Long time, no...um...see :) Figured an update was in order on my Jasper. He is now almost 9 months old! His long hair is starting to fill out beautifully, his flag is fanning out...its exciting! He still hasn't learned what (or who) does and doesn't need barked at. Not much to be done there I...

Hey all! For me summer=too busy for much so I thought I would pop in and update you on the handsome little guy that all of you helped me raise lol The day he came home.... Today at 6 months old Sent from my LG-E980 using Tapatalk

Need some serious help with this one...I have no idea what to do. I have 3 kids, the oldest being 12 and the youngest is 7. As a recap we got Jasper at about 10 weeks old. He has been great, no signs of aggression toward anyone or anything. He is now about 17 weeks old, and is starting to show...

Anyone have any good links/tips for leash training? I thought we were doing pretty well without any training since when he is on-leash he was staying right with me no problem, but lately he has gotten "stubborn" and while he doesn't try to run around ahead of me and such, his single focus...

Hey there Dachshund Pros! At what point will I be able to tell if Jasper is a mini or standard (or somewhere in between... )? For my own personal knowledge, since I don't plan on trying to show him in any way. Facts: Mom and litter were rescues. Unknown age on mom. She was 9.5lbs at the time...

At what point/how do you teach them to tell you when they need to go potty? Jasper has done really well wight me being on top of taking him outside, but there are still plenty of random times that he will be just walking round, no real indicators, and have himself a squat right wherever he...

How do you get a pup to play anything other than tug? Jasper has no interest whatsoever in chasing a tossed ball (or balls, period) or any tossed toy at all. Has no interest in tiny hide the coveted object type games... He is instantly "out of sight out of mind". He is either sleeping...

Had to share... Saw a bib at the store that I couldnt pass up! I have been enjoying the soft rabbit harness my mom gave me that works great for him, so thought I would make one of my own! Sent via tapatalk

I have realized I have been calling Jasper a black and tan. His mom was a black and tan, as we're his litter mates. I just thought his tan was "lighter" than the rest. I don't know a lot about colors and genetics.. .. Learning. Anyhow I realized I have never seen a pic of a black and tan so...

My Furbaby Jasper LOVES soft toys of any kind that contain squeakers (kong bear is his favorite) random kidnapped socks, and sticks (or anything that resembles them... Which he can't have because he eats them.. Suggestions on a safe substitute are welcome lol). What does your furbaby LOVE...

We have been diligently working on potty training. No puppy pads at all, keeping an eye on him, frequent outside trips. He has now taking to wetting his beds. He has 3 different beds, all of which he wet yesterday evening, at different times. Just a bit ago we were playing, and he ran over and...

I love this puppy so very much...I am frustrated SO badly with night time and potty issues. I KNOW it's rough at first, I have read it is. So rather than lay out my whole long past 3 day story, let me ask some questions. 1) Free access to water or no? I have read both ways, but it seems...

So, my ten week old neutered little man started humping a stuffed dog last night... And then got ahold of my hand this morning... What's up with that?? Isnt he too young, and he is fixed! Sent via tapatalk

First of all let me be very clear that I am NOT looking into this option for the purpose of letting Jasper outside alone. Period. I have already read too many horror stories about dogs getting mauled by strays that can cross those boundaries. NOT gonna happen here. The only reason I looked in to...

Hi there! My 8 week old comes home this week, and I know potty training should start right away, but is there a "too soon" to start other types of training? Like obedience, or agility? I don't want to miff things up or confuse him by starting too soon. The only other dog I have personally...

Hi there! This is my first time on the forum, and I posted to introduce myself earlier but wanted to post on here specifically since it is a puppy that is coming home. Next week (hopefully) we will be bringing home a new baby boy! They have named him Jasper, and his mother and littermates are...

Brand new and saying hello! Our baby isn't home yet, but hopefully in the next week! He is from a litter of puppy mill rescues, and we couldn't be more excited to get him home! On here to learn all I can!
