Miniature Dachshunds Reviews

Our home is a paradise because of the fact that we have mini-dachshunds. It started out 12 years ago. Our daughter mentioned, only in passing, how sweet little dogs could be. Her new husband searched high and low and surprised her with Clifford, a 4 month old mini-doxie. Within 2 weeks, they had to go to a two week training for the National Guard. We accepted our duty with happy faces. Clifford was delightful and fun and perfectly house-broken by the time they got home. After less than 2 weeks at home, they came to realize they just didn't have time to care for Clifford or play with him as he… read full review »

I own 2 dacshsunds, my oldest one is 4years old and was a rescue and the youngest one is 6months old and was purchased. I love both of my dogs, the oldest one does have some back problems that are due to the abuse she recieved at her previous home. Both of them are bad to go potty in the house and believe that they are too good to use a puppy pad or to have to go outside in bad weather. I feed them Science Diet dog food and they love it, it is by far the best food I have found and the only one the older one will eat! These pets are very loveable, I would reccomend them to anyone but if you… read full review »

I have had only three years experience with this breed, however, I have spent a great deal of time with both a female and male Dachshund. I think they are different in some ways in the way that they interact with humans. — The female seems to be easier to train and is really more loving. Loves to sit on my lap any time. And would rather do that then anything else. — The male will sit on my lap and cuddle but usually for short periods of time. He would rather be playing with another dog or outside playing. However, about 9pm each and every night the male dachshund then is ready… read full review »

My seven year old mini dachshund is my best friend! I only feed her Eukenaba for small breeds. Mini dachs are very stubborn (picky) to the point of it being funny. For example, mine will not go potty anywhere but in grass! She's a service dog so that can become a problem if we are out all day and all there is is asphalt. Her problem, though, not mine. :) Yes, this tiny dog can be a service dog. She can tell when my blood sugar goes low. I can't test regularly for personal reasons, so she is my barometer. She actually saved my life one night. The children in my complex absolutely love her and… read full review »

I have two Dapple Dachshund, one black one tan, one femal one male, one long hair, one short.  They could not be more opposite!  They are always happy go lucky, they love to cuddle and play with the big dogs.  I know my girl can tell when I do not feel good, she will not leave my side!  I do not know what I would do without these two.  Neither were a problem to house break, but the boy likes to run, he goes to the neighbors- 1/2 mile away to visit.  He is so fast he is there before I even know he is… read full review »

I have a 6 year old Red mini.  He is the best dog ever.  I got him right at 6 weeks.  He housebroke quickly and used puppy pads.  If I have to leave him home for a long period of time during the day I will still put one out just in case.  Loves to travel and take a bath.  He does have back problems and has been through about 6 weeks of therapy and meds.  Cost a lot of money but would pay any amount in the world to keep him healthy.   He is doing fine now and has not had any more… read full review »

I have a 5 year old wire-haired tan doxie who I've had for 4 years. He was a little hard to house train, and he still pees in the house every now and then but I wouldn't trade him for anything. He's the best dog ever. a great companion, he doesn't leave my side. He's not really a big barker, only if someone new comes over or he gets really excited. He's a cuddler and a lap dog, with very expressive eyes. He can be very stubborn at times, but then again, so can I! — —… read full review »
