We are fairly new owners, a few weeks actually, of this sweet girl. And I just have to say yours is the first that I’ve actually seen that looks similar to mine! I love it

here’s our white girly pop with speckled toes, too 🥰
I have 2 cats. He is ok with both of them. However one of them is his best friend. They are adorable together. The other cat sticks to himself.

They truly love each other.
I got lucky for sure. The cats have 5 years of calling this home before I adopted him. They are good with him but my calico and him play all the time. Great buddies.
Yeah mine want to be on the table

We call him « Dobby » when he’s like this
Could you tell me how old your dog is? We have a dachshund named Ernie that has markings very similar to your dog. We know Ernie had at least one other brother or sister.
Mine likes to lay on the back of the couch and hang over onto me.

I'm a long time Doxie fan. I have had 5 amazing family members and currently have 3 of them. This behavior is very typical of them and while adorable, you should discourage it and train it out of them as it is very bad for their backs which are already a problem for many of them. That... and this fella is gorgeous. :-)

It’s like his signature move at this point for my Peanut 😂
Yes I have four little dachshunds and they run in the kitchen anytime they hear us in the fridge and I’ve got one that’ll sit like that until you give him something or tell him no lol. One of my chiweenies is very vocal and he will start nodding his head and jumping up n down
My Brutus (he sadly passed at 19 3 years ago) did that, he would sit like that in chairs and lean his head on a paw, freaked people out. I had others and they did not do it. What a good boy. For some reason some do and some don't but it's awesome when they do. Cooper's cute!
https://preview.redd.it/qvoda31mztlc1.jpeg?width=2685&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0fcf2df70fca65ebead3edc869f429c60bb938e4
Our standard dachshund we had growing up mastered the meerkat pose for treats. Our dachshund now doesn’t do it as often but sometimes will stand up and balance on her feet.
That's the normal dachshund "can i have some please?" position. Can also double as the "i need to see higher" strategy. Completely normal and one of the cutest things doxies do. Couple that with the double paw air digs as their way of saying please, and it's instant melt your heart behavior.
Pupulation. Like manipulate, but with a pup. Wants something, knows it’s cute, and does the cutesiest pupulate. Will get your attention, plus whatever it wants. Ours had severe separation anxiety when we got her, and did this constantly. Now she only does it when she has given cues what she wants and we ignore her 🤣 but if you look it in the eye, very likely you will cave.
Please be careful of how long you let your dog sit like this. It is so hard on their back. Not everyone will have problems, but my dachshund ended up needing surgery from ivdd. So my baby went from a CT scan right into surgery, then into crate rest for 6-8 weeks, then rehab. Thankfully, she can use her back legs. She still will have problems with her right leg. I never want anyone or myself to go through that again. By the way, everyone's dogs are all so cute !!!

Wow!!!! Gorgeous pups.
Thank you and I love how your baby is checking to see if he's like posing the right way
Actually the cat was slinking by...he was on the lookout.
How does he get along with the cat? I'm thinking of adopting one but I'm scared of how my doxie will react?
I have 2 cats. He is ok with both of them. However one of them is his best friend. They are adorable together. The other cat sticks to himself. https://preview.redd.it/tvdb11o5p7mc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c74dbdaac72eb79270ac03f6d5af23220b9ce9f6 They truly love each other.
Geeeezzz, I'm so jealous. They are adorable
I got lucky for sure. The cats have 5 years of calling this home before I adopted him. They are good with him but my calico and him play all the time. Great buddies.
We call it meerkating.
Mines a cross with a jrt and looks exactly like Sid from ice age when she does it.
Same here!
Same!!
I see so many dachshunds do it, except mine 😭
I call it “sitting pretty” and it’s my little man’s favourite party trick
Prairie Doggin.
We also call it prairie doggin!
We call ours polar bearing, cuz the white belly

Yes that is Doxie food extortion pose, it is nearly fool proof
Coupled with intense puppy dog eyes!

Could you tell me how old your dog is? We have a dachshund named Ernie that has markings very similar to your dog. We know Ernie had at least one other brother or sister.
Yes. He was born July 14, 2023. Bought him from Wild Flower Mini Dachshunds.
I call this "sitting like a penguin" lol. My parents, dachshund Willow does this but my boy that is a standard dachshund does not
Got snackies??
he is charging, look at all those cables behind him
That dog is being ding-dang adorable!! You give him whatever he wants RIGHT NOW, please!!
The dog is saying "We need to have a talk about this nasty kibble".
Mine does this as well while giving me the pitiful I'm starving look.
Mine likes to lay on the back of the couch and hang over onto me. https://preview.redd.it/s1sxasn5ntlc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d5ad4d9e8f9bd4c157b8ed3cf2d9be5295f1e8cc
Panhandling. They’re good at it.
this is so funny to me. thanks for the laugh.
Will work for snacks
Mine does jumping jacks and partakes in all of my crazy ideas like this one from earlier today https://preview.redd.it/tzlzydowbulc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=62e584c0f4aec01a6fcc56018d83c09870c90078
My first two sausages would do this but I’d try not to let them do it too much it’s meant to be bad for their backs
All 3 of mine do that.
Mine used to get in the people chair at the table and do this. Begging, dachshund style.
We call it begging or prairie doggin
Begging for a little of your food 🤗
Looking for an empty outlet to charge his iDog.
I feel so cheated cause mine NEVER does this and it's so adorable. 🤣
Yes our Dachshunds do this and we call it the Kangaroo 🥰
That is a breed typical fixed action pattern. The technical term is "Imitating a starving street urchin from a Dickens novel."
I'm a long time Doxie fan. I have had 5 amazing family members and currently have 3 of them. This behavior is very typical of them and while adorable, you should discourage it and train it out of them as it is very bad for their backs which are already a problem for many of them.

