Welcome!
Hi! I’m Jessica, the dachshund life coach
You can find a lot of information about Dachshunds online, but most of it is fragmented, contradictory, or not written with your specific dog in mind. I help owners connect the dots between health, behavior, enrichment, and daily life, so advice actually makes sense and works in the real world. Instead of guessing which information applies to your Dachshund, you get personalized guidance based on breed-specific knowledge, research, and years of hands-on experience.
So how can I help you right now?

Because Enrichment is More Than a Toy – It’s a Life Lived Well!
CUSTOM DOXIE ENRICHMENT PLANS
A Dachshund isn’t just a small companion dog – they’re a purpose-bred scent hound with terrier grit. They rely on us to meet all of their needs – including mental, physical, and sensory – and under-fulfilled needs can show up in less-than-ideal ways such as excessive barking, reactivity, anxiety, and frustration. An enrichment plan tailored to your Dachshunds personality and your lifestyle can help!
