    So because you have a dachshund it is best to challenge the breed. What I mean by that is give activities
    that the breed naturally wants to do. Sense dachshunds are part of the scent family of breeds, they naturally want to search for scents. So take a toy or food....hide it then give her the opportunity to find it around your house but not in one location. Like at meal times, put her food in different locations around the house for starters. Dogs want to be challenged we just have to give them the opportunity.

    Great post.

    Great post.

    Shes digging in that bag because I put a treat in a puzzle toy in the bottom. It's fun to get her riled up and then hand her to my wife.
    Just doing what I can to stay on this side of the dirt.
