusted quite well with her older “brother from another mother” Carlton. He was 2 years old when she joined our little family, and while stand offish at first (never mean), he has warmed up to having a little sister and they love playing together & snuggling constantly. Simone has the most beautiful English cream coat, and nearly daily she receives compliments and pets from strangers who admire her beauty. She’s very well-mannered and has shown no signs of aggression over food or toys; she’s just a sweetheart! Again, I thank Kevin & Tina for their wonderful upbringing of this puppy and for the meticulous inspection into ensuring this pup has a loving home – she is living a full and very happy life in Virginia. Thank you!

We recently adopted a sweet little cream girl dachshund, which we named Joy! Since she is almond color we named her Joy for Almond Joy! She has a 3.5 year old chocolate and cream dachshund big brother named Snickers, which we also adopted from the Edwards. We enjoyed our sweet boy so much, we began to think about a buddy for him!! When we got serious about it, the only place we even considered or looked at was the Edwards’ doxie’s!! They are great to work with! They are very knowledgeable about this special breed. They were always very responsive and helpful when we had questions especially with our first.....and like to continue to be updated on the puppies’ progress! Even though we had previously gone through them to adopt Snickers, they still had questions, wanted pictures, etc. of the home of where little Joy would be! A previous adoption is not an automatic approval without the process, because they are thorough and care about the home their babies go to. I appreciate that about them! Our Snickers has been healthy and has a very sweet disposition and I can tell already Joy too is very people friendly.....she loves everyone!
So, if you are looking for a healthy, sweet dachshund......you can certainly find one with these dachshund loving breeders! Thank you Kevin and Tina for these two sweet fur babies that have brought much fun, laughter and “joy” into this retired couple’s lives....our grandchildren adore Snickers and can’t wait to meet Joy!!

Kevin and Tina were awesome to work with. They are kind, loving, and welcoming. They are very thorough in their selection process for homes, which I appreciate. It let us know right off the bat that they love all of their babies. Our puppy, Pippin, is absolutely beautiful - he’s a long-haired black and cream. We’ve had him almost a month and everyone just gushes over how gorgeous he is. Not only that, he has done great since we got him home. He was 3 months old when we got him and was already using the puppy pad and responding to the word “no” which made his transition so much easier. We also can’t say enough about the Edwards’ knowledge of dachshunds. They had a ton of advice for us and just know their breed so well. Theirs also had a large selection on their updated website, which was unlike many breeders we looked at previously. We left the day of pickup with a blanket, toys, food sample, and document that detailed every worming and vaccine he had since birth in a very organized way. This made it very easy for our vet. If we decide to get another dachshund
(which we are already talking about!) - we will definitely head back over to East Tennessee!

I wanted to thank both of you for such a pleasant experience in adopting Lea and Leo. When I first visited your website I knew that you cared for your babies and that you wanted to ensure that they were placed in a safe loving forever home. After several email’s required in the adoption process, I finally received the one I most wanted and that I was approved to put a deposit down on my babies. I had a standard doxie for 12 years and had lost her recently. I knew she couldn’t be replaced but I also knew I needed another fur baby to love. My intention was to adopt one doxie but after looking at all the puppies that where available I fell in love with two. What a blessing that has turned out to be. When the day came to pick up my babies I was so nervous, taking on two puppies I knew that would be a challenge. To my pleasant surprise it has been very easy. I have to give all the credit to Kevin and Tina. I could tell from the first night that Kevin and Tina had spent a lot of time preparing their babies for the transition to their forever home. I could tell when it was time for me to take my babies home that it was not easy for the Edwards to let them go. They asked that I stay in touch and that if I ever had any questions to please contact them. On the first night home they both used the potty pads , ate a good supper and explored their surroundings, then slept all night. They have never barked and have slept every night without issue. Having a blanket to take home with me with their litters mates scent on it was so thoughtful. It made the transition from the Edwards home to mine so much easier for my babies. They are not shy and love attention. I have never laughed so much and been loved so much since picking up Leo and Lea.
I took them to the vet for a check-up and shots and she was so impressed as to how well they had been cared for. They both had clean ears, nails trimmed and well mannered. Also, having the records of all the shots already given and information about each puppy allowed the vet to know exactly what was needed that visit. When I am showing off my babies I always mention the Edwards and how wonderful they are to work with and how much they care about their babies.

My husband and I picked up our little guy a little over eight months ago now, and are still so in love. We named our pup Adler, and I honestly think he gets cuter every day! He adjusted to his new surroundings quickly, and loves playing with his sister Abby who is an eight year old black lab. Adler has the sweetest disposition, and loves to cuddle. He goes with me everywhere!
I’m grateful for all the questions Kevin and Tina asked throughout the process. It is obvious how much they care for their pups, and it’s comforting knowing they really are looking for good homes for their babies.
I would highly recommend Kevin & Tina to anyone looking for a Dachshund puppy!
Thank you both so much for such a wonderful little guy.
My heart truly feels happy.

We recently purchased a beautiful short haired miniature dachshund from Kevin and Tina and it was a wonderful experience. Our little girl is just perfect and we are already madly in love with her. From our first e-mail contact with Kevin and Tina, they were very prompt and thorough in all our correspondence. From our first e-mail it was abundantly clear that Kevin and Tina are very passionate about their dogs and ensuring that their puppies are placed with loving families. When I met Kevin and Tina, they were extremely helpful with answering all my questions and they set me up for success with our new baby girl. Our puppy was healthy, alert, and the happiest little soul. We drove the eight hours home and the puppy slept peacefully the entire ride home. As soon as she met our daughters, she woke up and they have been inseparable ever since! Overall Kevin and Tina have been amazing and we highly recommend them and their pups!

We recently purchased a sweet puppy from the Edwards and have been thrilled with our happy, healthy little girl! Kevin and Tina are wonderful breeders and take great pride in their breeding business. They show great concern for their pups and are very careful about who they accept as adoptive parents. They ask the right questions to assure the puppy is going to a safe and happy home! Their website is full of helpful information and tips on how to have a successful transition to your puppies’ new home! After doing an extensive search for a puppy their website and attention to details stood out far above any others, thus making our choice an easy one!
My husband and I would highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking to adopt a new furbaby.

Kevin and Tina have been so great through the entire adoption process of our little fur baby. You can tell how much they care about what they do and make sure all their babies are healthy and going to great homes. They have sent us numerous suggestions and helpful information on how to get your puppy adjusted to their new environment along with open communication if anything should come up in the future.
I would absolutely recommend these breeders!
Thank you again,

We recently purchased a beautiful little puppy from the Edwards and were very impressed with the whole experience!
Our family had never owned a pet before and we were a bit nervous after some not so good experiences in trying to communicate with another breeder, but the Edwards are amazing people who really care about their puppies and where they go and that put us at ease. They answered all the questions we asked. We were looking through litters when we came across Butternut and we knew she was the one. We got in contact with Kevin and Tina and they responded right away. They required us to give a lot of information and pictures, which only showed us how much they cared for the pup’s safety. After a few more emails, we were accepted and able to put a deposit on her!
Our family had a hard time waiting for the day until we could pick her up, but it finally came and we started the road trip to TN. We updated the Edwards on our location and they gave us very clear directions on how to get to their house. Once we arrived, Tina came out with the little puppy in her arms wrapped in a blanket. The Edwards then gave us with her previous shot records, gave us tons of valuable information on what to do once we got home, and gave us a gift bag with toys and a sample food bag and more. They were extremely nice and answered all of our questions! During the 10 hour road trip our puppy hardly cried at all. She fell asleep in my daughters lap and was amazing the whole ride.
When we got home she used her pee pads, which was really a bonus for us. She actually cried more on the second night than the first, but that can be expected with a new puppy. She didn’t eat or drink for the first day, so we contacted Kevin and Tina and they told us what to do and not to worry. We have had her for a week now and she is eating, drinking, sleeping through the night (except to go potty), and playing with the whole family.
We are so happy and thankful for our joyful little puppy and can’t thank the Edwards enough! The only other thing I want to mention is that no matter how cute they look in the pictures, they won’t even compare to how adorable they are real life! Thank you so much Kevin and Tina for the smooth and amazing process and if we ever want another mini dachshund we will definitely come back here!
If you’re looking for a sweet little miniature dachshund in your life, the Edwards are breeders who really care about the perfect homes for their puppies, and that means taking into account your life situations and making sure you’re the perfect family for one of their puppies. :)

I was searching for a Dapple Dachshund when I came across Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. The info, pictures, and reviews on the page had me sold. Any questions I needed to ask were on the website or Kevin and Tina answered with no problem. I live in GA and buying a puppy in TN, I was nervous, but Kevin and Tina have a wonderful process that made me feel at ease. They asked questions about where the puppy would live and the lifestyle it would lead,because they don’t sell puppies they place puppies. This process made me feel comfortable knowing they took time to get to know the potential parents. I knew if this was their standards; then I knew the puppy was coming from a wonderful home. I was right! They communicated with us every step of the way and gave us excellent service when we arrived to pick up our new pup. They explained everything, answered questions, and asked to stay in connect with us as the little one adjusted. We absolutely love our new puppy!!! We named him Euro! He is beautiful & healthy.
I would highly recommend Edward’s Dachshund for their EXTRAORDINARY SERVICE.

What a wonderful experience finding our new addition to our family with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Last April we loss our little 13 year old Daisy with complications of being diabetic. Heartbroken we needed time to heal before looking for another pet. This past fall we had started talking about maybe it was about time to start thinking about looking around for a breeder. Our home was just to quiet and lonesome for the both of us without a pet. We had always had a furbaby....all the years when we were raising our children and then with the empty nest we continue to always have a pet so it was time for us to go out on that adventure again and add to our family. I was in hopes that we might find a good breeder in our area but what we found just didn’t feel right when I would talk with them. I continued to look at everything that was within a hundred mile radius but still coming up with a bad feeling in my gut. We were looking for a good baby, not a poor puppy mill pet. I knew that my sister that lives in IN. had purchased a beautiful Piebald from a place somewhere up in the Smokies about five years ago. He’s a handsome boy. My husband is partly disabled so I was sure trying to fine a good breeder without having to travel very far. Telling my sister what a hard time we were having finding anything that I felt right about. She encouraged me to look at Edwards web site. I did and the more I read the better I felt like this is where I need to go even if it was not very near where we live. I contacted them with an email and begun my journey to find our new baby. It made me feel like we for sure had found the right place by all the questions they ask. It made me feel like they were very concerned where their babies went. I had not had that experience with any of the other breeders I had talked to. We email back and forth several times because they needed to know as much as possible about us to see if they could consider us as adoptive parents for one of there beautiful puppies. Oh how happy we were when the email came saying we were approved. We were dreaming of a chocolate baby girl and on Jan.13 Bubbles had a beautiful litter. There she was.....the only chocolate..... and precious right in the middle of a litter of dapples. We sent our deposit immediately. The time came to go pick her up and we were so excited. Three hundred miles one way.... it rained all the way with lots of fog but we made it. We stayed over in a little town near by and not far from them. The next morning we made our Journey to their beautiful place high on their mountain.... what a beautiful area. Was met by Kevin at the door and there Tina stood with our little darling all wrapped in a sweet baby blanket. My heart melted...my eyes teared....and it’s complete love at first sight. Kevin and Tina were a joy to meet and so easy to talk to. They were eager in answering my many questions.... giving me so much helpful information. They prepared a sweet little gift bag with toys, food dish, pee pad for the car ride. This was so appreciated. There was a little baby blanket that had the litter sent on it which was so comforting to our baby all the way home. We then started our trip back and it rained and there was fog and it also stormed. It was a slow hard three hundred miles home but oh so worth it. She is doing Great and the Vet said she was healthy and from fine stock and beautiful. We are so happy with our new baby girl. This has been a wonderful experience. We would highly Highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anybody that’s looking for a Great Breeder and a wonderful Quality Puppy. When the time comes for another baby we won’t ever consider looking anywhere else. A big Big thank you to Kevin and Tina.

