Training your Dachshund is always a rewarding experience that requires patience and dedication. To get the best results, be sure to keep training sessions short and positive with lots of praise and nutritious treats. Begin by teaching basic commands like 'sit' and 'stay', then move onto gradually more complex tasks. It's important to lead by example and avoid dominating your Dachshund. Demonstrate the desired behavior and reward your pet when they do as you ask. If you encounter any resistance, take a break and relax.
