Train Dog To Use Indoor Dog Litter Boxes
In: More About Dogs

Far more than most dogs, a dachshund with poor socialization has the worst chance of stoking fear baiting as a habit that can make friendly encounters with new people or dogs more of a reason for fear than for excitement. But an even more worrisome fact is a dog owner's ignorance of the dog's possibly giant amounts of anxiety pent up inside. All this, simply because of a lack of dachshund training.
The foremost step in Dachshund training for a dachshund puppy is to give it plenty of socializing opportunities as much as possible. This is as simple as taking the dog around the neighborhood. You also need to keep the dog protected from being dominated on, but not necessarily coddling. A physical attack on a twice-small dachshund puppy could leave much more scars than what is seen.
Naturally, even dogs that belong to the same litter will always have diverse temperaments. Some dachshund puppies are fearful owing to their young instincts, but there is usually some critical point that cements the concern. If there is a way that breeders can help stamp out these tendencies, it would be by observing carefully the puppies as a group for their first few weeks. It does not help at all if the smallest pups are kept away from the others.
To trace whether your dog is biting out of fear or out of aggression, observe the position of the dog's ears during its tense moment. If the ears lie backwards rather than forward, then its possible the dog is a fear biter. It may be especially true if the dog is usually submissive around dogs it knows well.
Fear biters most of the time are housed nowadays in shelters, and carry histories of abuse. Most breeders recommend that these dogs need to be altered by their owners as soon as possible. Breeding them is clearly out of the question, much less getting them to join trials and show rings.
It is therefore clear that a dachshund given to fear baiting will rely heavily on tons of its owner's understanding and patience. Shouting at a fearful dachshund, if it also bears the bad luck of submissive urination, therefore ought to be among the last things a sensible owner will do.
Lastly, those interested in Dachshund training need to be aware of the challenge of restoring the self-esteem of a dog that is among the most hard-headed that a trainer could deal with.
Owners need to actively seek the triggering cause which initiates the fear biting in the dog. Since animals are sight-oriented, its possible that the first thing to trigger the reaction is something they would see. As we have clarified, there is no reason why a dog's misbehavior ought to lead you to vent your ire on the dog. There are more subtle yet sensible ways for you to communicate to the dog your unhappiness.