Thank you Kevin and Tina for the great adoption experience. We picked up Toby two weeks ago and he adjusted very quickly. It’s clear that Kevin and Tina love what they do and take great pride in providing healthy, happy puppies, and top-notch service and support. They truly care for their puppies, even after puppy leaves to their new homes.
Kevin and Tina have a rigorous vetting process to ensure the puppies have save and happy homes.
They also provide tons of information and advice based on their vast expertise and experience.
Receiving Toby already puppy pad trained was a huge plus.
We highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if your looking for healthy, great looking miniature dachshunds.

We bought our baby from the Edwards. We bought ours at 12 weeks old and she was the sweetest baby in the world. She was completely healthy. We got her and she was already completely potty pad trained. She has been doing amazing. She is honestly the sweetest puppy ever. Even the Vet. was just shocked with how sweet and cuddly she is.
The application might look intimidating but I promise if you really want the addition it is worth it. Dogs are a long term commitment so the application is not a big deal at all. They are always there to answer your questions and concerns.
Just wanted to thank y’all again she is everything we could’ve expected and more.
I could not recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds enough.

Our first night home with our baby and we are in love. After countless hours of searching the internet we came across your website. We had emailed a few but did not get a good feeling. Once we found your website and spotted Paco we knew this was the one. You responded so quick. We highly appreciated the process and knew you loved these puppies. Paco is such a beautiful sweet puppy and we can not wait to see him grow. We thank you for being so helpful and answering all our questions. Your website is full of wonderful information.

We came across Kevin & Tina’s website during our search for an adult dachshund to adopt. Initially, we were really impressed with how informative and thorough their website was. We made an inquiry with the hopes of adopting Pearl. The process took longer than we anticipated, but we came to understand and fully appreciate their process because it is all done for the love of their beautiful babies. They truly want to make sure that each adoption will be as close to a perfect fit as possible. Once we were approved, they also worked with us to make the timing of our pickup appointment to be what would be best for Pearl. And even now that we’ve had Pearl a few weeks, they still check in every so often just to see if all is going well and whether we need any tips or advice.
As for our new baby Pearl, she is such a sweet girl! She is good natured and you can clearly tell she has been raised in a loving home. She came to us very healthy and got a clean bill of health from the vet who was also impressed with how perfectly clean her ears were. She is adapting to our family very well and her personality is really starting to shine through. We’ve had her 3 weeks and she has made a lot of progress on house training. She is becoming a good little sister to our 7 y.o. dachshund Petie and we all love her very much already.
We highly recommend Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking to adopt a dachshund of any age. If we decide to adopt another doxie in the future, we definitely won’t go anywhere else. Thank you Kevin & Tina for the love you share through these beautiful animals!

We just picked up our sweet baby a couple days ago and as soon as I saw his precious little face, I knew he was perfect for us. We had a 6 hour car ride and he was an angel. He didn’t get sick and slept most of the way. He’s still learning his way around, and trying to figure things out at home, but he LOVES to be held and snuggle and play with his little ball given to us in the thoughtful care package provided at pick up. We are trying to potty train and so far, he’s only had 1 accident off the pee pad. It’s obvious Kevin and Tina put so much love and care into their puppies. They want to make sure they all go to the right home and were very thorough with the instructions and information to help us all with the transition. After researching several options and almost being scammed with other “breeders”, we were happy to find their website and we will highly recommend them to all of our friends looking for a mini dachshund in their lives.
The Stevenson family - Haymarket, VA
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In 2013, we dog sat for two weeks for a friend who had a miniature dachshund and fell in love. Immediately when my friend came to pick her up, I began my quest to find a similar miniature dachshund to add to our family. I stumbled upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and looked no further. I was so impressed with everything about the process (from them interviewing me, to wanting to know more about other animals/pets in our family to the truly "extraordinary" care that they went about in explaining how to care for a mini, what to expect, etc. Once we adopted Maybelle (formerly Pebbles) our hearts were full and she has been the most loving, sweet, sugar lump I have ever adopted. My husband made ramps for both areas of our deck as well as a ramp onto our bed and he even made her her own baby bed that is an extension of our bed and has 3 sides and an open top so that she could never roll off or fall out. Flash forward 5 years, Maybelle is thriving and loving life but we felt it would be good for her and US to contact Kevin and Tina so we could begin the adoption process again. I had been on their website (yes, I admit, as I do every month or so just to check out the new pups) and I ran across the most beautiful little baby, Dolly and I knew she would be perfect for our family. We picked up Dolly yesterday and she was so good on the ride home. When we got home, she was napping a lot (probably due to the most active day of her life thus far) but then she got her 2nd wind late in the evening and starting eating and going potty on her pee pads and even playing a little. She slept almost all night her first night here and today she has been a joy to have around. She is eating well, going potty, playing and making this doggie mom really happy to see her in such good spirits after leaving the loving home of Kevin and Tina to move to ours. My husband and I decided that we will probably adopt another in the future, perhaps every 4 or 5 years, just to keep all stages of the dachshund life cycle alive in our home. We have fallen in love with this breed and probably will never own another breed (it's hard to match PERFECT).
Thanks Kevin and Tina for all you do for the babies prior to them leaving your home!
I highly recommend you to all who want to add a dachshund to their family!

They are very knowledgeable about the breed and what it takes to be a Doxie parent! I appreciate your knowledge and how committed you guys are to making sure all of your babies are well cared for and placed with families who will love them forever!

First I would like to say thank you so very much Kevin and Tina for allowing us to be Molly,s forever home. I will recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to everyone. Kevin and Tina not only love their babies, they also really care who their forever home is go to be with. I lost my chocolate and tan female dachshund of 14 yrs very recently. She was the love of my life and it left a large hole in my heart. So i started my search for a new baby to fill that void in my heart. I searched the web and found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, contacted them and began the process of adopting our new baby. After several emails the day came to pick up or new baby, when Tina put Molly in my arms for the first time, it was love at first sight. That hole in my heart was instantly filled.
Thank you Kevin and Tina for your dedication and all that you do!
God bless you!

"Kevin and Tina have been very helpful with this whole puppy process. They provide a ton of helpful information and are the MOST thorough breeders I have ever met. They care about their puppies deeply and make sure they are going to the best home they possibly can and do it for a very fair and reasonable price instead of just focusing on making money and giving them to anyone and everyone without knowing anything about the person or where they may be going. They are very responsive, professional, and on top of things. They are accommodating with picking your puppy up, whether you go to their house or they meet you somewhere. Both Kevin and Tina are very pleasant and nice to work with and I would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a high quality and good looking miniature dachshunds. I love my new puppy and am so glad to have found them via Google search!

We have had our boy 5 weeks today! After the first night, he has slept all night, every night. Our 2 yr. old dachshund didn’t warm up to him at first. It took around 3 weeks (or more) before she considered him her best friend..ha ha. Now, she looks for him and they love napping together. He is still learning the ropes, but hopefully she will help him out more now. He is a cuddle bug and we love that!
Some things we felt were wonderful in our puppy purchase process were the fact you asked questions. I had no problem answering any questions or sending pictures from our home to show we were serious about adopting a puppy. It showed us you care where your puppies are going and what home environment they will have. And the deworming/vaccination schedule you have was spot on. The provided documentation told us everything we needed to know to provide to our vet. We very much appreciated your working with us for a scheduled pick up date.
We are having fun watching our puppy grow. He is so friendly and loves everyone he meets. Everyone comments on his beautiful eyes! Thanks again for a great addition to our family.

We hope that this email finds you both well!
Now that we are all settled in, we wanted to give you an update on our little Cali.
The first few weeks were rough at night time, but she’s settled in well now and knows that when its lights out, she goes to her bed and we go to ours. It was a hard concept for her grasp at first, but she’s finally got it. She has since gone to the vet twice.
As far as her personality, she’s an absolute love bug and eager to please (sometimes!) She now knows, 'sit', ‘paw', ‘down' and ‘jump'. We’re currently working on ‘stay’ - but its proving to be a bit of a challenge for a puppy her age! Watching her grow over the last 4 weeks has been such a treat. This tiny little pup that we were scared to bring home is growing to be a sweet, curious, smart and confident gal. We love taking her out and seeing how much she enjoys to meet new people from all walks of life. The fact that you start training the puppies with pads has been extremely helpful. We anticipated far more accidents than she’s actually had, so that has been really nice for us. She absolutely loves the toys you gave her, and we’ve also added a quite a few to her collection. We’d like to let you know that dealing with you has been a very pleasant experience from start to finish. The detailed questions you ask only proves that you’re looking for the best possible family for your puppies. We have since given your contact information to a few people, including a Doxie Mom on our flight back to Miami. We’ll continue to recommend you to anyone looking for a happy, healthy Dachshund. Naturally, we were extremely hesitant to buy a puppy ‘online’ and had really only been looking locally until we stumbled across your website. What a wonderful decision we made in adding Cali to our family.
She’s already brought us so much joy, and we look forward to many, many years with her by our side.

It's been about a month now since I've had Oskar at home and he's been an absolute joy. I deeply appreciate the time, care and love Tina and Kevin put into raising their pups. It can be tricky getting a pup from afar, going on little more than a picture, so when I came upon Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds, I knew I had found the right place. All of the questions they asked about the environment in which the pup would be living, and whether I had thought through all of his needs, reassured me that they put a tremendous amount of care and concern into raising and placing their pups. Oskar was a little wary during the long car ride home from Tennessee, but he settled in within hours. As I watch him race around playing with a toy right now, it's hard to believe he's already been with me for several weeks, and hard to imagine not having this little guy in my life.

