5 out of 5 stars Dachsunds   October 3, 2008
This book is easy to read and very helpful. I needed a book on this breed of dogs so I could take better care of them. They are unique. I recommend this book and the breed!


5 out of 5 stars advice from a veterinarian   February 9, 2008
  2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This book is written by a vet and has a large amount of advice on health items. It starts out with feeding and then covers diseases and injuries and first aid. It also covers mental health issues such as how to potty train and also how to help social development. It gives advice for correcting bad behavior.

There are many color photos of different types of the breed.



5 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Doxie Info!   February 8, 2007
  7 out of 8 found this review helpful

My fiance and I are considering getting a dachshund. Before committing ourselves financially, we wanted to know what we were getting ourselves into. We purchased this book along with Dachshunds for Dummies and I feel like both of these books gave us a great window into the lives of Doxie owners. Neither of these books are written generically so that the publisher can just insert the next breed name into the title and publish it. The information was very dachshund specific. This book is full of great info from personality quirks to grooming tips to how to show your doxie to what to look for in a vet. After reading this book, my fiance and I decided that now was not the best time to bring a dachshund into our home. We'll wait until the conditions will be ideal for both us AND the dog!! BUY THIS BOOK if you want to know about dachshunds!!!!!!

An easily read and understood guide for the special cares and requirements of those most lovable of dogs, THE DACHSHUND. Succint, yet comprehensive and immediately of practical use. Every DOXIE owner should consider purchasing this book.
