wow!! that's awesome

My Andy was 18,5.

There life span is really long! Just like there body lol 😂

Ooh mman🙀🙀🙀

Wow! Mine is 1.5 years old!🌭🐶

So sorry for you, ot sure what I am going to do when I loose my little shadow Hercules. Hercules best friend was a guineapig until she went over the rainbow bridge. He used to love climbing into her hutch and snuggling her! Thank you for rescuing and caring for this little pup, RIP Snapi

@@traceywatson309 thanku so much for ur kindness. My Snapi is now with soul with me and I have already found a dog in shelter, 9yrs, so lost there that I decided to adopt. Hope all goes well and I get him. I continue to keep doing why I live, to show lost souls an another side of a coin in life. It makes me happy. Snapi is no longer in pain and Bobi will get me hopefully. 🙏🤲

Awww. They really are the best lil pets. I lost my Polo, daschund last week at 14 years. He was healthy and active throughout his lifetime.

My dachshund is 16 years old as of 2/12/2021.

I grew up with doxies. The last one I had I miss the most. He lived 17 years, and when he did go, it wasn't through old age, it was through mis-adventure. He was very intelligent, very affectionate and very protective. Such a brave little man - he thought he was a much larger dog, and would often lead the group when socialising with other dogs. Although officially he was my younger brother's dog, he bonded with me, and he lived with me for 10 years, and he was my constant companion during those times. I highly recommend this wonderful breed for a family, but warn you most strongly to get ramps for your bed and lounge in particular. They will jump up easily, but the jumping down is what will do their backs damage.

My Andy lived 18,5 years 😪☹️ All the best for your little boy.

My doxies just don’t like going on walks much but we let them roam around then backyard and front yard. Plus they play fight so that might make them tired haha.

I have a question if everyone in the house works and is gone at least a few hours a day do they get anxiety?

My doxies are always gonna be scared by people. If they don’t like what you do to them they will protect themselves. One time my uncle started annoying my bigger one in weight. He didn’t like it and bit. Also you should really expect more escaping. We have to dog proof our whole house for them.

@@notskromps8869 oh yes. My dachshund once escaped and went missing for 4 weeks. Thank goodness she came back, now we’re more cautious and precise in keeping her.

@@catramarrymepls2480 Haha we always go outside and we know where they go. If they escape

We a Bought on from a kid 10 years ago without knowing the breed. My wife just thought he was adorable.? We live in california. Do you know where I can find another wire- haired? I’d appreciate any leads.

I have 2 Dachshunds. Had 3, but she passed from cancer a couple years ago. My female is 17 and my male, a mini, will be 13 this winter. Sorry for your loss.

My parents got one that size, a wirehaired! Not overweight at all, just muscular and in great shape. He's the best, love him to bits

It’s important to get a new pup. You’re not replacing Teddy. You’re not being disloyal to Teddy. You’re doing it for your happiness. And obviously for the pup. Life is short. Your heart will heal with a new doxie.

Well get a new pair than ...

@@aardhond I’m working on it. I finally moved to a place that would be good for dogs. Now I just need to save and research

@@patrickconners i would advice to go to have a look in france and hungary and than into the hunting lines and germany has good ones but cost a fortune

I'm so sorry. I lost my little Black & Tan last year, too. I now have 3 reds [smooth, smooth pie & wire] that I adopted after their mother died.

hilarious comment !!

Everyone is!

Wires are fun the Clowns of the Doxies , love the terrier in them !

Thank you, we will :)

So sorry to hear that! Mine died to cancer as well but she was only 7 years old. Still she's with me, since I still dream of her often times after 20 years. She was my best friend and I loved her more than anything. I bet you love your lil sausages to bits too ♥ tyrant or not, they're adorable. But u know how to handle him :)

We have had several. We have NEVER had an aggressive one. Maybe it is you?

We have a dachshund and a golden retriever, and let me tell you, the little one has some ANGER inside him. He is so sweet with us and with the golden, but with outsiders he just loses it. Very brave dog!

I have an 8 month old male dachshund puppy and hes been great at training in all other aspects except aggression (he was the biggest dog of his litter), and we finally realized we needed help with it and hand a professional trainer do private lessons with us and now hes well on his way to being a well behaved boy. The trainer said it was the "prey instinct" coming out that was causing him to bite us all the time. Now we are keeping him leashed in the house 24/7 and if he bites we yank the leash quickly (but not too hard) 2 times and say no and hold him away from us about a foot. It's an unpleasant sensation for them so they learn quickly that there is nothing rewarding in nipping at us. We also reward him with treats often when he listen to a command. Hes extremely smart and actually very sweet at heart, he just happens to have a higher hunter prey instinct than some other doxies we know. So this video is totally correct that they will exploit your inconsistency and any weaknesses in training if you let them.

@@sammoore9120, Dogs are inherently agressive animals. They descend from wolves, wich are pack hunting predators. They are territorial and will kill intruders that don't belong to their flock. Wolves even fight within their pack for the position of alpha, and they even kill pups of other males in their pack. Dogs have been domesticated, and by that process, they have lost most of those traits that make them dangerous to humans. But dogs have been kept by humans to help keep intruders away, to kill vermin, to aid in hunt with the humans and even to be used as weapons. Aggressiveness has been a desired trait, -to a certain extent. For ten thousand years, dogs and humans have lived together. Only in the last hundred years or so have dogs been considered companions only. It is completely natural that dogs have a propensity for agressive behaviour. It is a trait that has been desired, and in many cases, it still is. Different breeds have different traits. What we might consider a "bad" trait, may be considered "good" in a different context. Aggressiveness in smaller dogs are tolerated to a larger extent than in big dogs. A yappy chihuahua is a nuicence at worst, where an equally agressive Great Dane would be completely unaxeptable around people. In Scandinavia where I live, Dachshunds are very popular as hunting dogs. They are bred for this purpouse. Dachshunds with a good hunting dog pedigree are often ferociously stubborn and fearless, but also intelligent and independent. This makes them good hunters. It also makes them more of a challenge to train and to control. It is easy to be fooled by the Dachshund's size and "cute" appearence that they aren't going to have the instincts of a very old breed of working/hunting dog. That's all.

@@JH-lo9ut you must be a cat person... but then cats are predators too, so maybe a hamster person.

Yaa they are so so active ! And have such a distinct personality. I lost my Polo last week at 14 years old.

So sorry for your loss...I’m sure you were a miracle in her life and gave her a good one. I like to think they watch over us-find that comforting.

that’s awesome that she got to spend most of her life with you.

@@Acidhair thank you

The "wire hair" Dachshund breed are known for physical ailments and die sooner than long- and short-hair Dachshunds ... study and talk with your local veterinarian before buying a wire hair Dachshund.

Congratulations!

Can you plz give me the meal idea ??

I know of some in Arizona/Nevada area

Check the AKC website. They have a list of reputable breeders in each state
