Hey there! So, I'm buying myself a smooth coated miniature daschund in the next month or so. Can you pleas tell me more information about them? If you could also tell me about what to do on the first night with the puppy, cause i hear they cry a lot the first few nights? Anyways, explain their personalities, how they act like. How do they mostly like, you know, what do they do on a daily basis? Are they funny, mean, anything. Just swarm me with information of anykind of the miniature daschund breed. Thanks ;)


Answer
Please please please let the pup stay with it's mother and siblings, ideally until 13 weeks, do not bring the pup home sooner than 8 weeks. Puppies miss out on important life lessons, like bite inhibition, from their siblings and mother.

To learn more about the dachshund, visit the Dachshund Club of America website http://www.dachshund-dca.org. Also, do pick up the book Dachshunds for Dummies, it is quite good, despite it's title.

You do not want the pup to sleep in your bed, borrow a very small crate from someone, put some old towels in there. The crate should be in your room, next to your bed. The learning to be in a crate, will be a big help in housebreaking.

When you know your bringing your pup home, the first thing you need to do is take the pup to your vet. This should be within a couple of days of having the pup, just to make sure he's healthy. Many states have a Puppy Lemon Law, to protect people from being sold sick puppies. When you take your pup to the vet for this "wellness" vet visit, she will discuss with you the vaccination schedule. Do discuss with her that some Miniature Dachshunds have a reaction to vaccines. You should ask the breeder if any of the dogs she breed has had a vaccine reaction.

Try to get the pup into a routine. You need to feed it 3 small meals a day. Do not feed to much or the pup will get diareahh. You will have to get up in the middle of the night to potty the puppy. If the pup has trouble getting back to sleep, cover the crate with a towel.

Remember, that little puppies are pooping and peeing machines. It amazes me how much water can come out of that little body. So just be prepared.

All dogs have their own personalitites. I own Standard Wirehair Dachshunds. Dachshunds were bred as hunting dogs, so they have a lot of energy. They will gladly kill squirrels, mice, rats and anything else they can get their teeth on. They can be stubborn and indepenent thinkers, they can also be over-protective of their people, home, food, toys, etc. Do not tolerate bad behavior, it will only escalate. You need to be a fair but firm owner.

As for the back. Hopefully, the breeder your getting your pup from is responsible and had not had any dogs go down and if she did, bred away from the problem as best she could. However, this can happen in well-bred dogs and poorly bred dogs, the problem is poly genetic. They do not break their backs, IVDD has to do with the spinal Disc. It is very important that you do not allow your dachshund to get fat and out of shape. Your dachshund should be fit and firm. Lots of exercise, hiking, swiming,

So far, I've had 3 dachshunds, all very different in personality. My first Standard Wire female, was very sweet (she was a rescue) but not hte brightest lightbulb in the box, however, she could unsnap, unzip, unbutton anything if there was hope of getting a piece of food. She once dragged a delivery of a 20 pound box of dog food at least 15 feet, ate through the cardboard box, then ate thru the bag until she got to the kibble. She lived to be 17, passed last year.

I have a 4 yo male Standard Wire. He's very serious and a real mommy's boy. He will do anything I ask him, he's very smart, has been very easy to train, he's very agile and there's nothing he can't do. He is stand-offish with strangers. He does agility, obedience, field, breed and does actual hunting, all successfully. He well play fetch until his feet fall off or until a squirrel crosses his path.

I also have a 5 month old female Standard Wire, is a love bug and a real social butterfly. She loves the world. She's very smart, I housebroke her quite easily, but she has more of an independent streak than my male. She's not so interested in fetch, but likes to play tug with fuzzy furry toys. Today, she discovered the squirrels go up trees.

Whether or not a dachshund or any breed or mix become mean, depends not only on the breeding, but also on you. It's important that you socialize socialize socialize your pup with lots of people and really nice stable dogs. When your pup is old enough, find a good Puppy obedience class and enroll. The instructors will teach you to train your puppy some very basic but important commands, games to play and can give housebreaking advice and can help with any other problems you may be having.

What is the cost when having a litter goes wrong?




Katslookup


Do you know what it entails and how much it costs when a litter goes wrong?

For example, when the b1tch needs a c-section. What do you have to do and how much does it cost? Do you know what you would have to do if she died? Are you willing to loose your dog like this?

How about if the litter is early? Bottle feeding or inserting a feeding tube? How about the several vet visits to examine the puppies to determine if their hearts and lungs are developing properly?

What happens when you havev done everything you can and the puppy (or puppies) die anyway? How about if you have puppies that no one wants because they are sickly? What if a puppy doesn't fit in its new home, are you able to take it back?

Are you willing to accept that your puppies may end up in a pound and be put down? Do you understand the costs involve in avoiding this? Are you willing to pay them?

Do you REALLY understand the costs and are you willing to accept them?



Answer
Unfortunately most folks have no idea of the potential risks and costs (both $$ and emotional risks).

Over the years Ive had very good luck, much better than many I know but here are a few examples of some of the costs.

Even breeding a healthy litter and having a normal uneventful delivery can can a few thousand dollars if you do it right. A litter I bred back in '93 using fresh chilled semen cost me over $3,000 by the time I finished paying for the semen, shipping, tests to determine the right time for the breeding, etc. The end result was a litter of 8 pups (7m, 1f) and one the only female passed away when she was less than 24 hrs old. Very disappointing given I had bred the litter planning on keeping a female for myself. On the other hand it was a very nice litter 4 of the pups finished their Championships.

On the other hand there is the cost of the litters that just don't produce anything. With one female afte
