Curious, lively, charming, and brave, Dachshunds are similar to terriers in their demands to be in on everything.
The comical clowns love to play games and have a great sense of humor. They are loyal little dogs, very attached to their family, and they firmly believe that sleeping under the bedcovers is in the Dachshund Bill of Rights.
It’s been often said that dogs are the only creatures on earth that love you more than they love themselves. Well, Dachshunds are no exception!
But sometimes, we take our furry friends and wonderful companions for granted. There are important life lessons that are sometimes easy to forget in our hectic lives, that all Doxie owners must never forget.
If we want to pay back the favor and give them the best life possible, these 20 important reminders should serve you well as awesome Wiener dog owners. The last one (#20) brought me to tears…
Check out the 20 Things All Dachshund Owners Must Never Forget on the next page:

I had to put my sweet little baby down a week ago today. He was 16 and had health issues. My heart just broke in half. I was blessed to have him as long as I did and know that he will greet me again!

Cried thru all them. Our beloved Abby crossed the Bridge on Dec 5 th. We still have 7 long haireds with us ranging from 4 years to 19 years old. Everyone of them, including the 2 wheel cart boys are our fur kids and loved much.

Love the very end after #20 —– “People are born so that they can learn how to live a good Life — like loving everybody all the time and being nice, right? Well, dogs already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”
– Spoken by a 6 year old boy who had just lost his family’s 10 year old, Belker, to cancer.
