    Fear of doggy stairs

    As you have always lifted her on the bed she probably thinks she is not allowed on the bed unless you lift her on. Her whining was probably her asking your permission to get on the bed and when you got out and lifted her up your actions said to her "OK then, you CAN come up" You could try two...

    Starting aggression toward son :( Help Please!

    Just another quick point. If I were you I would stop making excuses for the "mouthing" I know he is a cute puppy but believe me he is a lot cuter than you think. You wouldn't tolerate your children biting you when they were teething and he really is no different. His mum would have definitely...

    Starting aggression toward son :( Help Please!

    I think there is a possibility it could be fear aggression. What I would suggest is to try to build the relationship between your son and the pup to help re-establish the pecking order at home. For e.g. make sure it is your son who puts the dogs feed bowl down every day for a few weeks, tell...

    Neuter/Spay Coat

    Is he otherwise well in himself? been wormed recently? I'm only asking as their health can really affect their coats. Might just be worth getting him checked out as he should be shedding his coat with the temp rising. 90 degrees, ooohh I am so jealous!! lol!

    Puppy Size

    Coco is beautiful. I too have never seen a Chocolate dapple standard so he is indeed going to be very unique! My guess is that there could have been a mistake mating between a standard and a mini, very frowned upon in the UK! She may have lied about the mum because of embarrassment about the...

    Neuter/Spay Coat

    I haven't used a stripping knife, but are you sure that isn't just his winter coat? They all get a thicker / woollier coat in the winter that will naturally shed in the spring. Oooh and congratulations re the job!!

    Puppy Size

    He does seem quite large and his legs look very long for a mini and. At sixteen weeks he is certainly going to continue to grow for a while but this will slow down. We don't have tweenies in the UK so my guess is he will be a standard. He looks a good weight for his size though so he is...

    Yard Sale Doxie

    So glad you have this little guy, he sounds like a real character. The thing about dachshunds is they really aren't like other dogs, they can be mega clever, they do really like to please but only if they want too lol! Because they are so clever they really need mental exercise as well as...

    Pregnancy Week by Week

    Am I understanding right that you don't let people choose their puppy? I have never heard of that here. I just don't understand how you can take deposits when you don't know what you will get. What if you have all girls and three people have given you money for boys?? Personally I wouldn't...

    Just need to let it out

    When bad things happen we can spend hours trying to figure out why so we can make some sort of sense of the tragedy. But the truth is we cannot and will not ever be able to prevent many of these very sad events, bad things just happen and often to good people. It sounds as though you loved your...

    Pregnancy Week by Week

    Many breeders have contracts here in the UK, but they usually only cover things like breeding and restricting the new owner from selling puppy on etc. When I have had puppies in the past I keep people on a waiting list until the pups are born but don't take a deposit until they have seen the...

    Registering Puppies

    Hi every one, I was just wondering if you could help me with some research I am doing. The KC in the UK are currently allowing the multiple registration of pedigree puppies from the same bitch in less than twelve months (at every season). The maximum registrations they will allow is four...

    Dachshund Meet

    There are a few UK face book pages that organise dachshund walks, I had to miss the last one but can't wait to take my three! Funny how dachshunds like other dachshunds, there is nothing quite like the sight of a pack in full force lol!
