About Us

Raymond Helmuth

Breeder and Owner

" I unexpectedly ended up with a dachshund. I had no idea that this dog would convert me - now and forever convincing me that they are absolutely outstanding, amazing dogs. I am a horse trainer, and realized that my dog was and genuinely wanted to be my best friend, companion, and partner, all while working around and with the horses (as well as other animals on the farm)."

Michaela Keener

Administrative Coordinator

Michaela met Ray and Kate at a horse show in 2019, and left with an Ava puppy and followed suit by joining the team from a far. Michaela maintains the website, and responds to emails and social media inquiries. In 2022, Michaela added a Zoey puppy to her family (pictured here with Zoey). 

"I picked up Nimbus and he melted into me. These dogs have the biggest personality for small dogs that I have ever met. At the end of the day, they are so loyal and loving, I couldn't ask for better dogs" - Michaela
