My weiner needs a name

[Carl Heinz]

Loving some of the names!

And while they may be stubborn and curious they are also quick learners.

Yes they are quite intelligent and learn quickly.  I've found that a loud clap along with a loud "NO!!" works quite well.  I've also tapped them on the nose with a loud "NO!!".

Most of my comments weren't directed at you, but more to tell folks who might not have had dachshunds in their lives a bit about them.

We presently have three but we've had as many as five.  Two are brothers and are eight years old.  They're tweenies.  The third is a large mini.  In the past, we always had standards--one as large as 34 pounds and not fat.  Unfortunately, as you get older, the need to downsize increases.

Our first was a smooth, but we've alway had long haired since then.

They are a lot of fun.

I had a bunch of names for my neighbors two weiners because they would poop all over my yard and bark like mad everytime I stepped outside!  You don't want to know those names!  (bad dog people suck!).

Doxies can be great little buggers to have around, cute as heck!...I'd probably call it "Shnitzle".  Nice new addition you got there.
