    A Day at the Local Dog Park

    Great pictures! Glad you two had fun.

    A One-person dog?

    We thought we would only own one dog when we got PD. By the time he was a few months old we realized we needed a second dog because he was becoming too attached to us, especially me. I couldn't walk across the room without having PD grab my pants leg. That's why we got Henry. Henry helped...

    Hello

    Oh my! I am so sorry. We get so attached to our dogs, it really hurts when they get hurt. Prayers for you and your dachshund.

    First puppy walk!

    Well they don't, do they? I take Frank to the hair dresser's twice a month to die his red fur white. How often do you take Bree?

    Hiding from a Hound?

    After locking ourselves out of the house and having to bother our elderly neighbor for our emergency key, we finally decided to get something we could hide in the yard. And there it remained buried for a couple of years. Our two dachshunds, Henry and PD left it alone. Shortly after we got...

    First puppy walk!

    People really do seem to notice dachshunds. And through in a color other than red or Black and Tan, and you have people stopping you in the street, and asking to take your dog off your hands. Sounds like you two had fun!

    Thoughts on Formal Training?

    We did the PetSmart training for PD and Henry when they were pups. The trainer actually trained us, and we trained the dogs. So, if your worried about your consistency, be prepared. Because it is still going to be all about you. The main thing the classes did, that you don't get in a...

    Have a question?

    My dogs would eat themselves to death if we let them decide when and how much to eat. They get 1/3 cup for breakfast and 1/3 cup for dinner. PD is a twice a day pooper. Henry was a one-a-day, and we haven't really figured out Frank, yet. PD is also an excited pooper. He'll go when he's...

    Hi, we are new!

    Does that include the humans, too? :eek: Welcome to the forum.

    Potty training question-Please help

    We got PD at 5 weeks, and started him off on paper. I was able to take him to work, so we (wife and I) were able to take him outside every two hours and praise him. While he was very young, we kept the pads around the house in specific places. When he started missing the Pee pad we stopped...

    Potty training question-Please help

    Our first two dachshunds trained quickly. Frank, the most recent addition to our family, however, has been difficult. But, he was 2 when we got him, and we have been really lazy about teaching him to go outside. We rely heavily on our doggy door, and that may be why he is still a little...

    9 week old mini dach

    A second dachshund? We finally had to get a second dog. PD was becoming too clingy and a bit neurotic. The second dog really helped.

    Jax's new bed :)

    It looks great. And it looks like a lot of hard work. I can't help but think of all the stuffing we have spread throughout the house right now. Frank seems to see an intact bed as a challenge. He has torn his way through three of them so far. I hope Jax enjoys his bed the way you intend.

    How Did You Find The Site?

    OK, I had to do that twice. The first time, the Google search took me to a site where I could by enhancement pills from from the sex pill guru. :( I figured that was not what Doxmom thought was "cute." So I tried it again. I got to the google list for dachshund forums the second time.

    Hello from Oregon

    Welcome to the forum. Our two year old dachshund, Frank, is pretty fearless too. All of his jumping is supervised. He jumps, and we watch in horror with our mouths open as he flies onto and off of our laps, furniture, and trees. :eek: Supervision doesn't seem to matter to him...

    Adjusting dogs (and their human) to night shift?

    Sounds like you've developed a pretty good plan. Nightshift? She should be fine for most of that, sleeping while your working. 12 hours is a little long, though. Having someone come in once or twice while your gone would help. Although, you've got to have some mighty good friends to...

    I think I'll stay away from Bully Sticks, now that I've read what they are made of. :eek: Knine Kountry: Bully Sticks Poor Bulls.

    Need some advice please.

    PD is a submissive pee'er. He quit peeing with us pretty quickly, and no longer pees when I lean over to pet him. Anyone who drops by frequently can bend over and pet him with no problems. When an infrequent visitor drops by, however, it is water works if they bend over to pet him. If...
