Helpful Dog Behaviour
Training Advice



Dog behaviour training is best handled by starting early with your puppy, developing good habits when dogs are easier to train, and establishing yourself as the leader.


Everyone wants their dachshund to be well behaved and socially accepted but this can take some thought, planning and effort on your behalf.

It helps if you are calm, firm, have routines, and you do not regularly behave loudly and erratically,which may over excite your dog.


Start dog behaviour training early using Patience, Praise and Persistence, if you prefer attend obedience training to help get off to a good start.

This is annoying to you and your neighbors, why is your dog making all that noise, what is the problem. You need to check what is happening in your dog’s day is your dachshund bored, lonely, fearful or attention seeking.
