Get in the habit of offering a puppy chew that he is ‘allowed to bite’ – when he starts to bite thing that he isn’t allowed to.
If he continues to go for your feet or hands, put him in a gated area. When he gets into the crazy play / biting phase, offer him some of those chewy options for his teething. It must not phase the dachshund dog breed, haha. Hi Monika, the yelling out loud when bitten didn’t ever work for my dachshund pups either…but I have heard it works for other dog breeds.

I also like to Refer to this Great Stop Puppy Biting Video from McCann Dogs, they do any awesome job at showing how to train the puppy not to bite: Using longer rope toys also helps keep those sharp teeth more at a distance. This allowed me to continue to play with my puppy and protect my hands while this puppy teething phase was going on.Ĭontinue to provide lots of chew toys and replace them when they get too sharp or pieces start coming off. The personal way I prevented my hands from getting shredded up is to wear cheap gloves… I used my spare pair of winter gloves that I didn’t mind getting roughed up. Those puppy teeth are so sharp.ĭoxie puppies need to put their mouths on something constantly to relieve that sore mouth as the puppy teeth work themselves out and the big chompers move in. My husband and I called them “pin teeth”. My dachshund puppy, Eko, did the same exact thing. Now, I’m not saying this is the ultimate dog trainer answer, because it probably isn’t… but as a Dachshund Mom, it worked! Our Solution: We learned that putting on some old thick gloves, like leather or winter gloves, while we played with Eko allowed our hands to heal instead of getting torn up every day. It felt like we had a mini-raptor on our hands. My hands were a mess from playing with Eko! He even got a hold of my nose once and that hurt terrible. My husband and I knew how important it was to make sure our puppy, Eko, was getting enough playtime, so we played with him several times each day. But, their way of playing usually involves grabbing onto you or your clothes with their sharp teeth. It is completely natural for your dachshund puppy to want to run and play with you. Unfortunately, during the puppy teething phase, those little baby teeth can feel like sharp pins, and they can do some damage to your hands…and your face if you get too close.
Playing down on the ground with your little puppy is a great way to do some extra special bonding.
