How Old is Dr. Watson

If that's not The most cutest thing I've seen

It's a great question to ask. often Dachshunds have a general, no fear type attitude even in the face of injury. It's not suggested nor good for them to jump off furniture, beds, chairs more than there body length. is it hard on there backs "absolutely" and the effects are not always...

Same here, Bad habits makes for bad training.

I thought I would upload some of my pictures of Kai Von since I rescued him on New Years eve. and few pictures of Kai and Khloe together. He loves to sleep upside down like this. when it comes to bed time its tuff. Khloe is under the covers and Kai is on top of the Covers. Makes turning...

Nope you doing just fine. Its just the breed. Your lucky your chiweenie side of the gene pool is moving things along. full breed dachshund can take up to a year (give or take)

Welcome to the forum, 1st what kind or brand are you feeding your puppy? Are you feeding the puppy the adult dog food or puppy food? 2nd when you are feeding him how much are you giving him per day?

Yes Dachshunds can be quite the little digger. I don't allow mine to dig, however I can't watch there little butts all the time. Keeping there nails trimmed or short will help some. As a final note to Dachshund potty training. They are tuff to break and potty train. It can take up to...

I agree, I also see way to many Dachshunds overweight. And I'm guilty of this too. My Doxies sit up and as cute as it may be its really hard on there backs. Matthew Plummer {Kansas City, Mo.}

DeafDogs, Thank you I didn't elaborate on that subject.

I think thats great. A month may be to long if you little boy is adapting well. Move the adjustment period along if you can. Will make the adjustment easier for him and you won't have to deal with any "needy" problems later as he matures. And your quite welcome. We are always here to...

just another suggestion. Might want to consider "Play barking" Might be sending mixed messages and encouraging the barking. No means no with no expections. Growling and little yipes not so bad. Your little boy needs to understand whats allowed and what't not. So just food for thought...

Good, happy to hear it. Remember give us some pictures. Its's what we live for. :) Matthew Plummer {Kansas City, Mo.}
