Wandering Man's idea is great. I've seen it used for larger dogs and this might be a way to provide play but without you having to do it. You'd have to teach your dog to put the ball back in though. Probably not that hard since your dog seems to like fetch already.

Have you tried puzzle toys where he has to figure out a puzzle to get to the treat. That might help him.

Mine are Dachshunds Labradors Doberman

I think this is a very good song about your dog, well done!

So my girls have had this bed as well as a towel and it seems that they get very bored when they try to dig in the bed. They have started to figure out the stuffing is not going to come out and the bed is not going to rip open. I will update farther down the road to see how long it lasts, but so...

I'd heard that this happened, but never actually read a story about it. This scares me a little bit, but I would choose to just drill a hole in the other end. Maybe if this is shared enough Kong will change their toys.

Sure. I bought mine at amazon. Here is the link Amazon.com : MidWest Maxx Bed, 35 by 24-Inch, Black : Pet Beds : Pet Supplies

Me too. And once the stuffing is out, boy is it a mess. Mine scatter it to the moon and beyond. Thanks for turning me to this bed.

I will have to order one of these beds with a couple cheap blankets. It sounds like I may have found the answer to my prayers. My oldest turns 8 in the spring so know how old yours is make me feel much better that they will like it. See I don't understand they destroy beds, but not blankets...

I found the bed your referring to, but it doesn't seem thick enough for my older dachshund. I typically get thicker bed so she is more comfortable. About how thick is it? Can it be dried in a drier? Does the inside material move around when washed? Sorry for all the questions its been heck...

So even though I try to get my girls nice things, like expensive bed to sleep on in there play pen. Instead of a crate, I put them in a upside down play pen for dogs so my oldest does not have to climb over anything with her back. But to my dismay while trying to arrange the fluff in the bed...

Yes, very. In fact I adopted my two wonderful ladies from the Adopt-a-Pet in Victoria. I also have family there, my mother's cousin.

It just helps them keep those sensitive areas cleaner. They don't shave the area just trim the hair shorter. My long hair won't go potty in the rain if her hair is trimmed there because it gets wet and is very uncomfortable for her. Any groomer can explain it better than I can. On another...

I have a 7 year old smooth long hair mini dachshund. I have some questions. Does she have a sanitary clip (hair trimmed around her bottom and underside)? Have you tried using treats as an incentive? Have you tried using an umbrella to help her get used to it?

Welcome, just looking around the forums will help you with the do's and don'ts of dachshund ownership. If you have any questions just start a thread and someone will answer it.
