Wrestle mania in the puppy pen this morning 🤣
Are your dachsunds okay with children?
OF COURSE! They love it when children come to play!🤩 you’ll have to ignore Grumpy Lennie he’s so vocal when playing but harmless 🥰🐶🐾
🚨🚨🚨🚨Okay guys!! A lot of you messaging asking me to elaborate about my previous training post! So here it goes…. 🚨🚨🚨🚨
As I said in my previous RECALL post… ‘There is alot more that goes into recall than just a whistle or calling your dog back! You need to have control over your dog when he/she is off the lead’
In the videos attached you can hear some of the commands i have taught my dogs. There are two different commands. One if those being ‘Heel’ - this means the dog should walk behind me/to my heel. This is so when my dogs are off the lead and I need them close they know what I’m asking, I don’t need to put leads back on (unless it’s a road of course) - this usually applies when walking past an on lead dog!! Some dogs are not friendly or don’t like strange dogs, or in my case it can be overwhelming for a single dog to be surrounded by a pack of dogs… even if they are small. So it’s important you teach your dogs to walk calmly past other dogs under full control when off lead. Your dogs should never run up to or approach other dogs or people without your commands… this take me to the next important one.
In the video you can hear me tell my dogs to ‘Go play’ this means they are free to run around and have fun/go and meet the upcoming people/dogs. This is so important too, because it gives you chance to assess upcoming situations/ dogs before releasing your dog to go and say hi.
Once the dogs have been released to go and play they know they are free to run around/have fun/explore. But it’s so important to have a good recall before releasing your dog. Which relates back to the previous post.
Essentially on walks there are 3 major commands
➡️ Heel
➡️Go Play
➡️Whistle/Recall
When you’ve mastered this in a controlled environment it’s then time to try this is a more challenging one. ☺️ I hope this helps some of you that messaged have a further understanding ❤️
A bit of tuesday fun in the sun! ☀️Daphne the only girl on our walk today! That only means one thing!!

Okay guys!! Have had a lot of message recently regarding RECALL🐶 if your one of these then keep reading ❤️
Everyone has different ways of training. But here is my way☺️
I personally like to start puppies off from learning from more experienced dogs that I have previously trained up and I know their recall is 100% no matter what. But it is so important to do some individual training too!!
If you are a first time puppy owner there is many many other ways! At one time I was a new puppy owner with just one dog and had to train him without an older more experienced dog!
Because I always walk more than one dog I choose to whistle train all of my dogs. It is a fast and effective way of recalling your dog! It works best for me because a few of my dogs like to go off into the bush where I can’t see them, but as soon as they hear the whistle they know it’s time to retreat! The whistle is more effective because they can hear it from further away.
It takes dedication and time to get your dogs recall too 100%, but it is possible if you put the work in. My dapple boy Lennie has the highest prey drive ever!! I believe he is more of a ‘working’ dachshund, he hunts and he will go after anything that moves!! BUT…. He has value for the whistle and he has learnt to choose the whistle over whatever he is chasing. Therefore I know I can trust him to have fun chasing whatever he is in the bushes, because I know the minute that whistle goes, he’s back.
There is alot more that goes into recall than just a whistle. You need to have control over your dog when he/she is off the lead, but whistle training your dog is just a start. You can begin this in your back garden…
Every dog is different but if you put the work in, your get results out❤️
If anyone would like more tips on whistle training feel free to message me. - here is video showing the whistle recall. ❤️
Pupperinos off for their vet checks!! Fingers and paws crossed 🤞🏻🐾💕
