The Importance Of Socializing Your Dachshund Puppy

It is extremely important to socialize your pet early. Dachshunds like company and don’t like to be home alone. If you have other dogs or a cat, this is often all they need to make staying home more enjoyable. They need to get out often as a puppy and meet people of all kinds. This keeps them from getting fearful as an adult. Fearful dachshunds will bark more, and handle strangers less. Dachshunds who have not been socialized properly will often scare or bite children or other pets. Without proper training and socializing they can become protective of their people or toys and may bite out of fear. With proper socializing and training, you will find dachshunds love people and love attention.
