    Play something besides tug??

    He certainly sounds an energetic little fellow! I would start some training in earnest before he gets too big for his boots lol! Training can be fun / play too and the dogs love it. Start when you know he is hungry and have a handful of treats. Oh and make sure there are NO pull toys on...

    Hi from Florida!!!

    He sounds lovely Karen. What is a "reverse" dapple, we have dapples here but I haven't heard of this? Getting a new dachshund baby is almost the most exciting thing in the world, they are all little characters who give you years of fun and love. Your life will never be the same.....but you...

    Pseudo Pregnancy

    Pleased to say Connie is much better. In the end I did take her to another vet for a second opinion and he too said he had never seen such a bad phantom pregnancy. I cant believe how quickly this got so bad but the good thing is that now the antibiotics have kicked in the swelling seems to be...

    Challenge: Doxie Doesn't Mind Going Potty in Her Crate

    Agree with JPsMUM if the crate has been used as a punishment in the past she probably has a fear of being shut in that causes the anxiety that makes her "go". A lot of people leave their dogs shut in crates these days but I am sorry I just don't get it, we have spent years trying to campaign...

    Dachshund Brain Games!

    There is an app on the ipad for dogs lol! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/game-for-dogs/id527119448?mt Haven't tried it but some of the reviews are good. Mostly I prefer the hunting / searching and training games, if it has food involved mine are always interested!

    Dachshund health problem question

    I am in the UK and don't know much about "nutro" but would definitely do some more research into the food as this sounds like a nutrient deficiency to me. That would also explain the excessive hunger and the loss of coat / condition. Personally I am not a fan of dried food at all, it seems...

    Brand new & super excited!

    Judy, it is probably best to go back to your original post, where I have asked for more info. Sometimes it does take a while to get a reply but it gets really confusing if you post the same question on multiple threads. I am sure everyone will offer help and advice if you can let us know exactly...

    Pseudo Pregnancy

    Feeling a bit better today as the antibiotics seem to have at last kicked in and the swelling is staring to go down. She also seems a bit brighter in herself but worryingly has developed a cough. Another visit to the vets today and they have extended the antibiotics. Poor thing I feel so sorry...
