what our clients say
Dear Cedar Valley Bassets, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for bringing Milo into our lives. We had been talking about getting a Basset for years, but after losing our old dog last winter, we weren’t sure we were ready. Then we saw Milo’s photo, those big soulful eyes, and somehow we just knew. From your first reply to our visit, you made everything so calm and reassuring no pressure, just honesty and warmth. Milo has fit right into our family. He’s gentle with the kids, loves curling up by the fireplace, and even made friends with our cat (which we didn’t think was possible!). He’s the sweetest soul, and you can tell he came from a place full of love and care. We talk about you often because we know the kind of heart it takes to raise a puppy this special.

I can’t even begin to describe how much Rosie has changed my life. I live alone and work long days as a teacher, and coming home to her wagging tail is the best part of my day. From the first night, she slept soundly beside the couch like she’d always been here no fear, no stress, just trust. What really stood out was how patient and honest you were before I brought her home. Every question I had, every tiny worry, you took the time to explain. That kind of care isn’t common anymore. Rosie is my little companion, my joy, and honestly the best decision I’ve ever made.

Bringing Daisy home was one of the most heartwarming experiences we’ve had as a family. The kids were so excited, counting down the days on a paper calendar. When we finally arrived at your place, it felt like walking into a home, not a kennel. Everything was clean, peaceful, and full of happy dogs. From day one, Daisy has been gentle, affectionate, and full of personality. She naps beside our baby’s crib, follows our daughter around like a big sister, and loves every person she meets. She’s not just a pet she’s family. We talk about you often because it’s clear your love and patience shaped her into the perfect little soul she is.
The Parkers – About Daisy
wasn’t planning on getting another dog, but when I saw Sadie’s picture, something inside me just lit up. My husband had passed a few months before, and the quiet in the house was unbearable. The moment I met her, I knew I wasn’t meant to be alone. Sadie has brought laughter and warmth back into my home. She has this calm presence she’ll lay her head on my lap when I read or follow me on my walks like she understands I need company. I tell everyone about you because I know Sadie came from a place of real care. She healed a part of my heart I didn’t think would ever feel whole again.

We drove all the way from Illinois to pick up Winston, and not once did we question the decision. Every update, every little photo you sent while we waited made us feel like we were already part of his story. By the time we met him, he came running right into our arms like he knew exactly who we were. He’s goofy, smart, and so affectionate the kind of dog who makes you smile every single day. Our vet couldn’t stop commenting on how healthy and confident he was. It’s clear that he was raised with love, patience, and time. Winstonisn’t just a great dog; he’s proof that when breeding is done right, you can feel it in the animal’s soul.

Benny came into our lives right when we needed him most. My husband had been through a tough year, and we wanted something to lift the mood at home. From the moment we picked him up, his little tail never stopped wagging. You could tell he was loved and well-socialized from day one. He’s clumsy, funny, and so sweet. He greets every guest like they’re old friends and insists on sleeping under our blanket every night. Thank you for raising such a happy, healthy pup he’s brought so much light into our home.
Anna M., Colorado – About Benny
We had researched breeders for months before finding you, and the difference was obvious from the start. Your transparency, the regular updates, the photos it all made us feel so confident. When Cooper arrived, he was already leash-trained, confident, and so gentle with our toddlers. He’s been the easiest puppy we’ve ever had, and our vet said he’s “textbook healthy.” We can’t thank you enough for the effort you put into every single pup. Cooper is pure joy in a long-eared, droopy-eyed package.
The Johnsons – About Cooper
I’ve never met a more affectionate little soul than Lola. She’s become my emotional support animal without even trying. She senses when I’m stressed and curls up right beside me until I calm down. Everything about the process with you felt professional yet personal no rush, no gimmicks. You cared about where she was going, and that meant a lot. I tell everyone about Cedar Valley because you can feel the difference in these dogs they come from love.

