Do dachshunds have a tendency to bite ?
Dachshunds are misunderstood breeds of dogs. We have owned them the entire time I have lived (i am 17 years old) and it is true that they can be a timid breed and can bite if not properly raised. The problem with dachshunds are is that people do not take care of them. Every puppy you get will begin being mouthful because they do not know better, what we do in training our puppies is gently curve their bottom lip over their teeth so that when they try to bite us, they’re just biting themselves. We never put pressure on their lip, we only put it there so that they’re hurting themselves, not us! Also, if you are going to put your dachshund on a chain – just don’t get one. Don’t do it! We see a lot of dachshunds getting mistreated and biting. If you have kids, you have to teach them they can’t pick up the dog! They can’t step on the dog, etc, because dachshunds are fragile creatures – but in all my years I was raised around dogs, I’ve never been bitten and in fact, my dachshunds we have ha
