A Mini Dachshund through a Houston year
In Houston the hard season is the long one.
On about 147 days a year the normal high tops 85°F, and August peaks at 94°F, which makes summer the season of indoor zoomies and long naps on the coolest floor in the house. Spring and early fall flirt with the heat too, so a Doxie here learns to love the air conditioner like a family member. Then the calendar flips in Houston's favor. January brings highs of 64°F and lows of 46°F, and winter becomes the walking season, prime time on the Buffalo Bayou Park Trail, the Heights Hike and Bike Trail and the Paul Carr Jogging Trail Park, where a nose set close to the ground can inspect every bench and bush. By November the highs are down to 73°F, and the dog parks come into their own, with Johnny Steele Dog Park, Market Square Dog Run and West Webster Dog Park all worth a visit for a small dog with big plans.
Raising a Mini Dachshund puppy in Houston
Your Houston Doxie's social life begins the day the puppy comes home, since the first 3 months are when socialization counts most.
Early weeks have a steady beat: out the door first thing in the morning, after each nap and last thing at night, with a cheer for every success and a calm, scold-free cleanup after every miss. Guests matter as much as the schedule, because meeting people of all ages helps prevent fearfulness later, so calm, friendly folks and well-mannered dogs arrive a few at a time, armed with treats and praise. Revival Dog Training - The Heights, Stephanie Bennett's Believe in Dog and Smart Dog Training Center list puppy classes near Houston, and classes can start as early as 7–8 weeks when they stay clean and keep sick dogs out. Lifting follows a house rule too: a hand under the chest, the other under the hindquarters, back level, and children learn it the same way. Walks are short, about 5 minutes per month of age plus free play, and quiet gets rewarded with treats and praise whenever the barking stops.

Your Mini Dachshund can come home to Houston five ways, and your Travel Concierge plans the trip with you.
Meet your breeder and your puppy at a public place near them, a date and spot your Travel Concierge sets up with both of you.
Your breeder (or their nanny) brings the puppy to a nearby public spot, typically their closest airport, police or fire station.
An approved ground partner drives your puppy to the address nearest you in a climate-controlled cabin.
Airlines fly puppies in cargo only when it's between 45°F and 85°F at every airport on the route; in Houston the normal high tops 85°F on about 147 days a year, 62 of them in July and August, so a summer flight sometimes waits for a cooler day.
A flight nanny, usually an off-duty flight attendant, carries your puppy in the cabin from the breeder's arms to yours, same day.
- 1You reserve your Mini Dachshund and choose how it travels.
- 2The breeder's vet examines your puppy 3 to 5 days before it leaves; the health certificate and the Certificate of Veterinary Inspection, required by law for interstate travel, are included.
- 3Most puppies are home in one to three weeks, and your own vet sees yours within 72 hours of arrival.
Before your Mini Dachshund puppy comes home
A little paperwork, a lot of love
The nearest 24-hour emergency vet is VEG ER for Pets in Houston, about 1 mile from Houston.
The rabies vaccine protects your puppy against rabies, and Texas requires it by 4 months of age. A licensed vet gives it on the schedule Texas requires. Keep the rabies certificate the vet gives you; licensing and the rules for bringing a dog into Texas both ask for it.
Most places require you to license your dog, and the City of Houston is one of them. A dog license is an annual registration with the City of Houston: you show proof of your puppy's rabies vaccine. It matters for three reasons: it's the City of Houston's record that your dog is vaccinated, it's how a lost dog gets matched back to you, and it funds the animal-control service that would pick your dog up. The City of Houston requires it once a dog is 4 months old, which is about the time your puppy finishes its first vaccines. Apply through BARC Animal Shelter and Adoptions, online at the link in the sources; bring the rabies certificate your vet gives you, and renew it each year.
Take your puppy to your own vet within 72 hours of arrival.
Only with Pawrade, you receive a pet insurance policy with no waiting period included for immediate accident or illness coverage, 1 month, with every puppy.†
†NH, NY, RI, SC and TN residents excluded. Activated by calling MetLife; coverage begins immediately following policy activation. See the offer for full terms.
