What will you need to train your dog?
A shipping crate of a size to fit your dog when he/she is an adult. It must be large enough for the dog to stand up well and turn around (for reasons that will turn out to be apparent afterwards).
Secondly you must choose a proper potty area for your puppy.
You should choose a suitable Potty Sign.
To choose preferred snacks for your miniature dachshund puppy is most important.
The next essential thing you will need is a non ammonia cleaner. Select those which are specially for pets, No Go is one such example which you can purchase from pet stores.
Keep a chart to be acquainted with daily needs of your dachshund puppies.
Above all you need a little bit of time and patience especially if you got your dachshund rescue from a rescue shelter!.
Ok, we mentioned previously the crate (don't you love that word)
It would be best to purchase a crate made of moulded fiberglass. As your dog sees the crate he knows that the crate is a room of his very own when you are not with him or not paying your full attention.
The most significant feature you should consider is to buy a standard sized dogs crate in order that your dog can move freely in it. If you have young puppies then its beneficial to make use of a crate divider because it adds versatility to your pet home and saves your money by allowing you to adjust the dog crate living size as your pup grows.
One of the most significant point is maintaining a chart to know the daily schedule of your dog. You must note down his playtime, his timing of potty, wake up time etc. so that you dont face any trouble. All such timings can be recognized to you after observing his regular activities for at least a week.
Your dog can understand his potty area if you habitually hold your dog up and take him to the same place. After potty you must give your dog his preferred snack for example the hot dog or cookies.
It is necessary to stay with your dog when you take your dog outside for potty. From the beginning it is significant to teach your dog his potty time so that he can realize his ideal timing for potty nothing else.
The moment your dachsunds begins to relieve himself,say the word that you have selected for your potty word. It can be "go potty", "hurry", or anything you like. Just pick a word and don't change it! As the puppy is eliminating, repeat your selected word in a pleasant and admiring tone of voice..
Its great to admire your dog after he finishes potty and then take him inside and give food and play with him. The most important thing you should always keep in mind is to take your dog outside after food since dog has the tendency to poop out every 20 minutes after food and then take him back in the crate. This cycle must be continued till evening.
If you desire your puppy to stay clean throughout the night dont give food and water to him after 10:00 p.m. Employing the use of a dog crate in your home will provide your dog with a place he can call home thus provide him with a warm bedding. It is also necessary for you to move the crate near your bedroom during the night for your dachshund
Otherwise, it can make your pup do bed wetting also. Keep his crate next to your bed as he will feel comfortable. Mostly, they desire to go out immediately after they wake up. Take him to the same potty area to familiarize him and offer rewards as taught in the training methods.
