    5 out of 5 stars Excellence in Dachunds ...   April 9, 2008
    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?")


    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Source of Information for Dachshund Owners!   March 25, 2008
    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.


    5 out of 5 stars exhaustive, encyclopedic coverage   March 5, 2008

    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.

    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.
