After losing our 17 year old girl Samantha back in June we decided to get another Dachshund. She is a red smooth standard even though by the pictures you would not know it, she looks more like a black and tan but she will be dark red when she is an adult. Say hello to Brandy.
You have any pictures of the parents? I have not been a fan of the bridles, but would like to see how they look. I like red smooth. It is unreal how you can not find a red smooth standard or mini. I keep telling myself it is because the time is not right and it is not meant to be. I guess...
Dachshunds are very very very (did I mention very)protective of their owners. It is very normal for them to react in this way to stangers in my opinion. Even though we don't like this reaction it is not out of the ordinary for this breed. It is normal for most people to want to come right up and...
This is 100% right. It is the breed and how they are. Ours was 17 when she left us and she was always there. Always! I would not of had it anyother way.
Beautiful dog. Can I ask....Are you only going to use the "potty pads" with her or are you working on taking her outside too? I know you are going to be in a college dorm and the outside part may be difficult while on campus, that is why I ask. Hopefully she gets to go outside to take care of...
First I want to say... I saw some pictures that you posted of your new puppy. Very nice! Looks very similar to our Dachshund that we just lost after 17 years and 3 months. I attached a picture of her when she was a pup.
When we got our girl, Samantha she slept with us from day one and continued...
Like garyd I waited a long time (11 years) before getting another Dachshund so I agree you are lucky to have other Dachsunds already. Like I said I just lost mine of 17 years and I am torn about getting another. 17 years flew by and I don't feel like going through this all again. It is tough for...
Yes definitely post some pictures please. What is she, miniature, standard, red, black/tan, black, dapple, piebald, smooth, long hair, wire hair. Which one?
I lost my girl, Samantha, 2 months ago to the day at almost this time. My wife took her in. I just could not go. She was my girl. My whole life actually. She was 17 years and 3 weeks old. Born 5/13/96, died 6/3/13. She was a tough tough dog. She was deaf for probably 3-1/2 years. Almost blind...
That was the first thing I noticed that I did not like.....The other breeds mixed breeds. I would never buy a Dachshund with out A)Seeing the parents, B)seeing where and how they are raised, and C)without test info. Thanks for the reply.
