I love this book on Dachshunds! It gives me the widest variety of information I could need. It has helped me learn so much about the new puppy I adopted & as I read it I continue to learn more everyday. I would highly recommend this book to anyone caring for & wanting to raise a responsible,loving dog. It covers everything...seriously. Buy it if you care for a loving dachshund & want to learn how to raise him to be a great dog.

This book covers every possible aspect of owing a doxy. It spells out everything that can go wrong so that people will not buy the dog and then months later give it to the pound.

The first chapter describes the lifetime cost, $20,000, and the several hours per day of your time that is required to keep poochie healthy and happy.

It then goes into great detail on finding the proper breeder. Then taking the dog home and holding hands with it hours per day until it is happy in your house.

Socializing the dog with all sorts of people and other pets.

Preventing bad behavior.

Traveling. And on and on.

Wonderful book and very insightfull information for new owners of Dachshunds. Can't go wrong :)

We just adopted a Dachshund from the Humane Society, so I was looking for lots of information to take care this 3 year old sweetie. The book answered all the questions I had at the time, and lots more.

This is a great book! It is the most comprehensive Dachshund book I've read. I've read it cover to cover and have referred back to it several times while training my new miniature dachshund puppy. It covers everything from selecting the right puppy/dog to showing your dog. It is filled with great housebreaking training tips, solutions to everyday problems, first aid tips, and even how to handle a hard to train dog. It is a fantastic source of information for any dog owner, but especially the dachshund owner.

I'm reading through all the dachshund books I can find to learn more about the breed (I own one) and figure out which dachshund book is the best one out there. I just finished reading this one and it's at the top of my list. The information is stellar. However, the pictures are horrible, grainy, and in black and white. Hence the four stars.

This book is a surprisingly excellent view of the Dachshund World. It is very highly recommended for anyone contemplating the purchase of a dachshund or who has a dachshund and wondered "Why DO they do that?" (or "Why DON'T they do that?")

Just what I was looking for. I am new to Dachshund, I have adopted hairy Dachshund girl (recommended creature). this book has everything you need to became a great Dachshund owner.

My older sister brought home a abandoned pup that she couldnt take care of so I did.
first dachshunds are a armfull.
The introduction does state the truth about the challanges with the breed but in the end they are loveable.
My dogs problem was it was shy and ran away from strangers. Once it became use to us, it barked, jump and shew up wood furnature.
afterwards,I found it was a dachshund.
I went online and found some small details about the dog but some sites provided little info.
I bought this book and it gave me VERY helpful info.
How to best train the dog and what to expect and how to deal with the pup.
It did say how fortunate an owner would be if your dog loves veggies.
Anywho, it didnt give me much info on how to work with my overly shy dachshund. It provided some help but not much.
Still it gives very good insight about the breed.

Still can't get mine to go outside all the time to potty. He is very stubborn. Hardest dog to train I have ever had! Book is informative, my Dog is not a good student.
