Dachshund is definitely one of the cutest breeds of dogs out there, no debate on that. Another thing that dog breeders are not arguing is that these type of dogs are also the hardest ones to train.
Here are specific tips in clicker training dachshund and the reward method of doing it.
Clicker Training - Dachshund training works especially well if a clicker is used. Dachshunds don't have especially acute hearing, but they do respond well to single sharp sounds, and clicker training can be done in short sessions well-suited to their attention span.
Rewards - Punishing a Dachshund is pretty much pointless, due to the inherent strength of their will. They will become increasingly stubborn and maybe even aggressive if excessive punishment is doled out. Instead, use positive reinforcement to reward appropriate behaviors. Dachshunds adore petting and "scratchies", not to mention dog treats, as rewards for appropriate behavior.
Dachshund training can be a trying experience. It takes time, patience, and a great deal of effort on your part. Above all, don't allow your adorable little Doxie take charge of you. The instant you give in to those big eyes, you've lost the battle, and it can be very difficult to regain that ground as he continues to grow.
Alright, finally some words of encouragement for you if you are having a difficult time training your dog, any breed of dog. Keep it up, don't give up. It can be difficult and tiring but the reward is priceless. You will have a great, behaved and obedient companion for a long long time.
