What comments have you had this week?

The long lead one was a new one for me! I get the “ohhh bet he can’t go far” ALLLLL the time.

How small would the lead need to be if it was the same size as him? Noooooo 😂😂

Most dachshunds don’t need longer walks.

They need opportunities to do what they were bred to do.

Dachshunds are natural hunters. Their brains are wired to search, sniff, track and find. When we only focus on physical exercise, we can leave those instincts unfulfilled.

That’s why I love incorporating simple hunting and retrieve games into our walks.

Not only does it give them a healthy outlet for their natural behaviours, but it also provides the mental stimulation that many dachshunds are missing.

The result?

🐾 More engagement on walks
🐾 Better mental fulfilment
🐾 A dog that’s often calmer and more settled at home

You don’t always need to walk further, you often need to make the walk more meaningful.

This is where dog training often fails

Trying to go too far, too soon

I’d be lying if I said I’ve never done it myself. Things start going well, confidence builds… and then you push it a bit too far.

One more rep. One more distraction. One more step up in difficulty.

And suddenly, what was going well starts to fall apart.

But the skill in training isn’t just knowing how to progress.

It’s knowing when to stop.

To rein it back in while your dog is still winning.

Because that feeling of success? It matters just as much for you as it does for your dog.

You get reinforced by progress too.

But if you go too far, too soon, you lose that momentum on both sides.

Keep it clean. Keep it achievable. Keep them winning.

That’s how real progress is built.

If you want help structuring that kind of step by step progression with your dog, DM me to find out more about my 121 coaching programme.

I’m sick of “trainers” telling dog owners they can’t train if their dog won’t take food

It’s a common occurrence when speaking with people. They’ve been told they can’t train their dachshund because they won’t take food.

It’s not true. Food isn’t the only reinforcing thing for dogs.

I actually use a sniffing cue as a reward for my dachshunds recalling back to me.

What do you use as your rewards?

Rescues like us are in crisis, full to the brim, turning dogs away and closing their doors. Adopters are dwindling, financial strains are affecting us all. These are hard times.
BUT…..
We remain open, we do not close, we will continue to help support the dachshund community and find homes for dachshunds that need our help. The knock on effect is that it may take a little longer to do that but our coordinators will be working tirelessly, rehoming and advising and supporting Surrenderers and adopters alike. We value your support so please like and share. Let’s get this message out there!

The biggest mistake I see dachshund owners make?

Forgetting these dogs were bred to work. A bored dachshund becomes noisy, reactive, and frustrated but give them a job, and you get a calmer, more resilient dog.

My dachshunds are trained to search for Kong and clove, which keeps them mentally stimulated and that’s often something that’s overlooked with this breed.

Follow along if you’d love a calmer dachshund 🌭

Comment “LOVE” to join my FREE Reactive Dachshund Webinar on Monday, 18th May 🐾

One of the biggest mistakes I see dachshund owners make?
Pushing training too far, too soon.

When we move too fast, we often create more stress, more setbacks, and more reactivity.

In this free webinar, I’ll be breaking down:
• Common mistakes reactive dachshund owners make
• What may actually be making reactivity worse
• 3 simple steps to start making real progress

If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start this is for you.

I’m so excited for this 😁

Comment “LOVE” below and I’ll send you the details