My boyfriend and I recently adopted a puppy from the Edwards and it has been a wonderful experience from start to finish. We found their website after countless hours of searching for the best breeder for us. Their website was very impressive and thorough! We found a pup that caught our eye and knew instantly he was the one we wanted. We sent them an email and they emailed back very fast. Their adoption process involves a lot of questions and effort on the buyers end but this made us super comfortable as we knew they cared for these puppies immensely. The weeks we had to wait to get our new baby felt like forever but the day finally came and we got to meet the Edwards and our new addition Obi. The Edwards were extremely nice and explained everything to us. We could tell the puppy was well cared for the second we saw him. We're now home back in Pennsylvania and all settled in and he has been the best pup! Obi is such a happy puppy and such a joy to watch. He is very well behaved and super comfortable around all the people he's met so far! He's a little lover and you can tell he was loved on from the second he was born. He's very well adjusted - noises don't phase him whether it's the vacuum, the tv, or trucks driving by! The vet told us we have a super healthy puppy and gave him a clean bill of health. We can't wait to watch Obi grow and he is the best addition to our little family! We would definitely recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone looking for a great puppy coming from a great breeder. We certainly know we'll make the long trip back to Tennessee if we ever want another dachshund!! We can't thank them enough.

After loosing my beloved dachshund I had for thirteen years, I found myself pondering if the timing was "right" to get another "baby". I did some soul searching and decided it was time and I adopted my new baby "Oakley" from Kevin and Tina. Without a doubt this was the best decision. I did not know Kevin and Tina and happened to stumble on their website. I had spoken with some other prospects but as soon as I received the first communication from Kevin and Tina, I had a sense of comfort that they truly cared about each "baby" and their goal was to make sure each one was placed in a loving environment. I knew this is where I wanted to adopt my next baby. I completed the process required by Kevin and Tina (which is detailed but very much in every one's best interest) and put my deposit on Oakley. I drove over from Asheville, NC to pick up my new baby and it was truly love at first sight. Oakley snuggled immediately. Every single day I truly ask myself how I got so lucky to get a baby with such a sweet temperament. He is full of energy, loves to play but when he gets tired he wants nothing more than to snuggle. I have been very pleased with potty training. Kevin and Tina started with pee pads and all I had to do is put one outside in a confined area and he has only had one tiny accident(of course I have to keep a close eye and take him our frequently). He is already walking with a harness and is not afraid to explore. He isn't startled easily by noises and is very loving towards people (he isn't shy). There is no doubt that Kevin and Tina work with each baby to prepare them for the transition into a new loving environment and I am so appreciative. After I left with my new baby, they kept in touch to make sure the transition was going well. I highly recommend the Edwards if you are searching for a new baby. As I stated, I did not know them previous to this adoption and just as anyone, my biggest fear was finding a baby that wasn't healthy or came from a "puppy mill". This is not the case with - Kevin and Tina, they are truly the "real deal". It is evident they love the breed, they love each baby and their top priority is making sure each and every one has a long, happy and healthy life. I am just very happy and love my new baby, Oakley!

I had known for a while that I had wanted a dachshund and for the last two years I did research, but was always brought back here. When I was finally ready to bring a Doxie into my life it’s no wonder I reached out to the Edwards. They are so thorough with their questions you can tell they won’t let these precious babes go to just anyone. I adopted my Vienna and she was a doll from the start. She knew how to use a pee pad, she loved to give kisses, and she goes down for her nap in her bed no problem. I could keep bragging forever but I will say if you’re looking for a breeder of QUALITY dachshunds you’ve come to the right place.

We just recently decided to add another addition to our family and while searching for dachshunds stumbled across the Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds web page. The whole process from start to finish was very detailed and easy to understand. From the questions asked you could really understand that they care for their puppies very much and want nothing but the best for them. We had a great experience and would definitely go to them again.

We made a six hour drive to pick up our little girl, Stella. She is a blessing in our life. This blue eyed girl was wrapped in a baby blanket when I first saw her. I was immediately in love! My heart melted. She is developing the cutest personality! Full of love and loves to play and cuddle. She is eating, drinking, and napping and learning something new everyday! Kevin and Tina are the best! Very professional, educated, and organized. I felt comfort in knowing Stella was coming from a loving, caring place. They won’t let just anyone have these puppies. They make sure the baby is going to a forever home that will provide love and care that they need. On pickup day, we received a goodies bag, information on which vaccines she needs in the future, and tips for success on our pup!
We definitely recommend the Edwards for adopting a Dachshund from.

Since our blk/tan passed 1 & half years ago, our home has just not been the same. After 15+ years of having a “ fur baby” in the house, the silence had become VERY loud and we started looking for a new baby off and on for months. We had an idea of what we wanted in a new baby but she was very difficult to find; as she is unique in her beautiful colors, and one blue eye.
Finally….It was by God’s grace that we stumbled upon the Edward’s website and we are so IN LOVE with Izzie Bee. She has brought “life” to our home again and already such a blessing to us. She was definitely worth the 12 hour drive to their beautiful hill-top farm home – one way!
I can’t say enough great things about the Edward’s and the way they operate their adoptions. You know immediately that they are very detailed, concerned and want only the BEST Forever Home for their babies. It actually gave us comfort in knowing they were so thorough, not only explaining the process in great detail but wanting to know about our family in great detail to ensure the proper placement. “Extraordinary” certainly lives up to its name, not only with their babies but the entire process!
When we are ready to add another baby, only “Extraordinary” will be the option!
Thank you Kevin and Tina for blessing us with Izzie Bee and bringing life back to us!
God Bless

My husband and I purchased two long haired dachshunds over the years from the Edwards- one male and one female. These pups brought us such joy and enriched our lives so much that we made the decision to adopt “just one more” to complete our furry family. We found a real cutie pie when we saw Pat last month on their website (who is actually our male dog’s stepbrother!) So, we decided to make the trip from Atlanta to their beautiful home in scenic East, TN. We loved Pat’s unique markings (black and white with extreme ticking (freckles). He has a fantastic personality, is so well adjusted and took to his new home right away. This is all due to the fact that Kevin and Tina raise their pups in their home and make them part of their family, giving them all lots of love and attention from the beginning. He is already doing well with his potty training - pee pads right now until he completes his vaccines as we do not want him to go outside too much yet. We decided to rename him Oliver, which means “elf warrior” as he is truly fearless in his quest to explore his new surroundings.
Since we had never had a pup so young at 8 weeks, Kevin and Tina explained the shots still needed, gave us the detailed records of vaccinations already given and many other good tips for raising a young puppy. They are very detailed with puppy care tips and really love the breed.
This is why they are so particular with who will be purchasing one of their “extraordinary” puppies. If you are looking for a well-bred, AKC dachshund with good temperament and quality, then the only breeder you should consider to purchase your new pup is through Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!
Thank you and have a great day!

What an amazing dog we got from you guys. Its like he's always been with us. He started by using his pee pad and was eating and drinking last night. I got up with him 2 times the first night then he was ready to go back to sleep.
He's playing with his toys and napping. He's such as joy.
I just wanted to say thank you for all the care and pride you all are putting in these dogs. It shows in mine. He's just perfect!!! He's laid back, his coat is to die for, he's healthy and no bad habits so far.
Thank you for such a amazing baby we love him.

We began our search for a mini Dachshund after a traumatic injury was suffered. All the extra time at home opened the space in our hearts to welcome a fur baby. We searched many breeders trying to find the right one. When we came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund we found what we had searched for.
Originally, we had our eye set on a puppy that Kevin and Tina had already promised someone else. We maintained positive and about a week later they listed an adorable puppy. We acted as quick as we could to prevent missing another puppy. Kevin and Tina accepted my inquiry and began their consideration. Reflecting on it now I’m grateful for their thoroughness. I would be heartbroken to imagine my sweet boy in the care of a negligent person. After some time had passed we were approved and our excitement skyrocketed. We then began preparation for our puppy. Kevin and Tina were there to offer advice the whole time. We did have a 400 mile trip to get to him but it was well worth it. Give the breeders time to get your puppy ready and you won’t regret it. They brought our puppy to us smelling great and well groomed. It was evident he had been well cared for by them. They are fantastic and if looking for another mini Dachshund I would go back to no one but them.
Our puppy did begin to cry after we first got him into the car. It was expected as his world completely changed. He did not have any accidents on the trip home. However, upon entering the home he immediately began to poop and pee. We keep potty mats out for him but he doesn’t always make it to them. He also has a nibbling problem. lol Anything he can get his mouth onto he will. Truth be told if you are not prepared for these puppy tendencies get a cat or fish. Most puppies will be a great deal of work and require much attention. This is all outweighed during the moments they are relaxing and being well behaved. If you are sure a Miniature dachshund is what you need in your life look no farther than Kevin and Tina.
Thank you.

We happened to stumble across this web page and are so glad we did! We had been looking for a new family member for a while and we came across our Rosalie with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and had to immediately inquire. We instantly fell in love!
The Edwards family responded in a thorough and quick manner; you could really tell they take their time to try to get as good of a feel for a future home as possible. They were so polite and professional but also kind and just seemed like great people. We finally got our approval and drove from the coast to pick up our girl. She’s a beach bum now!
We spent some time talking with them and they explained everything in detail. We loved the personable touch, they didn’t just do a quick ‘in and get out’ process. We felt even better about our decision after pick up. The goodies bag was the sweetest touch and we are so very happy. A few hours after we left, they kept in touch to make sure we got home safely and everything was okay.
I would absolutely recommend this family to anyone looking to add a sweet dachshund to their home! We are thrilled with our decision.
Thank you Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!

Officially first night home with our new puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds! As I have never had a child, I don't know what it is like to have a baby, however I can imagine the feeling is similar to bringing a dog into your family. I adopted Corona from Cookie's Cream liter. She has brought nothing but joy (and a little sleeplessness at night) to my life already! From the moment I saw her wrapped in her little pink blanket, I loved her with all my heart.
Kevin and Tina are very thorough with who they decide to approve for their puppies, which shows they love and care for them very much. From how often we communicated, I felt extremely comfortable with purchasing a dog from them! We drove from Central Illinois to come get our pup, so trusting them was extremely important before making the 16 hour round trip drive. It was completely worth it for my little girl!
Upon pick up, they go over all of the puppy's medical records, what shots they have gotten and still need, and how they have been feeding them and potty training them so far. They have a little goodie bag with some toys, food, and other things to help with the new baby.
I am so amazed with my little girl, and I have Kevin and Tina to thank for that! Even after we picked up our little girl, they have been in communication to ensure a safe trip back. I am excited to keep in touch and let them know how my baby grows up!! Thank you Kevin and Tina!!

