Dachshund Puppy Microchip Services

Getting a Puppy 2

Dachshund Puppy Microchip Services at Ponderosa Dachshunds Taking the proper steps to make sure our puppies stay with their families forever!   Every two seconds a pet is lost and most never make it home because they have no form of identification.  As a devoted pet owner, the idea of losing one of them is terrifying.  In 1985, a vet named Dr. Stoddard invented the microchip based pet recovery system and formed American Veterinary Identification Devices (AVID).  Thanks to his groundbreaking work in pet identification, pet owners had a new power in recovering their beloved pets. Here at Ponderosa Dachshunds we proudly use the Avid Friendchip.  It is so tiny that it’s implanted under the skin with a needle that you would use for vaccinations.  The microchip lasts a lifetime and is very affordable.  It can’t fall off like a collar and tag that most of us use, either.  If your pet is separated from you and taken to a shelter, they will scan the pet for a microchip and call Avids’ 24 hour hotline.  Avid will match the

Following the Rules

Getting a Puppy 0

Life is in the details!  Follow the rules now and avoid problems later. But what new puppy rules do you need to follow?  These are the two main things that you’ll need to look into while preparing for a new puppy.  These are probably the most important steps in the entire process. Before you actually purchase a puppy, it’s wise to make sure that you are allowed to have it.  If you live in a rental home or an apartment, please contact your landlord or superintendent about their policies concerning new puppy rules in your home.  Things you should ask about would also include weight limits (not going to be a problem with a mini doxie, but best to ask anyway), number of pets allowed (if you already have a dog), security deposit for pet owners, etc. Find out about local rules and regulations.  Contact your

Puppy Shopping List

Getting a Puppy 4

Puppy Shopping List for new Puppy Owners It’s pretty easy to get in one of those big pet stores and loose your way. I have gone in a store to buy puppy shampoo and came out with a cart full of things and NO puppy shampoo, on more than one occasion.  And, I should know better.  If you are a new puppy owner, or if it has been years since you had a “baby” in the house, you might want to print this out to take with you.  Having an idea of what you need before you go, helps keep you on track and ensures that you get the things you really need for your puppy.  Now, you may not need everything on the list, or your lifestyle might require extras that aren’t listed here, but our Dachshund Puppy Shopping List will give you a good idea of where to start.

How to Pick out a Puppy

Getting a Puppy 2

How to Pick out a Puppy   I am happy to offer some tips on how to pick out a puppy.  I think the most important thing to consider here, is that you chose the Dachshund breed for a reason.  They are amazing dogs, and by choosing a specific breed, you can look to breed characteristics to ensure that this puppy will be the right match for you.  You may want to read our blogpost on Dachshund Temperament if you still have questions about that.  Simply use the back arrow on your screen to bring you back to this post if you’re ready to learn more.  Now, I think it’s great that you have a color, coat and sex in mind when searching for a puppy, but you may have to wait for the perfect puppy to come along in that combination.  It’s doesn’t hurt to keep an open mind.  I am very careful to put some information about the personality of every puppy that is raised in our home, on the website when I list them.  I am also more than happy to chat more about that if you would like to call me.  I can go into more detail about the

Puppy Proof Home

A Puppy Proof Home If you are thinking about a new puppy, you’re going to need a puppy proof home! Puppies need a safe, fun environment to play and grow.  Puppies are like babies in that sense.  And, you can use a lot of the same tips and tricks that you would when you have a baby in the house.  Kids and Dogs seem to get into a lot of the same things.  So you’ll want to do a walk through of your home and see things from their perspective.  And, let’s face it, when bringing home a dachshund puppy, you’ll need to do more of a “crawl-through”.  Go ahead and get down on floor and look around. Check out the nooks and crannies and you’ll
