How I train my award winning Dachshunds

at 5:02 I accidentally went the wrong way. Everyone makes mistakes :)
clicker training is essential for more stubborn breeds like dachshunds that get bored quickly. My show dogs and trick dogs are trained both disciplines with clickers!

[@micktuna27]

My three dachshunds have me trained. They are the greatest dogs.

This is wonderful! My wife and I had two wonderful little dachshunds for sixteen years, who both sadly passed in 2019 nine months apart. We are just now expecting to take our next little doxie into our lives in just a few weeks once he is ready to go home. This time around, we are committed to training our little friend, and your video gives us hope that we can indeed do this. Thank you again so much for your content!

I’m 53 and never had a dog so don’t know much. However, my 18 yr old son recently got a Daschhund puppy and it’s just fantastic. It’s totally opened my eyes to dog life, so full of love and fun. It’s now 1 year old and so easy to manage and live with. What a beautiful dog these are 👍

We had a Mimi doxie growing up. He was adorable! I'm getting ready to get one for my grown up self. Love. Love. Them. They have the absolute best personalities!

[@MrGrumpyGills]

Minor nitpick: Correct spelling is Dachshund, not Daschhund. It's pronounced somewhat like "dax hoond", there's no "dash" in there. Dachs = German for badger Hund = German for dog

[@thinkFishcatchFish]

OMG this Doxie and you are frickin' adorable! Great, educational video on utilizing clicker training. We lost our long-haired mini Doxie that we had for 11 years just this past December. She was a sweet soul (Our daughter who was 6 at the time named her Sweetie, which turned out to be very apt). She loved everyone; even people she never met. And to this "MJ" character who seems ridiculously, overly affronted by people who give their hearts to a dachshund; most canines have health risks. Go shake your fist at the clouds.

[@italiangirl2440]

I'm sorry for your loss. I had to put my long-haired dachshund mini down last April. She got stomatitis even though she had her teeth cleaned yearly. I still miss her today but I did get another puppy just recently period seems life have forgotten how hard it is especially when they Bite

[@tomwessling7065]

I think I see the benefit of the clicker. I am going to watch more of your videos - they are very helpful. I have been trying to train my Elsa to ring a bell to go out. She often goes very quietly to the door but ends up wetting the mat. When we are busy and she is so quiet - we don't know she is asking to go out. She will ring the bell if I say 'ring the bell' but she doesn't associate it with asking to go out.

[@francoissioarnaud236]

Would opening the door every time she rings the bell be enough for her to make the association?

[@tomwessling7065]

@@francoissioarnaud236 Thank you - I am searching for a way for her to make the connection - she is very smart but at times has selective hearing - haha. She knows what 'ring the bell' means and does it on command. She knows that when she rings the bell I open the door. We've tried moving the bell from the doorway into the room where we spend the most time, now we are back to having the bell by the door. The best thing I have done with her housebreaking is to 1. Keep to a schedule, 2. Take her out about every 2 hours, 3. Take her out during and after play time in the house (when she is excited), 4. Keep her with me so she can't sneak off and potty in the house. I will keep trying with the bell - maybe someday she will make the association?

[@italiangirl2440]

@@tomwessling7065 you're doing a great job Tom just keep it up. Before long you will have the perfect dachshund

[@atiyyab.8912]

@tomwessling7065 I trained my doxie Roux to use a bell to go potty and although it did take a little work (she was afraid of the noise at first) we had her bell trained by the time she was 8 months. What finally worked for us was when she would voluntarily ring the bell (which we hung on the wall next to the door) we’d say “go potty” and immediately take her outside. Once she peed/pooped, we would give her enthusiastic praise and a treat and bring her straight back in. Keep at it, you got this! 🙌🏾

[@denisedehart-vanlaan544]

Hi. Can you share how you teach them such a lovely down? If I put the treat on the floor covered by my hand to let my dog figure it out he eventually gets frustrated and too excited to lay down. I've also tried to sit on the floor and make him move below my arched legs but I think he associated that with going from one side to another :( And you are so right about them getting bored, my dachshund throws a tantrum if I make him spin/twist too much maybe it's too much effort just for food :D

Any recommendations on house breaking? I have a seven month old long-haired dachshund and it’s starting to become impossible! he is neutered but he will still just randomly P in the house even after we’ve already gone outside and he’s done his business. He jumps up on furniture and poops on it. does not ask to go outside. I am home all day with him trying new techniques. my breeder pretty much just told me I need a belly band for a while because otherwise there would be pee stains all over the house that I wouldn’t even notice. I’m keeping him on a house leash 3 feet from me and he will still pee directly beside me. He has been to the doctor and does not have any medical condition or UTI help!!!😮

[@happydog3229]

Hi Katlin - what is your trick for teaching a puppy to stand for examination? I’m a huge fan of clicker training and love it!

[@KatlinMeeko]

Hi there! Well for the Dachshunds I ask them to sit, reward it, then quickly ask for a stand and move the treat away, they normally get up quite quickly! Mark and reward. Then start asking for a stand in a heel position and be sure to only reward when the feet are "locked in" and the puppy is nice and still. Finally, you can move forward to actually touching the puppy while they are in a stand :D. I do find a mat or platform to be extremely helpful when working on stationary stands later on in the process. Hope that helped!

My Dachshund Penny Lane was bitten by a snake in the UK and later died from infection. It's been long enough now (two years) and I think I'm ready to love again. However prices for Badger Hounds have sky rocketed because of lockdown. There's some very unscrupulous owners breeding their family pets and asking thousands for puppies and not really caring about the quality of owners some of which are very superficial.

Beautiful example of clicker training but unfortunately like most dogs they get bored with it that’s why it’s always best incorporating a strong prey drive with a toy/tug it’s difficult to maintain obedience over the years with treat training unless your with a regular pet dog but their hounds they will work all day long but nice training nevertheless
