Dachshunds teeth grow from 4 to 6 months, so mouthing is very common then. And it is essential to keep under control this mouthing habit of your miniature dachshund at the early stage.

Usually dachshund puppies mouth our hands when excited or when playing and puppies more often do this more to kids than adults. And it is up to you to discourage this behavior of your puppy.You can try the steps mentioned below to train your dog puppy.

Initially, a dachsund will use his mouth to investigate his surroundings. During the teething process, it gives the dog relief to chew on all manner of items, no matter how hard it is.

Providing suitable objects for a dachshund to focus on can sometimes be a simple method of solving a mouthing habit. Indestructible chew toys like large nylon bones or hard rubber Kongs can supply a positive outlet for mouthing. It is recommended to use larger rawhide items and natural bones for your pups to satisfy their chewing requirements.

If your puppy is chewing on you, the instant the pressure increases use your "hurt puppy' noise leaving your hand in his mouth. Once the pressure is released, gradually remove your hand.

You may wish to offer the back of your hand for your pup to lick. By doing this, not only are you instructing him that our skin is tender, but also that you expect a sign of deference (licking your hand) for their action.

If the pup cooperates you, it is suggested to praise his cooperation. You can also train him to act on your commands.

If your puppy dont hear what you say, or is getting more and more cruel with people and also with you, its serious then. And he will continue doing the same until you teach him not to.