We adopted little Collin from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and are absolutely in puppy love. He is so sweet and cuddly, yet still ALL puppy. It is very easy to see that he had a wonderful first three months of life with Kevin and Tina. They were so helpful during the adoption process and continued to be there for us after we brought him home. It is easy to see that they truly care for each and every puppy as if it were their own child. We love little Collin to the moon and back, and look forward to many years of fun, love, and companionship with him. We are very grateful to Kevin and Tina and would highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds if you are looking for a sweet puppy to love.

Dear Kevin & Tina,
We’ve barely had Grace for 48 hours and we are so in love with her, our hearts are melting every time we look her or hold her. Perfect is not even the right for for her as she is more than that. Full of spunk and clearly with her own personality she will join cousin Elvis (Calep) this evening. We cannot wait to introduce them! I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for her and really again for both of them. As I mentioned to you on Saturday, Elvis, and now Grace, has brought so much love into our home that it is palpable. Your high standards for bringing into this world and raising healthy, happy, and beautiful animals I feel is so special. I appreciate your attention to detail at every step of the process, how you’ve kept in touch, and your clear dedication to placing your pups in good, safe homes with families that will love them all of their lives. I can assure you that is the case with us. We could not love them more.
Thank you again and we will be in touch soon.
Warmly.

We have purchased two puppies from the Edward’s now and could not be more happier! About a year and half ago one of our red short haired dachshunds passed away suddenly which left us devastated and yearning to fill the void. We began looking on line for reputable dachshund breeders and kept coming back to the Edward’s website. We were impressed with information that they provided on their site. Well we saw little “Colt” fka “Corbett” and just fell in love! We than began the screening process for adoption. I was happy that the Edward’s asked for specifics on what kind of home that the baby would be going into. It made us confident that they truly cared about what kind of home their babies are placed in. We drove 3 1/2 hours to pick up our new baby and couldn't be happier! Kevin went over all the information that we would need for our little man. I sat in the back seat and played and snuggled with him all the way home! He was such a sweet and curious puppy. It was obvious that the Edward’s spend a lot of time with their puppies getting them socialized and ready for their new homes. We had always had rescues in the past and had never brought a puppy that young into our home so was not quite sure what to expect. We are so glad we did. Everyone who comes into our home comments on how loving and calm Colt is. He is also highly intelligent. Our vet also can’t get over what “good stock” he is. He is a beautiful long haired fawn and tan doxie and it has been a joy to watch him grow. My husband called him the “Gerber Baby” of dachshunds! When Colt turned one, we began thinking it was time to get him a playmate. There was never a question about where to go. We always knew that we wanted another “Edward’s Extraordinary”! So one day I am on their website and see “Honey Dew” and fall in love all over again. I knew he would be Colt’s perfect playmate. We contacted the Edward’s and asked to adopt him. We took another journey back to the scenic Surgoinsville to pick up our new baby who we now call Blaser. He is so very precious and beautiful. He is a perfect short haired red with the sweetest personality! He likes to lay his head on my shoulder and cuddle. Colt loves him already. It was so good to see Kevin and Tina again and to tell them how much we have enjoyed Colt and what joy he has brought us. And now with little Blaser, we have a double portion! The Edward’s are not about “selling puppies”, they care about preserving good blood lines and the integrity of the breed. That is what is so impressive about Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds and that is why we would always go back to them for a miniature dachshund. They are the only dachshund breeder we would recommend.
Thanks again Kevin and Tina for sharing these little babies with families like us who are crazy about this breed!

We feel so fortunate to have found two loving and caring breeders to get our puppies from after losing the last dachshund we had. We fell in love at first sight and had to take both, even though we couldn't tell from the picture that Millie was truly a little bitty thing. She is tenacious and holds her own! They had told us that. Our Vet was really taken with how beautiful they are and perfect in every way. They truly help keep each other company.
We have had our two girls a little more than a month. They are so loving, curious and very smart little girls. They are adjusting to their lightweight collars, are LOVING running and playing in our fenced-in back yard. They have already both learned to come on command. Emmy Lou brings the little tennis ball back when it is thrown for lots of praise and good girl phrases. Millie is still working on bringing back the ball, even though she has done so twice.
They both use the bathroom on their pee pee pads and when they go outside with us they pee and poop with lots of praise.
They have a crate with no door on it and they love spending time in it as well as their bed and the warm blankets from the clothes dryer and music at bedtime.
They are just everything we could want in a dog that gives us unconditional love times 2!
We thank the Edwards for giving them such a great start in life and being excellent breeders and trainers.

We are so thrilled to have a new member of the family, Willy. Willy is black and white (piebald), we had never seen a dachshund with this pattern. The Edwards were great about educating us about Willy's colors and also everything else dachshund. They were great to work with. Meeting them was a pleasure after our long drive. They greeted us with smiles and of course our cute little puppy. The Edwards will require you answer many questions about the potential home of one of their babies but it is all in good will. They really care about the dogs and where they end up. It was reassuring to know we were dealing with great people. We could not be happier with our new puppy. He is potty training well, sleeping through the night and has such a fun personality that lights up our home.
I would recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone!
Thank you again.

We were proud owners of a Dachshund for 15 years. She passed away last year and we have never really been ready to get a replacement until recently. We spent a great deal of time looking for options in the Tennessee area. We finally decided on Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshund, because face it, we didn’t want just any Dachshund but an extraordinary one. We were impressed by their website. It was very clear and concise about requirements to own and purchase. It showed us that they won’t just adopt to anyone and this was important to us. We decided on one of the available puppies “Bretta” and emailed them about our intentions. There were several back and forth emails as they kept asking more questions about how we would raise her and what kind of home she would be in etc. Some might view this as excessive but we viewed as caring. When the agreement was made we hopped in the van and made the 3 ½ hour journey to their place. A beautiful home on top of a hill with a spectacular view. They were very pleasant people and you could shortly tell how important these puppies were to them. They were very detailed on how Bretta was cared for so that we could try to adapt her to our home as seamlessly as possible. They talked about how much their extended family grows each year as many of the customers keep in constant contact with them regarding the growth and life of the puppies they had adopted. You could tell this was a source of pride for them. Little details matter. We talked after we left and both commented on how clean things were there. Granted we didn’t see much of the house but we went through the garage and into the laundry room and it was one of the cleanest laundry rooms we had seen. Maybe it doesn’t seem like much to some, but to us it is details like this that tell us more about who we are doing business with. We have had Charlie Rose for just three days and she is an absolute joy and already running our house. The experience could not have been better. If you are looking to adopt a Dachshund, and care about the home in which they are born into, then you must consider Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. It’s not just the Dachshunds that are extraordinary, but the family as well.

We could not be happier with our little Gigi that we purchased from Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds. We lost our 13 year old Dachshund Ginger to cancer and looked everywhere for another baby to love. We happened upon Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds online and loved how much they care for their babies. We immediately got in touch with them and they responded very quickly. They were so kind and friendly to us and want all of their Dachshund babies to be placed in loving homes. I would recommend Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone and everyone. You will have the best experience with them and also a wonderful new addition to your family.

Love is often loosely proclaimed; however, not so with how we feel about our beautiful little Butter Bean (formerly named Kendall). We recently adopted Butter Bean from Kevin and Tina Edwards and it was love at first sight. He is a healthy little puppy blessed with a handsome bloodline and loving nature. He was very well adjusted when we received him, which indicates the exceptional care provided by Tina and Kevin. The Edwards were very thorough in making sure that Butter Bean would be adopted into a loving environment and we are very proud to be a part of the family of Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. Dachshunds are a special breed and we are so thankful for the "extraordinary" care given to breeding the finest and in securing the best for them as they move out into the world.

When we began considering a new pet after losing our beautiful longhair female we soon came across the Edwards website. While we visited many others, we kept coming back to this one. It was evident that they cared greatly for their dogs and were striving for health and quality. The site is most informative (we still visit for information and guidance). They are up front with their policies while presenting them in such a way as to project the fact that they care for their dogs as well as prospective owners. When we finally decided, we found the process to be exactly as they had described. The questioning was thorough and yet we fully understood their reasoning and were actually reassured by the process. The whole process went smoothly right up to the day we came for our beloved Kelby (we kept their name).
We were disappointed that we did not get to meet Tina (she was busy tending to a new litter), but Kevin was very gracious and accommodating. Our little boy has proven to be a real joy.
We are grateful for the Edwards's and the assuring way Kelby came into our lives.

After 2 years of debating on getting a dog we decided the timing was right and we were ready but the next question was okay what is next. After some research we felt like this was the place for us and after talking several times and getting approval we were excited. We have had Sadie (Bumbles) for 8 days now and it has been an incredible experience. We can tell she was well taken care of and is a happy puppy. This has been such a smooth transition and I couldn't ask for a better puppy. We were given great recommendations and advice and are very thankful to have met the Edwards.

After getting the chance to meet the Edwards and to pick up my special boy Gilroy which I have renamed "Toby" I knew that I had bought my dachshund from the right breeders. Kevin and Tina were both very welcoming and I'm glad that I had the opportunity to meet these great people! You can tell that these breeders are very professional. While emailing with the Edwards you can tell just how much they truly love there animals! I can't thank them enough for allowing me to bring "Toby" into my home! Everything went so smoothly and I would recommend these breeders to anyone that is looking for a Dachshund. Thank you all again!

This adoption process has been the most amazing process. I was hesitant when trying to find a dachshund breeder. I have always heard horror stories about puppy mills and such. After about 2 emails to the Edwards, I knew these people were just like me. 100 % Animal Lovers! They want every piece of background information they can get from you because they want to make sure their babies are going to a safe and loving home. This meant so much to me because it showed how much they cared. All of the information that I had to send did not bother me. I picked up Oliver (Sully) when he turned 8 weeks old. The following Monday I took him to the vet to start the 5way shot process etc. Everyone working in the vet’s office went crazy over him. They all said that they have never seen a cream dachshund. They all took him, and took pictures with him. Everyone at my work knows him on a first name basis. I think the whole city of Morristown has fell in love with this beautiful dog. My husband is amazed how smart this dog is. You can tell that the Edwards worked closely with the dogs to make sure they are loved and well trained. Oliver is just 8 weeks old, and knows how to use the puppy pad really well. My heart melts when I hold Oliver. You can tell he received lots of love from the Edwards because when he is held, he will lay on your shoulder just like a baby. They sent him home with a baby blanket that has the Edward’s scent on it and the litter mate’s scent. The detail that the Edwards put into each adoption is amazing. Oliver is so loving. He hasn’t met a stranger yet. He loves giving people kisses on the nose then he will crawl up on their shoulder. I admire this because my 10 year old dachshund is not a social butterfly. He doesn’t really like to be around anyone except me and my husband. I can already tell that Oliver is making him more sociable. They love playing with their squeaky toys together. I have cameras throughout the house, and they are already snuggling together when I am at work. This has been the most amazing process that I ever could go through. Oliver has brought so much joy to my life.

