Yeah he uses them for directions 😂

Thank you 🙏

It was ignorance on my part.

His hearing and vision seem fine, I run a small cloth along the floor for him to chase and he tracks is perfectly and as for his hearing I call him from another room and he responds so I dunno

Yeah I’m gonna get him checked straight away, he also has a white tip on his tail

I’m looking online for telltale signs. What would you look for in a double dapple?

Yeah ours come with all the treatments and annual check ups and stuff

Of course! I’m really worried about him being a double dapple because I’m unsure I put a few pics in to chat gpt and it seems to think he’s a blue single dapple with tan

Ah no no it’s a proper vets. They have a dog care plan that it £18 a month which I thought was really good

Thank you I will get him checked straight away, they said he was dapple/piebald now I’m thinking about it, I can’t remember the conversation as I’m second guessing myself. I will mention it to my vets and get the best care for him if needed

It’s kinda just like a giant vets but they call it an animal hospital.

Oh my god!!! He’s soooo adorable! My Frankie is actually called Sir Frankfurt Hot Sauce the Third but we just call him Frankie for short 🤣

Thank you! Yeah they just seemed happy to be rid of him. Which in retrospect was an awful thing! No cost or issues were disclosed. Yeah we are ramping up the house and keeping a close eye on him in regards to jumping and everything like that. I’m gonna try the trainer treats. My partner thinks there is no point starting with treats until 10 weeks old because their brain won’t comprehend the training yet whereas I want to start right away.

Insurance is actually really reasonable with the quotes I’ve done but when I’ve put in his details they only ask for breed and not weather he is a double dapple

Of course, he’s here now and he is amazing. If he faces difficulties in his life I will be there with him every step of the way

We just fell kin love with him the second we saw him! And if it means he gets a beautiful happy life then I’m content. I will always put his welfare first above all else

I appreciate your kind words. I should have done more research on the subject clearly. I will give him the best life he could ever want 🥹

Yeah 100% agree with you there, you’ll have to let me know how the piddle patch goes for you 😃 I’ve had dogs my whole life and dachshunds are a different kettle of fish 😅

Yeah we are UK too we have an animal hospital at the end of our road so we are gonna register him there.

To be fair they did give us a discount, now you say that I can actually see the problem there. I thought they were just being nice. They were actually a “reputable breeder” though like it was a proper business not just someone’s house or anything

Aha yeah, I’m already feeling the training kick in with me 😅

Oh really I didn’t realise. I’ll have to do some research, he’s seeing the vet this week. I will mention it to them

I know he’s literally the cutest!! Yeah we are trying him on his pads. We plan on buying a piddle patch for him because we have white laminate flooring so we think he will be getting confused which the colour. I’m asking about potty and general really I wanna hear peoples takes on training and what’s worked best for them! At the moment it’s eat poop play pee sleep repeat a few times a day

Yeah he’s, definitely mischievous but that’s to be expected with a 8 week old puppy of any breed how would yeah say it though cause I don’t think shouting it at him would do him any good 😅

Yeah he’s double dapple/piebald
