🐾 Top 10 Ways to Raise a Perfect Dachshund

Smart Tips for Loyal Little Legends

1. Start Early with Socializing

Expose your pup to people, dogs, sounds, and smells from day one. A well-socialized Doxie is a confident, loving companion — not a barker behind a couch.

2. Feed for Health, Not Just Happiness

Choose high-protein, low-filler foods. Watch their weight. Dachshunds are prone to back issues. Healthy food = happy spine.

3. Train Like a Pro — But Make It Fun

Use short, rewarding training sessions. Doxies are smart and stubborn. Keep it playful, not punishing.

4. Protect That Long Back

No jumping from couches. Use ramps or carry them down gently. Avoid rough stairs. Their long spine needs care.

5. Daily Walks Are Non-Negotiable

Even small dogs need motion. Walk your dachshund every day to burn energy and stay trim.

6. Crate Train Early

A cozy crate becomes a safe zone. Use it for quiet time, not punishment. It helps with housebreaking, too.

7. Dental Care = Long Life

Brush weekly. Give chew toys that help clean teeth. Dental neglect leads to pricey vet visits.

8. Don’t Skip Vet Checkups

Annual visits matter. Keep up with vaccines, flea prevention, and dental checks. Prevention saves lives.

9. Love the Bark, Manage the Bark

Doxies alert naturally. Use training to teach when it’s time to be quiet — and when it’s OK to sound off.

10. Give Them a Job

Dachshunds were born to hunt. Hide treats. Play scent games. Keep that little nose and brain working.