Hi Edwards ,
We renamed Hershey "Willie" and he is an absolute delight. He has the sweetest personality and is very attached to us. He was the one you said hadn't learned to get out from under your feet and he still likes to be touching whatever human family member he is with.
He is spoiled rotten and sleeps in the bed with us or my daughter every night. He loves to go to the lake and swims and retrieves a stick like his "brother Boonie" the chocolate lab, he looks like an otter swimming through the water.
He has done pretty well with potty training, and we are finally getting him to stop barking at strangers etc. He has never been aggressive or bitten any human or other animal which is wonderful (our other dachshund was a biter).
He is very smart and will bring his dish to us when he is hungry although he is not food aggressive at all.
You all have done a great job with your breeding because he is everything we were looking for in a dachshund. He has the great characteristics of his breed such as tenacity, loyalty, intelligence etc. but he is also very sweet and loves to be held and cuddled and is happy just being with his people.
If you ever need us as a reference we would recommend you 100% . He is a great dog and well loved and spoiled !
Thanks for doing a great job with your animals.

For years, I've been wanting a long hair miniature dachshund. Just recently, I decided to search the Internet and came upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. At first, I was a little skeptical with all the scams out there, but I began to read their website, and it is very detailed. They go into detail about their purchasing requirements. I also read their customer page which shares experiences from previous customers. I felt comfortable, so I began to look at all the puppies, and I fell in love with a chocolate and cream long hair mini dachshund named Brittnee.
I contacted Kevin and Tina through email that I was interested in Brittnee. I told them a little about myself per their request on their web page. They promptly emailed me back with more questions and wanted pictures of the living accommodations. I was very impressed, and this showed me that they truly cared where their babies were going. I received an email that I could make a deposit on Brittnee, and I was overjoyed. I stayed in contact through email until the day arrived that I could pickup my beautiful baby.
Finally, the time arrived, and we drove to the Edwards' home to pickup our baby. We were greeted by Kevin. When we walked into their home, Tina came in the room with our beautiful baby wrapped in a blanket, and my heart melted. She was more beautiful in person than the pictures I had been looking at. They were very thorough as they went over the paperwork with us. They gave us instructions and advice which was very helpful. They gave us a gift bag with a small bag of food and some toys. I thought it was very thoughtful that the blanket Brittnee was wrapped in had the litter mates' scent on it. This was another gesture that showed me how much Kevin and Tina truly love their babies.
Brittnee (now named Molly) has adjusted great in just a few days. She is so loving and sweet. She melts my heart with her kisses. She is doing excellent with potty training on the pee pads since the Edwards had already started this in their home. She has already brought us such joy in just a few days. We are head over heels in love!!
Kevin and Tina chose a very fitting name Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds because their babies are extraordinary in my opinion. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a miniature dachshund to look no more because you have found the perfect place! I look forward to keeping in contact with them.
Thank you Kevin and Tina, for all the love you give your extraordinary babies.

We just want to thank you again for all you did to have Trixie ready for us. It's obvious that you care so much about these little dogs' well being. Your process is an interesting one that was new to us. We've never before been interviewed and had requests for pictures of where the puppy would live etc. It is a wonderful idea and we encourage any puppy client you have to be patient and let you "do your thing" for the benefit of the dog. Also, you were so thorough with your instructions, paperwork, etc. plus beginning puppy potty training was a huge help. Trixie is very friendly and well socialized and seems to be at ease in her new home. We credit you with that.

We were very fortunate to be able to add another new baby boy to our household last weekend. We had previously purchased a very loving and beautiful 7-month old long hair girl, Mia, from Kevin and Tina 18 months ago. So when we suddenly lost our beloved 10-year-old corgi to cancer last month, we decided the best thing to do was to find another wonderful puppy to assist us in the healing process and to give Mia a playmate, so of course we thought of Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds!
We drove from our home in Alpharetta, Georgia to East Tennessee last weekend to the Edwards’ beautiful, scenic hometown to adopt our precious long hair white and chocolate 3-month old boy. He has been such a blessing and delight and has adjusted very well in only a week’s time! We are so in love with him. He has a special spot on our bed which he settles into each night and does not wake until our alarm goes off. He is extremely smart and has not had a potty accident in the house, as the Edwards’ start to potty train at a very early age with pee pads. This makes housebreaking much easier!
Kevin and Tina took their time with us to explain the purchasing contract, shot records, and basic new puppy care, so we felt very confident with taking home a 3 month old. Our second experience with the Edwards was just as fabulous as the first. They are truly very caring breeders. Their puppies are very well bred, socialized extremely well, and of the highest AKC quality. If you are looking for a wonderful mini-dachshund, Edwards’ Extraordinary Dachshunds is the only breeder you should consider.

Thank you both for being so easy to work with and being so responsive. I appreciate the questions you asked at the beginning to determine if our home would be a good fit. That means that you only want a good future for all of your puppies. I communicated with several breeders in TN and in Missouri and just didn't feel they were the right fit for me.
The moment I read your questions and email correspondence, I knew it would be a great fit. You provided helpful information on training and the ride home and it was perfect!! We couldn't ask for a better experience and we are beyond excited to have Bart as apart of our family now. I'm 100% sure that WHEN we are ready for #2, I will be reaching out to you guys and wouldn't think of going elsewhere.

Kevin and Tina are great breeders who love their dogs. They show nothing but concern for the puppies they raise. They may ask for a lot of information, but it is because they genuinely care where their baby will be going. We are so happy with our new pup! Thanks Kevin and Tina!

I first would like to thank Kevin and Tina for working with me to get the little man of my dreams. I highly recommend Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds for MANY reasons. One being the obvious dedication and compassion Kevin and Tina have for their babies and adult dogs. They truly make sure that their babies are going to be in loving homes in asking you any question that comes to their mind even after your preliminary application email but it all benefits you and your new best friend - I highly respected and loved this process while deeming the application process extremely important and professional knowing that before l got my baby boy, he was healthy, happy and taken care of. They won't let their babies go to anyone that won't give them even more love. Another reason is how easy Kevin and Tina are to work with. They have a quick response time between emails. This was my first doxie and I felt l could ask any question regarding not only my puppy but the dachshund breed as a whole. Above all, the main reason is the quality of their puppies. My baby boy is extremely handsome, silly, extremely observant, smart, and SO loving and affectionate. You can really tell they put time and love into their puppies for their motto is "quality not quantity" and the second you receive your puppy you can see the love in him. Thank you guys so much for Blingo. He already is our world and we love him so much.

Let me thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for being real life loving people who care about all the dogs they raise and place into forever homes! If not for them and my darling new puppy my heart would not know the unconditional love I now have from my little bundle of joy!
I'd like to tell our story of "Finding Miss Bris".
I had been searching the web to find the special little face, you know, the one you first see and it takes your breath away. Well, I found that beautiful little face on Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds web site. The Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website was very easy to navigate. When I opened their available long haired puppies page, I selected Haley’s Long Hair Puppies, low and behold there she was! Harley, a gorgeous little black & white piebald female, born January 5th to Haley and Boogie.
I sent my first email to contact the breeder with some skepticism surely and not entirely certain about trying to do something of this magnitude long distance.... not to mention everything we hear about all kinds of online scams these days. Kevin and Tina very promptly responded to my inquiry with reassurances to my concerns and various information in answer to my questions. One large concern was of course shipping across the U.S. from TN. to CA. They relayed to us that they had been shipping their babies for years, making certain that the pups are in a climate controlled environment. They were truly professional throughout the process, every step of the way. They ask for quite a bit of information and verification from the potential buyers regarding their lifestyles, the family home, environment & hours available to give to a new puppy, whether or not there are any siblings, etc. These questions are asked for good reason, they want to feel secure in the knowledge that they have gone above and beyond in order to better protect the well being of their babies. They want their new families to be responsible owners who will love and care for their baby as they would themselves. Once approved, we sent in the required deposit using PayPal. As we had never used PayPal before, I was pleasantly pleased to find it was very simple indeed. We were quite concerned about the shipping, and Kevin and Tina proposed the Delta “Dash” service which would expedite the travel, which we gladly paid the premium for because we didn’t want our new baby in transit any longer than absolutely necessary! She needed a little more time to be ready to fly, and they anticipated that she would be mentally and physically ready to fly. The morning of her scheduled flight as they were nearly to the airport they were notified that there would be a significant delay, and our baby would most likely miss her connecting flight -putting her in transit for way to many hours. They promptly turned around and took her back home! We of course, were immediately notified, although disappointed that we had a minor delay, but we did not want her in transit for that long either!! When our re-scheduled flight day arrived, we received the notification that everything was a GO! We were sent her arrangements, kennel tracking information and were provided with flight updates from Kevin and Tina faster than we were able to get them ourselves online. She arrived safe and sound, happily wagging her wee tail – glad to be released at last as we took her out of the kennel ….she is absolutely perfect!!! We can’t tell you with adequate words just how much we love our little Miss Bris! Thank you, Kevin and Tina Edwards, from the bottom of our hearts! We check in periodically to provide little updates on things like her vet visits, how she’s adjusting and just to let them know how much she is loved. They are always pleased to be sent pictures and little notes – we promise to always keep in touch. They are after all, related as her family!
Our experience with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds has been a pleasure, Kevin and Tina Edwards are really wonderful loving people, devoted to the very best in AKC Miniature Dachshunds!

First and foremost, I would like to thank Kevin and Tina for all of their help and support through the process. I had been searching for the perfect puppy for quite some time and things had fallen through with other breeders and it just wasn’t meant to be. I came across Edward’s Extraordinary Dachshunds one day while looking at puppies and I immediately fell in love with what would soon be my new love, Mandara (later renamed Ziggy.) Kevin and Tina were very careful and thorough with their screening, which showed me they truly love and care for each of their puppy’s future. They made sure to educate and remind me of the puppy care process and necessities as it has been a while since I’ve had a puppy.
Since we reside in Texas, we were having our Ziggy shipped to us. Which, to anyone would be very nerve-wrecking and worrisome. However, Kevin and Tina made me feel so very comforting knowing that they weren’t trying to get rid of her as soon as she was old enough to go. They took the time to wait for her to physically be able to handle the flight and took all precautions to guarantee her safety. That shows how much they truly love each of their babies. When we received our Ziggy, she was just as lively and loving as expected! She socialized smoothly with our other dog babies and they instantly became the best of friends. You can tell Kevin and Tina take pride in what they do, as they should. They have given us a FUREVER love and we couldn’t be more grateful. We look forward to a long and wonderful relationship with the Edwards.
Thank you so much, Kevin and Tina!

