    How do Doxies React when being Flown Overseas?

    I have a friend here in the US that will be moving to Europe. She is very stressed about flying her Doxie over seas not knowing how it will affect him. She has the opportunity to adopt another Doxie and is not sure if she should add another Doxie to her clan at this moment because of the...

    Adopt or Foster to Save a Dachshund

    If you are looking for a new addition to your family, won’t you consider saving a rescued Dachshund? Please visit Furever Dachshund Rescue and view the available Dachshunds. If you’re not looking for a permanent addition to your household, won’t you consider fostering a Dachshund?

    Assistance Needed

    I am dismayed over the large population of Dachshunds that are daily surrendered to shelters. I was also naive over the amount of them that are either abandoned or taken from a neglect/abusive situation. These sensitive babies, or any other dog for that matter, just do not deserve to be in any...

    Territorial Issue

    The book I’ve ordered “Click to Calm: Healing the Aggressive Dog” hasn’t arrived yet, so this forum is the only resource I have when it comes to behavioral issues. Below is quoted from an email I received… What advice can I pass along to this foster mom in trying to heal Missy?

    Aggressive Bitting

    Sara, thank you so very much for helping us through this. You are indeed a lifesaver from afar! Robin, the foster mom of Zane, has taken your advice and is now hand-feeding Zane. She employed the suggestion to take his toys and put them up yesterday after they got home from my house. Zane...

    Aggressive Bitting

    I had the privilege of meeting Zane yesterday. He came into my house totting one of his toys. One thing I observed about him is that he is obsessed with his toy. His foster mom informed me that he has many toys and all he does is play with them instead of interacting with people or other...

    Aggressive Bitting

    You have confirmed my suspicions in this particular case. I could see a pattern about his behavior in a setting with other dogs verses his setting without other canine companions. I've been very concerned about adding to his insecurities by shuffling him around so much. I was struggling on...

    Aggressive Bitting

    I’ve been approached about a problem with a 5 year old male Dachshund named Zane that is currently being fostered in a home with many other dogs. He was neutered through the rescue. His original family had him since he was a pup and when they surrendered him they said it was because they...
