I'm hoping for a new camera lens...:p

Beautiful boy! I love the dapple. Here's Nola at 3 months and at 2 years:)

Does she need to go out to potty?

Sara's advice is spot on. Check out Kikopup and Tab289 on YouTube, they both have incredible videos on training and behavior. They're who I've use to teach Nola. Nola's reactive (barking like mad, lunging) to garbage trucks (no idea why) and umbrellas. What was the distraction portion of her...

I agree with Steph. I LOVE Kikopup on YouTube, and use a lot of her training methods with Nola. This video is how I dealt with Nola's SA: How to train your dog to be left alone- clicker training - YouTube And here's her one on house training (I just read your other thread). Congrats on your...

Aw, thanks!:) She's a red sable (people say sable's only in longhairs, but the AKC standard says smooths can be sable too so I'm going with that;)).

Her mom was about 16-17lbs and her dad was 15lb. She's just a little girl! I also keep her really lean.:)

Haha, nah. I can't imagine trying to hold her leash while she swims! I call her my otter-Dox.:D I just have her drag her leash at the beach; she's off leash 95% of the time we're there. That's another thing I tell people; that Dachshunds are 100% trainable and VERY smart! Nola knows about...

That they are not (or at least, shouldn't be) lap dogs! Nola's only 8lbs, but she hikes, swims, runs, has started agility training and is crazy active!

Aw, 5.7lbs! Nola's weight fluctuates from 7.8 to 8.9lbs. Erm, I hope his nut drops, LOL!:o:D

I'd say the secret is a clicker, treats and a hungry dog! Nola picks things up SO fast, especially since we started clicker training. Also, keep training fun! Do a few cues, throw a toy, a few more cues, a snuggle, ect.:D

Hi and welcome! No such thing as too many questions. :) I'm Amanda, mom to my 2 year old wildboar mini named Nola. We'd love pics!:D

Nola gets 1/2 cup of food in the morning, 2 TBSP plain yogurt and 1 TBSP of pure pumpkin at about noon, and treats throughout the day for training.

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...

I chose a Dachshund because I needed a dog that was: Smart Small Loyal Cute Had a lot of stamina Funny Tolerated the heat well And Dachshund fit that

I love blues! Pics would be awesome! I'm Amanda, mom to my 2 year old mini wildboar female.

Hi and welcome! Pics are a must:p

Mine isn't, but if the dog has the right temperament I think they make a good therapy dog, regardless of breed. :) I follow a blog about a Dachshund who's a therapy dog. If Nola wasn't so particular about who she likes, she'd be a great therapy dog. Alas, she's more suited to agility and rally...
