I have a long hair Dachshund about 16 months old. He's mostly potty trained, to go outside, however, every time he gets really excited to see someone, he loses control and pees all over the floor. I don't think he's doing it on purpose and I can't really punish him for it, but what can I do? I...

I've got an 11 month old long hair Dachshund puppy. Within the last week or so I've noticed he has a small but growing bald spot on his belly, and another one around the bottom of his neck where his collar sits. I haven't seen him itching it and there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with his...

I have a 9 month old Dachshund puppy. When I take him out in public he's usually quiet, even around other dogs. But if a stranger comes over to my house, he goes nuts! He will bark at the top of his lungs for hours until the stranger leaves. How can I stop this behavior? Obviously telling him...

I have a mini dachshund a little over 6 months old. Every night since I've had him (about 3 months) he gets put in the laundry room with his bed, some toys, a little food, and some water. Every night except the last 4 nights he's been fine with that. He goes to sleep and I don't hear a peep out...

I brought home this little bag of trouble a few months ago. He's 6 months old now, supposedly a purebread mini long hair dachshund, but he has no papers to prove it. Everything I can find about "long hairs" on the internet shows dogs with much longer hair than his. He's obviously not a short...

I lost my best friend, Hoover, almost 7 months ago. I still miss him every single day. :( I brought home a new puppy because I thought that would help, but it hasn't. Now I find myself having to distinguish between the two dogs by saying something like "my old dog" or "my last dog", but somehow...

I have a 3 1/2 month old mini dachshund that I got about two weeks ago. The vet said he was pretty thin and to let him have as much food as he wanted. I have but he doesn't eat much. He still seems really thin - his ribs feel like there's nothing but fur and bone. He's on dry food and that's...

Yesterday my pocket pc reminded me today is my dog's birthday. I got him a bone while I was out...it wasn't until I was waiting in line to pay that I realized he died a few months ago. :( He would have been 13 today. I'd give up everything I own just to throw the ball for him one more time. :(...

Last month my best buddy Hoover passed away. :( He was a Basset Hound/Beagle mix - but he looked and acted mostly like a basset hound. I'm not ready now, but in a few months I need to find a new buddy. I don't know much about basset hounds except for what I know from living with him for 12...

I got back from the vet a little while ago...my 12 year old basset hound has heart and liver failure. :( I'm hoping he'll make it through christmas, and then go naturally, but I may have to take him back for...well, you know what. :( :( I would just like to know how that's done? Just a...

I have a 12 year old beagle/basset hound mix. A few weeks ago I noticed he was shaking, like he was really cold. (but he was in the house) A short time later he was also drooling. He went to bed on his own and the next morning he seemed better, but wouldn't get up. That afternoon he got up and...
