Minx's sneaky little tricks.
Dachshunds are very clever little dogs, though we might not notice it, but I certainly have noticed some of the stunts which Minx has plotted and pulled.
Minx has realised that every time she does a wee or a poo in the puppy litter tray, she gets a treat so she has started to get our attention then run to the litter tray, coopy down and pretend to have a wee. She then (thinking we've been fooled) looks up expectingly as if to say " where's my treat?" At first we fell for it but soon we realised that the little Minx was tricking us. Another toilet trick the cheeky minx does is when she goes to the litter tray and only does half the poo so of course we reward her for doing a poo and then after she's eaten the treat she does the rest of the poo and we think she's done another seperate poo and reward her again. So the little Minx has just got herself two treats.

Puppy Classes For Daisy Dapple And The Minx
Every thursday night we take Minx and Daisy to puppy training classes. Daisy and Minx enjoy it very much because there are other puppies there that they can interact and make friends with.
Training Minx is hard because you can't get her attention by sound or give her a command word. But we are learning puppy signing and since most dogs respond to body language anyway, this is proving effective with Minx. However I still find training Daisy Dapple easier so she's the dog that choose to train in classes. Leaving the hard work to my mom and my brother!
