When running, be sure to keep your pup at your side and provide enough rest stops to give your pup a chance to catch its breath.
Dachshunds can make wonderful pets with kids, as long as some important considerations are taken into account. Generally speaking, Dachshunds are quite lovable and can do quite well with children, but first and foremost, they need to be properly socialized. If properly conditioned to being around kids, Dachshunds can become loyal and protective companions, but if not, they may be easily startled or scared.

Training a Dachshund can be both an easy and a difficult process depending on the individual dog.