We picked Otis up just before Christmas, and it was the best gift we could’ve given our kids. He’s silly, lazy in the mornings, and loves car rides. Every day, our 8-year-old reads to him after school, and he listens like he understands every word. Our vet said he’s one of the calmest pups she’s ever seen for his age. That’s all thanks to how you raise them patient, structured, and full of affection. He’s our family’s heartbeat.
The Harris Family, Texas – About Otis
We had almost given up on finding a reputable breeder until we found you. So many places felt rushed or impersonal, but you were kind and informative from the first message. When Charlie came home, it felt like he’d always been part of our little family. He’s our hiking buddy, couch napper, and morning alarm clock. He has that perfect basset mix of stubbornness and charm that keeps us laughing. We recommend you to everyone because finding an honest, caring breeder is rare and you’re the real thing.

Ruby is my little shadow. From the moment she stepped into my apartment, she’s followed me everywhere even to the bathroom! She’s playful, affectionate, and already knows all the neighbors. The best part was how supportive you were even after she came home. You checked in, gave me tips, and made sure she adjusted well. That kind of care means everything. She’s not just a pet she’s family, and it’s clear she came from people who love what they do
Natalie H., Florida – About Ruby
We can’t say enough about Beau. We live on a small farm in Kansas, and he fits right in. He’s surprisingly brave for a basset chases the chickens (gently), plays with our kids, and insists on riding in the tractor with my husband. Everywhere we go, people stop to ask where we got him. He’s that handsome and well-behaved. You can tell he was raised with attention and socialization from the start. Cedar Valley truly sets the standard.
The Andersons – About Beau
I’ve owned dogs my whole life, but none like Hazel. She’s gentle, patient, and has this calming energy that fills my home. When my elderly father visits, she sits quietly by his chair and lays her head on his foot like she knows he needs comfort. The whole process with you was so smooth and transparent. From video calls to care tips, I felt supported every step. You can tell your dogs come from love, not business.
Grace L., Maine – About Hazel
We were nervous about buying a puppy online, but after talking to you and seeing how thorough you were, all our worries disappeared. Duke arrived healthy, playful, and confident no sign of stress or fear at all. He’s obsessed with beach walks and gets compliments everywhere we go. You’ve set the bar so high for what a responsible breeder should be. Thank you for doing it right and with heart.
The Whitmans, California – About Duke
I’d been saving for months to get a puppy, and I’m so glad I waited for Bailey. She’s the most affectionate little thing. Every morning she greets me like I’ve been gone for days, even if it’s just been a few minutes. You made the process feel so personal no pushiness, just genuine care for your dogs and the families they go to. Baileymakes my small apartment feel like a home.
Michelle T., New York – About Bailey
We’ve had Scout for six months now, and he’s grown into the sweetest, most well-behaved boy. He loves our kids, the neighbors, and even our mailman. Everyone who meets him says the same thing “He’s such a good dog.” That’s no accident. You can see the difference in how he was raised. The love and patience you put into every puppy shows in their temperament. We couldn’t be happier.
16. The Martins – About Scout
Moose was our “empty nest” puppy after our last child went off to college, and he filled the quiet house with joy again. He’s hilarious, drools on everything, and insists on sitting right on our feet no matter where we are. From the first phone call, we knew you were different patient, transparent, and clearly passionate. Thank you for giving us a healthy, happy companion who feels like a piece of home.

We wanted a calm, gentle dog to grow up alongside our newborn, and Honey has been perfect. She’s protective, patient, and so loving. She’ll sit quietly beside the crib and wag her tail when the baby wakes up. The transition was seamless thanks to your guidance and training tips. We truly feel like we got the best start possible with Honey
About Honey
Theo has such a big personality for such a short dog! He’s funny, curious, and loves everyone he meets. He brings joy everywhere he goes. Your updates and care instructions before pickup made everything stress-free. You didn’t just send us a puppy you gave us a new family member.
Julia P., North Carolina – About Theo
We wanted a companion for our aging lab, and Abby has brought youth and happiness back into our home. She follows him everywhere, plays gently, and keeps him moving. You were honest, kind, and thorough from start to finish. We never felt like just another buyer we felt like family.
The Reynolds Family – About Abby
Buster has become my best friend. I’m a truck driver, and he rides with me everywhere. He’s calm on long trips, greets everyone at gas stations, and sleeps like a champ in the passenger seat. You raised him right no anxiety, no aggression, just love. People ask where I got him all the time, and I always tell them about Cedar Valley.