I had found the woman of my dreams and decided I wanted to make her mine forever. I had planned out the whole proposal and received her parents blessing but the only thing I was missing was the perfect puppy. I searched forever looking for a breeder that could give me what I wanted. After many days of looking and a few scams, I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Just by reading their page I knew this was a breeder with experience. I searched through all their beautiful pups that were available and found a beautiful chocolate and cream little girl and I knew she was the one. I contacted Kevin and Tina in hopes she was still available. I was amazed how quickly I received a reply. I answered all their questions they had for me and was able to put a deposit down. From there they worked with my schedule and set a pickup date. The morning of the proposal date my girlfriend's mother and I started our two and a half hour road trip down to East Tennessee. It was not hard to find thanks to the directions they provided. When we arrived Kevin welcomed us with open arms and invited us to come view the puppy. She was the most adorable thing I had ever seen. As I got to hold her Kevin went over valuable information that showed his love and knowledge for these pups. We were sent on our way with safe travels and all the essentials needed to get started with our new baby girl. Later that day I gave the love of my life the ring and the puppy. As her heart melted she said yes and agreed to start a family just the two of us and the beautiful little dachshund! We named the puppy Reese because of her gorgeous coat. She is full of personality and loves cuddles. Reese is the sweetest and most loving puppy and I truly believe this is because the way she was raised before we got her. I can not compliment Kevin and Tina enough. Their puppies are truly extraordinary in every way. They are not just breeders with puppies to sale they are a family with puppies included.
Thank you for being such a blessing and helping make this possible. You guys are great!

We began our search for a mini Dachshund after a traumatic injury was suffered. All the extra time at home opened the space in our hearts to welcome a fur baby. We searched many breeders trying to find the right one. When we came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund we found what we had searched for.
Originally, we had our eye set on a puppy that Kevin and Tina had already promised someone else. We maintained positive and about a week later they listed an adorable puppy. We acted as quick as we could to prevent missing another puppy. Kevin and Tina accepted my inquiry and began their consideration. Reflecting on it now I’m grateful for their thoroughness. I would be heartbroken to imagine my sweet boy in the care of a negligent person. After some time had passed we were approved and our excitement skyrocketed. We then began preparation for our puppy. Kevin and Tina were there to offer advice the whole time. We did have a 400 mile trip to get to him but it was well worth it. Give the breeders time to get your puppy ready and you won’t regret it. They brought our puppy to us smelling great and well groomed. It was evident he had been well cared for by them. They are fantastic and if looking for another mini Dachshund I would go back to no one but them.
Our puppy did begin to cry after we first got him into the car. It was expected as his world completely changed. He did not have any accidents on the trip home. However, upon entering the home he immediately began to poop and pee. We keep potty mats out for him but he doesn’t always make it to them. He also has a nibbling problem. Anything he can get his mouth onto he will. Truth be told if you are not prepared for these puppy tendencies get a cat or fish.
Most puppies will be a great deal of work and require much attention. This is all outweighed during the moments they are relaxing and being well behaved.
If you are sure a Miniature dachshund is what you need in your life look no farther than Kevin and Tina.
Thank you.

We have purchased four loving puppies from Kevin and Tina and have had excellent services from them. Their puppies are of the best quality according to our vet. Kevin and Tina are always there for us if we have any questions about our puppies. The puppies are well socialized and have not had any behavior issues or any physical problems. I highly recommend doing business with them because they do have Extraordinary Dachshunds! We love them!
Thanks Kevin and Tina for these loving dogs!

First of all we would like to thank you for our new baby Tucker. He has been a joy to us since we took him home. He bonded immediately with our first baby Nugs. He has adjusted well to his new house without problems. He is just a playful very energetic little boy. He had his first visit at the Vet and they absolutely loved him. They even took a picture of him to post in their face book page as their newest patient. Kevin and Tina we can't express how happy you have made our family for having 2 beautiful puppies (Nugs and Tucker) from you guys. When my daughter brought Nugs home to us 2 years ago, my husband and I fell in love with him. He has given us so much love and laughter in our lives. But of course he's the love of my daughters life. So we decided to have another puppy and I could not think of any other kind but a miniature dachshund from the Edwards. When we saw "Mannix" at your website we knew he was the one. We named him "Tucker". He is now our new baby boy. A great addition to our family. My husband and I are proud to have such beautiful puppies from the Edwards. To anyone out there who's looking for a puppy to become part of your family, we would highly recommend a miniature dachshund. Not just any miniature dachshund but the "Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund". Speaking from experience, we know that you will have a healthy, loving, very special, and precious puppy. Kevin and Tina are very experienced professional, thorough, and loving couple. They hand raise each and every puppy within their own home. We like that they update their website from the time you put your deposit until the time our puppies goes to their "forever home". We loved that they make sure for a smooth transition of the new puppy from their home to their forever home. They answered all our questions during pick up. They provided us a clear and concise guide on how to get to their house. They gave us a to go bag with new toys, a pee pad, and a blanket. They also provided us an up to date copy of their vaccines and some other useful information regarding our new puppy. We love that they encouraged us to call them if we have further questions. Proven by so many families including ours, "Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund" is well recommended with 5 stars. We love our boys so much and we are blessed to have them as part of our family.
Thank you Kevin and Tina. You're awesome.

For about a year, my wife and I searched for the most trustworthy and caring dachshund breeder. Our main concern, when searching for our dachshund, was knowing that the breeder truly cared about the future of the pet and the impact the future family would have on the life of the puppy. After reading many reviews and researching Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds, we quickly realized this was the place we wanted our little guy to come from.
The adoption process was thorough, but not overwhelming. We highly respect the love and attention the Edward's place on their dogs. They seem to do everything in their power to ensure a loving home.
We have a healthy and happy 3-month old dachshund boy now. We know much of his happiness comes from the early love and attention provided by Kevin and Tina. Thank you for providing us with our wonderful new family member that is loved dearly.
The Fink family - Kingsport, TN

We have now been lucky enough to adopt 2 beautiful pups from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our first puppy Penny was a Christmas surprise from my husband and she is a delight in every way! Her beautiful hazel eyes are the first thing everyone comments on. But her shiny red coat, spirited personality and intelligence are even more impressive! When it was time to add another pup to the pack, we knew exactly where to go. It was so much fun checking the website and seeing what was available. The greatest part of adopting another dog was not having to research tons of breeders to find what we wanted. We were so happy with The Edwards that we looked nowhere else! Our second pup Sadie is just as beautiful, happy and smart as her half-sister. Kevin and Tina do an amazing job at breeding absolutely wonderful dogs. We could not be any happier with our new family members! Thank you so much for blessing us with 2 of your pups.
Thanks again for the love.

We had a dachshund for 12 years before she died and knew we wanted another one, after searching many sites we found Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our experience with Kevin and Tina Edwards was wonderful. They are very through in their screening which was very comforting to know that they care so much about their babies. We had forgotten a lot about puppy care and they were very informative about what to do and expect from our new addition. Tana has adjusted fast and without any problems with separation anxiety to her new environment. She is a loving, playful and healthy bundle of joy. I would highly recommend obtaining a puppy from them. Thank you Kevin and Tina for making our lives more enjoyable by allowing us to be lucky enough to have one of your precious babies.
Sincerely

First of all I would like to thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for giving us the wonderful opportunity to adopt one of their precious puppies. The fact that they personally select the forever homes for their puppies really meant a lot to me. It showed me that they actually CARE about their babies and want to make sure they end up in good homes. Their website was really helpful and easy to navigate! They are very knowledgeable about the breed and provide a bunch of tips for both new and experienced dog owners.
Since we live in Miami, the thought of having a puppy flown out to us was somewhat stressful. Trust was definitely another factor to consider when buying a puppy online. The Edwards guided us through the entire process and answered all of our questions via email. When we finally received our baby (now named Odie) they sent us a follow-up email to make sure he had arrived safely. We couldn't be happier with our new puppy and plan to keep in touch with them as much as we can!
I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a happy, healthy, and well-loved dog!
Their dachshunds are truly extraordinary!

Kevin and Tina were an absolute delight to work with, and made the process of bringing our new family member home a total delight. They care about their puppies and it shows. Our new companion easily socialized with our current dogs and was a snuggle bug the moment we picked her up! If you are looking for a professional, quality, and caring breeder, look no further!

I highly recommend Edwards' Extraordinary Dachshunds to anyone is who looking for a healthy, beautiful, well-cared for dog. Our miniature dachshund puppy, Eddy, has brought such joy into our home. He is sweet and loving and an all-around bundle of fun. Eddy was an early Christmas gift for my girls and they are enjoying every minute with him! He is also making a wonderful playmate for our 3 year old terrier mix.
I was so impressed by the quality of care the Edwards's put into preparing Eddy to be healthy and well-adjusted and their conscientiousness about placing him in the right home. Be prepared to answer a lot of questions (this is all for your benefit!) and to have excellent information provided to you about what to expect and how to best care for your new family member.
This is our first dachshund and he has stolen our hearts! At some point in the future, we may decide we have room for another; when we do, there is no doubt about who we will call.
Many thanks to Kevin and Tina!

We fell in love with "Elise" when we saw her on the website. When I reached out to Kevin and Tina to inquire about her they wanted more information about our family and living conditions as well as how much experience we had taking care of a puppy. I love that they pre-screen potential new homes for their babies to make sure they are taken care of. "Elise" could not be a sweeter puppy. She is not only beautiful, but also very sweet and is training very easily. The next time we are ready to expand our family we will for sure be coming back to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds!
Thank you again.

I decided to begin my search for a puppy a few months back and settled on the Dachshund breed because of their playful and loyal personalities. After doing a lot of research on various breeders, I settled on Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds because of the care and commitment they provide to their litters. I'm extremely happy I did! Aside from coming from a loving homes, it's important to chose a breeder that begins working with the puppies from day one. It was a very easy transition. Luna immediately knew to go potty on the pee pee pad and rarely barks. I attribute this to Kevin and Tina working with her since birth. I'm very appreciative of them and their commitment to placing "Extraordinary" dachshunds into loving forever homes.

We are so thankful to have found you at the time we did! Winnie (formerly Colin) is doing great and he is a beautiful boy. We get comments on him from everyone everywhere we go and he is a people person who loves to socialize. The shipping process worked out perfectly and although we would've liked to pick him up, he did great coming to us and was comfortable in his new home very quickly. We couldn't have asked for a better experience with a breeder and we love our little guy!
Thanks for everything!

