Do you plan to Get a Dachshund? Do you Already Own a Doxie?
This book is an excellent resource for anyone who is looking to purchase or rescue their first or fourth Dachshund?
Should you get an adult or puppy? And if you already own a Doxie the book gives you tips on how to work out some common problems (e.g. Housebreaking tips) with these at times demanding little Napoleons. It is a really nicely laid out book. There are lots of great photographs. My only disappointment is that they are not in color. But the author show the different sizes, the three varieties (Smooth, Wire, and Longhair), and the many different colors & combinations. The author also describes how to take care of and avoid back injuries. I have many other Dachshund books and this is among the best. It shows why these long short legged dogs with big hearts, big appetites, and big attitudes are so special. As well as, why there is a common thought that like Lay's Chips you can't just have one. I own two :0) and am thinking about acquiring a third.
