I've been really buckling down with Nola's heel work, and this is what we have so far. It's not totally where I want it yet (I want her a little closer and her turning needs work, but her focus is stellar), but I'm happy with it. We have a Rally trial in March, but if I can find a trial before...

Hi, all! It's been a while. :D I'm searching for a carrier for Nola to use when I travel. I'm taking her to the north east for 2 weeks next fall, and want a way to carry her in crowded places so she doesn't get stepped on (it's happened before:mad:). I'll also use it when I take her with my to...

What does everyone do for dental care with their Doxies? I've been brushing Nola's teeth since she was 12 weeks old, and they're in stellar shape.:D No tatar, no staining, no inflammation, no redness, no bad breath. She'll be 3 in Oct., but has the teeth of a 1 year old. These were taken...

Hi y'all, haven't been on here in a while! I've missed it here. I have a question for you all. Okay, so I was contacted by the company Ruffwear about doing a review of one of their harnesses (and a leash). I said sure! They're send the WebMaster harness is XXsmall (Ruffwear Web Masterâ„¢ -...

I've heard some really conflicting info on supplements for Doxie backs, which ones work or are worth it, ect. Which ones do you think are worth it? Even if it's not 100% certain that it will help, which would you recommend?

I just had to show off this speedy recall Nola did. :D She is so incredible with it, and absolutely flawless off leash. Who said Dachshunds can't be trained?:rolleyes: Dachshund Nola: Recall - YouTube

Do y'all travel with your Doxies? Nola's been on every trip and vacation with me since I got her two years ago. She's a fantastic co-piolet:p, not to mention the perfect size to travel with. Since she earned her Canine Good Citizen, it's been even easier to find places to stay with her...

I made this new video for Nola's YouTube channel intro, and I'd like y'all opinions! Channel Introduction! - YouTube

I see so many dogs, Dachshunds in particular, that are overweight (if not down right obese). It saddens me that people gasp and say my girl, Nola, is too thin, when they're walking a dog who's belly is on the ground. So I decided to create this thread where we can all share pictures of our fit...

It's been a long time since I've been on here (booked a few clients for my new photography business, lots of training with Nola, moderating another dog forum, tending to my little farm), but I'm back now and happy about it! Lets see, what to update on? Well, Nola will be two and a half next...

So it's not the finished product as I still have to remove the yogurt lid she's targeting, but here's Nola learning to shut a door!:) Dachshund Nola's Training Series: Shutting a door - YouTube

Took Nola to the beach a few days ago to go for a run and work on some training. Sit, down, sit/stay, down/stay come, up, off, touch, spin, leave it, wave, high five, paw and side (basically a heel on my right side). At distances, on funny surfaces (water, sand, rock), high distractions, off...

Here's the video of Nola's more advanced trick training. You'll see me use both hand and verbal cues. Dachshund Nola: Advanced Trick Training (clicker training!) - YouTube

I've been working hard with Nola, and I've trained her a several complex behavioral chains in addition to single cues this month. I've taught her: Up onto a stool, verbal and hand signal Up onto a stool, with me at a distance giving the cue (we've gotten to about 15ft) Off a stool, verbal and...

Nola, age two, passed her AKC Canine Good Citizen!

What color do you think my girl is? Her mother was a clear red and her father was a wildboar. Nola's reg. as a wildboar. However, she doesn't have the typical wildboar look about her. No tan points. Each of her hairs (expect the ones on her face and legs) is red at the base and black at the...

My beautiful Nola

I'm seriously considering taking the Canine Good Citizen test with Nola next month. My only hesitation is "supervised separation". While she doesn't have separation anxiety, she's very attached to me and I'm not sure how'd she'd do when left with a stranger. Can anyone give me advice on this? Or...

It's Nola's second birthday (tomorrow, but I'll be busy so I thought I'd post today:))! She's been incredible! She's so smart and knows so many commands and tricks, and is the light of my life. Here she is then and now

Just curious to see how much everyone's pups weight. Nola is 8lbs, 9ozs and two years old