Thank you sooo much for being such awesome people!! I could tell in my emails with you that you really love your doxies and care about the homes and people you place them with. That meant a lot to me as I cherish my doxies and want to know that they started out in a loving and caring home. When I showed up ahead of schedule and called you wanting to pick up my puppy you went out of your way to try to accommodate me and make the process easy. The information and care you gave to me and my new puppy were outstanding – from the precious blanket with his litter mates’ scents on it to the puppy toys and nutrition information – you covered everything to make the transition smooth and painless. Nash has fit into our home so well and is so smart!! He already comes to his name and is full of joy and enthusiasm! He is a joy to have around. I also want to thank you for your commitment to raising quality, healthy dogs and insuring that they will be loved and well taken care of in their new homes.
Thanks again and God Bless you and Your Doxies!!

Our family would like to send thanks to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds after we got our little ball of fun, Burt, for Christmas. We snuck Burt into our home and surprised my step-mom for Christmas. The entire family was crying tears of joy after receiving this little puppy that has brought so much light into our lives. He is the funniest little guy and gets along greatly with our other dog who is a golden retriever (he also thinks he is her size)! So many people have asked where we got him, as he was raised in a beautiful home surrounded by people who truly cared about his well-being. He is hilarious, feisty, adventurous, determined, and above all- loving. We could not be more thankful that Burt was given the love, affection and attention that he needed when he was a young puppy by Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
Thank you all so, so much.

Our family thanks you from the bottom of our heart ! Little RINGO RHINEHEART (formerly twix) is the most beautiful , joyful, healthy, feisty, and loving little creature in the universe! I have had 5 rescue dogs and two rescue cats ,but known for years and years that I wanted to return to my childhood roots and once again have dachshunds in my life. My childhood family had four little doxies , but the last was 17 years ago. So thus , began the search.
Where do I find a reputable breeder? Where do I start? Can I trust the Internet?
Well the search was on and I quickly zeroed in on EDWARDS EXTRAORDINARY DACHSHUNDS !
After reading every word on your website Repeatedly and when I saw little Ringo's (Twix) picture, I knew I had found the best breeder and my future little pup !!! I so appreciated the extent and detail of your interview with potential adoptive parents , it confirmed to me that this was not just a business , it's a labor of love and that you truly care for every pup that you chaperone into the world , not only the pups , but their parents health and well being as well . I was greatly comforted knowing all of your dachshunds had free roam of your home and yard and that the pups were raised in a bedroom . I did my research and then you did yours! I can tell you that when you confirmed to me that my family was accepted to adopt little RINGO (twix)
I jumped up and down , cried , and let out a "yahoo" heard round the the world !!! My heart is so full !!! ❤️
I also haven't seen my husband Lou, giggle as he did when I brought little RINGO home! I put the little fella in his arms and Ringo immediately wagged his little tail, snuggled his neck and chewed on his chin !!
Thank you so much , Kevin and Tina !❤️

I have been so happy & pleased with my experience with Edwards' Extraordinary Dachshunds! My family bought 2 dachshunds, as a gift, for me, for all my presents this coming year. The Edwards couldn't have been more gracious & helpful in coordinating our experience, in adopting our new babies. I wanted a boy & a girl & they are just precious & beautiful! They held onto our little girl, a few weeks longer, so we could pick up our little puppies together. They even specially wrapped them in blankets with their litter scent on them for the long trip home. I couldn't be more pleased & the pups are healthy & happy now in their new home! I am in love with the new babies! Thanks so much for a wonderful experience in adoption. I was "vetted" thoroughly & questioned about my ability to care for these sweet babies, but that assured me that these people at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds care about their babies so much!
Thank you again for everything!

Words cannot express what a joy it was to add Elvis (Calep) to our family this past week. First, and above all, I want to thank you for your thorough application procedure and your communication. Your attention to detail about Elvis’ early days and care so clearly showed how much love he was brought into the world with and how much you truly care and love what you do. Elvis is absolutely beautiful, kind - natured, sooooooooo sweet — he managed the very long car ride with barely a sound. He used his pads immediately. We are absolutely in love with him. I couldn’t be more grateful for starting our relationship with a new puppy in this way. We are learning and he will be a part of our family forever. We will keep in touch!!!
Thank you!!

First and foremost we are so happy to have another puppy from you. We provided Sunny a forever home about 1.5 yrs. ago and she has been such a blessing ever since. She has a personality of no other. Our son has written many projects for
school on her temperament. She is very precious to us. Approximately 6 months ago our oldest
dog passed away after battling diabetes and cushions disease. After mourning her loss we thought of no other breeder than Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. Our first experience was so pleasant we did not hesitate to contact you again. The information you ask for first time buyers and the questions you have about our home life, other pets, size of fenced yard, etc. demonstrated for us that you are not just any breeder you are a loving and compassionate family that want to place puppies in caring forever loving homes.
When we contacted you to see if our Sunny's mother was going into heat you offered as much information as you could and informed us you also had her grandmother. You kept in contact and did not become angry or inpatient with our many emails
and calls for follow up information. When we chose Cole now Willis once again you went above and beyond to keep on contact with us.
Both Sunny and Willis have soft gentle personalities. They are very playful and being matt (pee pad) trained when we got them was an extra bonus.
Please share our information with anyone who would like references as we will only buy from you as long as you are in this business.
Thank you again.

I was searching the internet for a highly certified dachshund breeder, and came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. I immediately fell in love and wanted to purchase all the puppies on their website. My first dachshund passed away a little over a year ago and I wasn't certain I was ready for another puppy. After six months of looking at there website everyday, I decided it was time. I recently purchased a short hair red dachshund, now named Louie, from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
The experience working with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds was amazing from start to finish.
The communication was prompt and very thorough. I knew right away the first time I emailed Kevin and Tina to put a deposit on Louie, the requirements and questions they asked, proved to me they genuinely care for their litters and the future of their well being. Louie has been with me now for one week and it's been the best week of my life. He has a sweet personality and totally wants to love on you. I am extremely satisfied with Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds and will highly recommend them to anyone. I know with the quality of the litter and the experience that I had, my next puppy will be from Tina and Kevin Edwards. I look forward to the many years to share with Louie and
I'm so grateful for Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.

I would like to start by saying that if you're looking for a quality breeder, you have found one at Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. We have purchased from them twice. We got our first baby, Max (Redman) from them last year. And then our second baby, Bella (Brita), we got this year. Max is now 15 months old and Bella is 4 months old. They are both doing great and are very healthy and full of life. I'm so glad I found their website. I was hesitant at first to purchase online, but after talking with the Edwards' I could tell how much they really care for their pups. They are very concerned about where these little guys go to their new forever home. They always answer any questions and concerns and always return calls and emails. So thanks to the Edwards' we have two very healthy Dachshunds that bring us so much joy to our lives.
Thanks again Kevin and Tina.

Last year our beloved Murphy, a long-haired black and tan dachshund passed away. Murphy had been with me for more than 13 years and was very much a part of my family. He was my dog, but my children and husband adored him. Murphy's loss left a huge void. We would talk about how much we missed Murphy and I knew I wanted/needed another dog in my life. But not just any dog would do. I wanted another long-haired dachshund, preferably a miniature.
I started my search about two months ago. The internet sites I looked at were mainly pretty generic and I didn't find any that felt right. Then I came across Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds website and knew I found the place I wanted to get my next pet from. I read their purchase requirements, checked out the pictures and the litters, and kept coming back to a beautiful male long-haired pup, Alex. I looked some more at other sites but kept coming back to look at him. I was falling in love.
I contacted Kevin and Tina about purchasing Alex (we call him Odat). They were so gracious and yet very careful. They truly care with whom the pups and dogs are placed. I was happy to share what they wanted to know about how Odat's day would be spent, who he would be with, what his living environment would be like, and other important things like who would provide veterinary care. The things that are important to me for him are also important to them. This is a true testament that Kevin and Tina are not just breeding for profits; they are breeding for their love of the animals.
Kevin and Tina didn't know me and were cautious. Considering the number of dogs that have to be rescued each year, you can't help but admire their inquiries. They approved me and we ! proceeded with the steps to adopt Odat. I picked him up a few days later. Kevin and Tina emailed me to make sure Odat was okay on the three hour drive home. They also have followed up to make sure he's adjusting well to our home . This isn't because they believe we lack in caring for him - its because they love him.
Odat has had a wonderful start in life under the care of Kevin and Tina. And I know he'll be bring joy, laughter and love to our family. In fact, he already is.

Our family has been loving owners of a beautiful black and white piebald (Bruza) and a blue piebald (Coco). We have always wanted to add a chocolate piebald to our family. We had recently lost our Bruza and we were just devastated by his sudden loss. Looking online and searching for a chocolate pie led us to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. As soon as I saw Laker's (we call him Luigi) sweet little face and gentle eyes we knew we wanted him to be a part of our family. I contacted Kevin and Tina and as with all of my inquiries, a response was quick to follow! They kept us updated with his progress throughout the process. Any questions we had were quickly answered. The day he was shipped to us the weather was bad and his flight was delayed and they kept in touch with us the entire day until we confirmed Luigi was in our possession!
From the moment he arrived from the airport he was sweet, cuddly and very well adjusted. His tail never stopped wagging! He was never nervous or scared. He fit right in and adjusted to his new surroundings almost immediately! Potty training was extremely quick and easy! He is very smart and has been easy to train. He is incredibly friendly and EVERYONE loves him! And he loves everyone! What a beautiful temperament.
Having never met Kevin and Tina and only corresponding through emails, I have to say it was a wonderful, easy experience. They are very professional, caring breeders.
Thank you so much for allowing us to give Luigi a forever home! He has been a true joy!

I had heard great things about Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds and had seen one of their sweet, well-tempered dogs in person before I had even decided to adopt a puppy. So, when I decided to find my own little one, this is the first place I looked. The transaction was smooth, and it was comforting to see how much they wanted to see one of their own go to a good home. I welcomed any and all questions about my home life and the time I was going to be able to commit to a puppy.
Knox, previously Jordan, has brought me so much joy and lighthearted fun. I am a full time student, and it is so exciting to see my sweet boy happy and ready to play after a long day of class. He is the perfect study buddy and loves to snuggle right next to me. Knox is so playful and loves his big brother, Sushi (another wonderful example from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds). He is growing so much every day! At only 12 weeks old, he is starting to recognize his name and beginnings of a few commands!
I am so thankful for the Edward's family and their love of raising quality, sweet-tempered dachshunds. They were sweet for choosing me to be Knox's loving parent. I don't know what I would do without him now.