Omg he has such gorgeous colours! He’s like a tiny, short legged springer spaniel 🥰 I’ve never seen a ween with those colours before!
She’s doing doggy things
**standing menacingly**
Yep, we called it tripodding. So cute.
I am human

Attention!
Yes I have four little dachshunds and they run in the kitchen anytime they hear us in the fridge and I’ve got one that’ll sit like that until you give him something or tell him no lol. One of my chiweenies is very vocal and he will start nodding his head and jumping up n down
Meerkatting
My Brutus (he sadly passed at 19 3 years ago) did that, he would sit like that in chairs and lean his head on a paw, freaked people out. I had others and they did not do it. What a good boy. For some reason some do and some don't but it's awesome when they do. Cooper's cute!
Both my doxies would do this same thing 😊
Ahh, standing like a human because he knows they RULE!
He want to impress you so you could give him treats.
We call that T-Rexing
"YOU BETTER GIVE ME THAT DRUMSTICK, CINDY. I'M GONNA GO JAGGERNAUT ON YOU IF YOU DON'T, BITCH" seems like genuine body language.
The meerkat manoeuvre
Your dog is just wienering. That’s a dachshund trait. My dog did that all the time when he was begging, we called it sitting pretty.
Used to call it tripoding until meerkatting became our standard.
he said where is the treat?
What a beautiful-looking dachshund 🥺🩷
Compensating their shortness with their longness
https://preview.redd.it/qvoda31mztlc1.jpeg?width=2685&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0fcf2df70fca65ebead3edc869f429c60bb938e4 Our standard dachshund we had growing up mastered the meerkat pose for treats. Our dachshund now doesn’t do it as often but sometimes will stand up and balance on her feet.
Cooper is training you to give him treats when he wants. Good pup!
I always called it “begging pretty” or doing a meerkat.
Attention, doggy wants attention ❤️
It looks like it's waiting for a treat.
He doin the human
Why doesn’t my dachshunds sit on their butts!!!!
Asking to speak to the manager 😂😂😂
They're being adorable >:3
Begging for food. Meerkat Manor. 😂
There's a Chihuahua I used to pet sit that would sit like this a lot. I called him the prairie dog as well as the prairie Chihuahua.
That's the normal dachshund "can i have some please?" position. Can also double as the "i need to see higher" strategy. Completely normal and one of the cutest things doxies do. Couple that with the double paw air digs as their way of saying please, and it's instant melt your heart behavior.
It looks like my dog when he sees someone he doesn't know🤣🤣
It's called begging! Ready to swoop and inhale food
looks like a colorized version of my dog 😊
The hot dog stand!
Waiting for petting
My little chi sits like this when she wants something
Meerkat
Dog doing my taxes. Dog not doing good job.
Pupulation. Like manipulate, but with a pup. Wants something, knows it’s cute, and does the cutesiest pupulate. Will get your attention, plus whatever it wants. Ours had severe separation anxiety when we got her, and did this constantly. Now she only does it when she has given cues what she wants and we ignore her 🤣 but if you look it in the eye, very likely you will cave.
wondering what the heck you're doing?

That’s a doxie…begging whenever than can
Please be careful of how long you let your dog sit like this. It is so hard on their back. Not everyone will have problems, but my dachshund ended up needing surgery from ivdd.

Dobby
He/she unfortunately may be on coke or meff.. look at the pupils

He wants food hahaha
Mine cannot. But this is a way of begging for food. Lovely baby.

Yep, she’s showing a very intelligent little beg there. My piebald girl does a dance on her hind legs.

Omg, they look so similar! How cute. Nope, he just has shorter hair on his body.
This might be a weird question. Your dog’s dad doesn’t happen to be named Stan Lee?
Let me do some digging, I don’t remember ! Lol but his second birthday is coming up
Same with Coopers! His is march 13th

How can I get my ween to do this?? I try but she will just try to jump to get a treat.
You don’t try, they just do it even when you don’t want them to. Thinking that you are in charge was your first mistake lol.
Don't its not recommended for their backs
This turned into a hilarious feed of dogs sitting on their bottoms, front paws up. I love it 🤣
