Dachshund Behavior & Training (available Anywhere in the Country)

Helping align your dog’s behavior with your expectations to create a more enjoyable life together!

What if Everything You’ve Been Told About Dachshund Behavior is Wrong?

What if “impossible to train” is simply a relationship and communication problem?

What if “stubborn” actually means that your Dachshund is confused.

What if the “he knows he did something wrong” look is actually a sign that your Dachshund is fearful or anxious?

What if “my dog did it to spite me” is a missed opportunity to see your Dachshunds cry for help?

What if excessive barking isn’t “just the breed” and is, instead, frustration because your dog’s instinctual needs aren’t being met?

The key to solving your Dachshund’s behavior issues once and for all is focusing on understanding and meeting your dog’s needs.

You may discover that the issues resolve themselves by doing only this one thing, which can fit seamlessly into your daily life.

If training is needed, it should be about helping you and your dog get to where you want to go, instead of focusing on “compliance” or “control”.

Hi, I’m Jessica, a Certified Family Dog Mediator (FDM) and Dachshund behavior coach. I live near Seattle but can deliver effective guidance virtually so it doesn’t matter where you live.

My focus is helping people enjoy their Dachshunds by teaching dogs how to live with their people and teaching people how to better communicate with their dog (and fulfill their needs!)

If you want to start achieving lasting change today instead of cycling through several dog trainers or methods that don’t work, book a free consult call with me today.

*Consults and training take place over Zoom (there is an option to dial in by phone).

Imagine Having the Fun Dachshund You Wanted

When you decided to get a dog, you probably….

… imagined casually walking through a crowd with your Dachshund buddy by your side without having to worry that another dogs, a kid, or stranger wearing a hat might come out of nowhere are and cause your dog to go into a barking and lunging frenzy.

… imagined intently listening your friend during brunch, or a beer on a patio, with your Dachshund laying calmly at your feet and not being distracted with micromanaging your dog’s every reaction to dropped dishes, shrieking kids, or the dog at the next table.

… imagined walking down the sidewalk with your Dachshund and not going into a panic when you see an out-of-control dog approaching because you know your dog doesn’t have time for that foolery and will trot on by.

… imagined inviting a friend over and not feeling flustered and embarrassed because your Dachshund barked their head off and nipped at their hand.

… imagined being able to focus on a work project in your home office, or sitting on a phone meeting, without your Dachshund’s constant demand barking, whining and jumping to get your attention.

Well, all of this is possible, and it’s possible without kicking your Dachshund out of your bed, off the couch, or using harsh methods to punish them.

Hi, I’m Jessica and I can help align your dog’s behavior with your expectations to create a more enjoyable life together.

I can help you no matter where you live because my consults and training are done virtually using video, voice messaging, and email communication.

Virtual training allows us to work at your convenience and it can be even more effective than in-person training because your dog’s feelings and behavior are not influenced by the presence of a stranger (me).

When you are able to accurately capture the behavior issues on video and share them with me, your “dog trainer experience” is transformed and more successful.

If this sounds good to you, but you still aren’t sure if we are a good fit, set up a complimentary 15 minute virtual consultation.

If you are ready to start digging deep into your Dachshund’s behavior, and learn some tools and techniques you can use to create a more harmonious relationship, take the next step by enrolling in the intake and strategy session with or without the training support.

Convenient and Clear Behavior Solutions

We live busy lives.

We want a well-behaved Dachshund but also feel like we don’t have the time or energy to fix the things that aren’t working for us… so we give up on trying.

I believe that:

• It doesn’t take a lot of effort to have a well-trained Dachshund.
• You don’t need to spend months incrementally improving behavior when you can problem solve and mange the behavior away now.
• You can make progress simply by incorporating “teaching moments” into your daily life with your dog.

The best part is that, you can meet virtually with me from anywhere in the world!

I would rather see you use your valuable time to work with your dog instead of spending time and being stressed by traveling, or fighting traffic, for a training session.

I can provide effective guidance over of Zoom calls and through the exchange of video and voice messages.

If you are ready to start truly understanding your Dachshund and their behavior, and learn the management and training skills that will help you address your dog’s “less than ideal” quirks, book the intake and strategy session today.

If you want the plan for moving forward AND you want me to walk you through how to implement that plan, sign up for my action plan plus support package (second button).

I Get Your Dachshund, and I Get You

I grew up on an urban farm before it was cool where I developed a respect for animals and learned about behavior and training in an intuitive and natural way.

Later, I learned to appreciate the Dachshund’s special quirks, and Dachshund owners unique preferences, as a dog sitter and President of the largest Dachshund social club in Washington State.

This experience inspired me to dive deeper into the theory behind animal behavior and learn techniques for teaching dogs to life harmoniously with us.

I just finished my Family Dog Mediation certification, which means I can help you understand the connection between what your Dachshund is feeling and what they are doing, and find a solution that works for both of you.

Issues I typically help people with include:

• Puppy Head Start (early socialization and care)
• Excessive barking
• Leash pulling
• Reactivity/fear aggression
• Potty training
• Resource guarding
• Multi-dog household relationships