We had been searching for reputable breeders for some time before we finally found Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. There is no doubt in our minds that we found the best Dachshund breeders out there in Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds. They definitely live up to their word about breeding for quality.
When we saw our puppy we were sold. It takes more than just being willing to buy one of these Dachshunds. They actually care where their babies go. They, like us treat their pets like family. Before deciding on a forever family for their puppies they took the time to find out who we were. What our routine was, how many members are in our family, and basically any questions to ensure you are a responsible and loving pet owner. We were more than happy to provide any information to assist in the selection process. It was a give and take process. We wanted the best breeders and they wanted the best family for their baby. We both got what we wanted.
We are beyond privileged to have been chosen as Balina's (now named Piper Bean Sitorius) forever family.
She has exceeded every expectation we had. Her temperament is amazingly calm, loving, extremely affectionate, and playful. She is only 10 weeks old and already well socialized and well on her way to being potty trained thanks to their dedication. She is absolutely beautiful inside and out. We are beyond blessed to have her as part of our family.
If you are looking for a Dachshund, look no further.
Sincerely,
The Sitorius Family - Newport, RI

We picked up Pickles (Joslin) on a Friday evening just after she turned 8 weeks old and she has been a joy from the start. We were very skeptical about conducting this type of business over the Internet, but the transaction went as smoothly as could be expected. The Edwards’ have been a pleasure to work with. All emails have been answered quickly and we couldn’t have had a better experience. I appreciate the fact that the Edwards’ are knowledgeable about the dachshund breed and was able to give us much appreciated information on the day we picked her up. It was a surprise to find the number of gifts inside the bag we were given with her on pick up day. The blanket and packet of food was a huge help. Since it had been 20 years since we had a pet in our home and had never purchased a pure bred from a breeder, it was a wonderful surprise to find out that Kevin and Tina wanted to know something about the forever home one of their puppies would be going to. This told me that it wasn’t simply about the money….they truly love these little puppies and want to know they are going to be with a family that will love and care for them. It has only taken a couple of days for Pickles to show that she is feeling very comfortable in our home. She plays, jumps, runs and rolls around a good part of the day and is doing very well in house training. She has the sweetest disposition and has taken up with every member of my family. I look forward to many years of the unconditional love you can only get from a fur baby. I would certainly recommend Kevin and Tina for anyone who is looking for a beautiful dachshund.

"I was looking for a pure bred mini dachshund from a reliable, responsible and personable breeder, and found that in Kevin and Tina Edwards. Kevin and Tina have achieved excellence in breeding these beautiful dogs and were very professional from day one. Their website is comprehensive in the process of purchase and standards that they live up to and expect in a forever home which made things very efficient in the puppy search. They worked with me in my excessively busy schedule to meet for picking up my new pup and offered a very professional transaction and gave a gift bag out of courtesy for caring for my new pup in the first days. They not only gave me a pup in perfect health and looks but gave me very good advice and written directions on getting through the first and toughest weeks with my new pup. I will certainly pursue their service for any future mini's I may add to my home.

I would like to thank Kevin and Tina Edwards for breeding the most beautiful and mellow dachshund. I have worked with a few breeders and none were as through and thoughtful as they are. They care deeply for their pups, I was basically interviewed before I could purchase our little girl Rowynn (previously Sandielu). They requested not only information but pictures of our home inside and out and our yard. That is awesome !!!. They sent pictures and emailed with up to date times of arrival when she was flown in. Rowynn came in a nice crate with blankets with her litter mates scent and a nice clean one taped to the top and a sample package of food. My only regret is not getting to meet Kevin and Tina in person (Tenn is on my bucket list). We have the best tempered most beautiful mini doxie in the world.
Thank you so much, the joy you have brought to our home is irreplaceable.

I have been so grateful for my new puppy. Marlo has been such a joy to have already. As a new puppy owner, it has been great to get all the advice and help from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds that I could. Before I decided on them, I looked around at others, and felt so comfortable with their selective process that I new it would be the perfect fit! I would recommend them to anyone who is interested in a dachshund! Thanks for my fur baby!!

"The Edwards have been a joy to do business with. My wife and I got our first pup from them back in 2013 and he has grown into the most handsome and loving dog. Parker is a chocolate & cream long hair that is super laid back and very healthy. He gets compliments everywhere we go. We recently got another pup from them to keep Parker company while we are away at work. So far things have been going great. The new pup is also beautiful and we are looking forward to seeing him grow.
We decided to head out to get our new pup and meet the Edwards at their property in East Tennessee. I do believe they will meet you if requested but we just couldn’t wait. The drive from Nashville is beautiful and it’s amazing how fast the trip goes with the excitement of getting your new dog. Once there, they will invite you inside where you will be greeted by your new pup. You go over some paper work and everything you need to know about getting your new dog properly inoculated. Then your on your way, the whole process is quick and simple. "

My wife and I were very fortunate to stumble upon Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds. The process of adoption has demonstrated the time and care that is put into each and every puppy. We really appreciated all the information we received concerning the past and future health of our new family member. They are very knowledgeable of their breed and are very professional. We also appreciated their interest in who and where the puppy is going to and what kind of environment they will be living in. They provided us with a goodie bag with toys and helpful items as well as a food sample. Overall we are extremely satisfied and highly recommend Edwards.

We had thought about finding a miniature long haired dachshund for about a year as a companion to our small corgi after the loss last year of our other 12 year old corgi from cancer. We started the search last month and were immediately drawn to Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds’ website. They have such an wonderful selection of all colors and patterns and are very caring breeders. All of their puppies are socialized early, raised in their home and never caged. We saw a picture of “Christa” from one of their recent litters and it was love at first sight! Her markings were truly beautiful – chocolate with a pattern consisting of piebald and brindle. We quickly called Kevin and put a deposit down as she was the only one left in the litter for purchase. The next weekend, we drove from Atlanta to Kevin and Tina’s beautiful small farm in Eastern Tennessee. When we arrived, Kevin was holding our puppy and she was even more beautiful and sweet in person than her picture indicated! The purchasing process went very smoothly. Kevin and Tina are very professional and have been breeding quality AKC dachshunds since 2006. Our puppy has adapted very quickly to our home and is a loving member of our family. We highly recommend purchasing a puppy from Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds.
They truly are extraordinary!

I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for everything you did to prepare Belle for her forever home! I also wanted to thank you for being so patient with me and answering all of my questions. I know I had a bunch! Belle is an amazing puppy! It is obvious to me that you guys spent lots of time with her! She is very, very friendly and loves cuddling!!! She is also very good with my two kids and my dachshund I already had at home. She was also very familiar with using a potty pad! We have had very few accidents since bringing her home. That's amazing! We took Belle to the vet 2 days after we got her and she was given a clean bill of health! I know I made the right choice when choosing to get a puppy from Edwards extraordinary dachshunds! I would drive 12 hours all over again because Belle was definitely worth it!
Thanks again,

We just want to take a few moments to thank Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds for our wonderful puppy Bo.
From the first call to Kevin and Tina we knew we were dealing with a responsible, caring breeder. He explained their breeding practices, care of their puppies, how we were to care for our new puppy, shipping arrangements and any other questions we had. Thorough doesn't describe how detailed Kevin was throughout the entire process.
Emory was shipped to us from Tennessee to New York with all his up to date vaccines, a little puppy "care package" and all his paperwork. We had a very difficult travel day as we had bad storms and Emory's flight was delayed for many hours. Kevin was by his email the entire night (until 3 a.m.) to ensure Emory arrived safely. We knew that Emory came from a very loving home.
We have had "Bo" here with us for 4 days and he is a dream. He has such a wonderful temperament and was wee wee pad trained when he arrived! He loves to snuggle, sleep in his new dog bed and play with leaves. He's a happy, playful pup!
Bo had his first veterinary appointment today and as we figured is in great health. He was up to date with all his shots and deworming. The veterinarian said he's a very healthy puppy!
We cannot thank Edward's Extraordinary Dachshunds and Kevin and Tina enough. Bo is a wonderful addition to our family, our children love him to pieces as do we!
Sincerely,

When we received our doxin from Kevin and Tina we were very pleased. We researched many breeders before finding ones that we were comfortable with. Maddie is very well adjusted and took to us immediately, with no signs of separation anxiety. Maddie has a great demeanor and is very easy going. She is not a nervous or frightened dog, even initially, as is sometimes the case with small breeds. We are amazed at how well she does with other people, cats, and dogs. She was obviously well socialized as a pup. She has a great personality and is quite intelligent. Also, she truly is very beautiful!! She is a joy to have in our lives. Thanks to Kevin and Tina

Wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for my entire experience with your family and my pup Penley. Pen just turned 1 and he brings our family joy every day. Our experience was a leap of faith ,we fell in love online and Pen arrived by plane. Kevin is the most patient and professional man! He answered all my questions and multiple e-mails. Kevin also kept in contact with me by text the whole time Pen was in the air and he arrived right on time. I have 2 other doxies whom I love very much but the difference in the quality of breeding is evident. I would say to anyone who comes to your website and falls in love with a pup from far away do not hesitate what you see on the web is exactly what you get and you will never have a moment of regret. Thank you Edwards Extraordinary Dachshunds you sure do live up to your name ,your pups are extraordinary in every way !
This dog is not only beautiful but smart personal and conformationally correct the result of very careful and responsible breeding. Most importantly it was very clear that this pup was loved! He was never timid even after a scary plane ride and potty training was a breeze. Thank you soo much Edwards family for this priceless addition to my family.

I was looking very hard to find a rescue doxie that would work well with my two dogs last year when I found out from a coworker that her son had bought a beautiful doxie which they renamed Maybelle, from the Edwards family. I looked on their website trying to find a piebald/dapple long haired female and emailed them to let them know that was what I was interested in and that when one became available to please let me know. Within a couple of days Kevin emailed me back to tell me that a deal had fell through and that one was available. Interestingly enough while looking at her picture I fell in love with a different puppy, my beloved Ella which I named Ella Belle. I asked if they could fly Ella into Tampa and of course she came to us a few weeks later all packed with goodies and comfortable in her kennel. My family was happy and complete!! Well almost! Until this year when I got the urge to get another doxie pup. Of course, this time I found him as soon as I saw him. His name was Pelton, which we renamed Charming, to go along with the Disney theme of Princesses and Princes. This time my daughter and husband made the trip up to Tennessee and brought Charming back to his forever home! Now, our wiener family is complete!
Everything from start to finish with the Edwards was top notch. There were absolutely no problems with communication, honesty, and the quality of the puppies. They were well trained to pee pads and were just wonderfully happy when they came into their new home. I think that sometime in the near future there will be another Edwards Extraordinary Dachshund heading to our home as my daughter is so in love with Ella that when she decides to move out on her own she wants a doxie just like Ella Belle! I guess she will be making another trip to Tennessee!
