I Am Not Your Veterinarian

I’m a passionate pet parent that shares what I know about Dachshunds and adventuring with small dogs.

Some of what I share is researched facts; some of it is stuff I’ve learned through living with pets my whole life; and some of it is just good ol’ opinion.

While authors of articles on this blog have a certain level of authority and expertise, you should never substitute information provided on this blog for information obtained by a licensed professional.

Please check with your veterinarian before your dog undertakes a new exercise routine, you introduce a new food, treat or supplement, or to confirm that anything I suggest here is a good fit for your dog.

Affiliate Link Disclosure

Affiliate programs are programs where I get a small percentage kickback of anything you purchase through an affiliate link on my site (you incur no additional costs but Amazon shared a very small percentage of the purchase price to me).

Anytime I place affiliate links in my articles, I will place a “disclosure” before any affiliate links to let you know they’re there.

The primary affiliate program I participate in is from Amazon.com.

The Amazon Afiliate program requires that I make this legal statement to participate:

“YouDidWhatWithYourWiener.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com

Amazon, a third party affiliate marketing network, uses cookies to help make sure I get a commission when you buy a product after clicking on a link or ad banner that takes you to the site of one of their merchants. You can read Amazon’s Privacy Policy.”
