ah yes, hold the dog like a gun

Slayy

Now feed the dog some laxatives and you got yourself a paintgun

I don’t want to think about what the trigger is in dog gun mode lol

Lol I was looking for this comment. 😂

I hold mine like a bazooka

good way to pick up Chihuahuas and small dogs in general, support the spine 🤗

I have a chi , and u can hold it with one hand..

@@your.preppy.petunia awwww😊

As a chihuahua owner I can confirm this is a fact

this is WRONG i hold my dog from arm and then also somtimes back

I love how stiff dogs get as soon as you pick them up XD I'm used to cats who kind of flop around but dogs just become a solid object as soon as their feet leave the ground

their face also usually looses all emotion xD they just go into standby mode lol

XD my boy just errors and does that uncomfy nervous mouth pinched look it’s hilarious- I don’t normally pick him up unwillingly either he lets me do it- ira my bunny also does a similar look in the car and when I pick him up his lips tighten a bit and he looks sort of nervous like not to the extent of worried (eyes bulging nothing like that at all just sorta like “why the hell are you picking me up I don’t like this” and then he does that angry thump and runs off once placed back down anywhere most times 😭

Mine thrashes around, we dont pick her up wrong or anything lmao

That's why I HATE picking up dogs. Feels so uncomfortable. Cats on the other hand, they're just so soft and I love picking them up lol

I think your dogs just don't like being picked up lol

I have a dachshund and unfortunately he fell down the stairs so he's paralyzed in his back legs. Pls be careful with their backs they are very fragile!

😮

Yup and don't let them jump! Give them doggy stairs.

That’s crazy man,but the way you worded it come on that sounds funny till I realize the poor dog is hurt forever😢

​@Soft Sounds what should I do if they don't like using safer methods like doggy stairs? Our couches aren't very high up but sometimes my very very small dachund will jump off the back that is a good 3ft in the air. I stop her when I can but I feel like getting stairs isn't going to solve this if she jumps off what she wants to.

lol

He’s so cute he just lets dad do whatever! I wonder if he was wondering wth is dad doing or when they see the camera do they already know to expect anything?! I ❤️DOGGIES!

He’s a pro for the camera ☺️

@@roswell_weenie he was very calm and didn’t care but kinda looked confused but was still very nice. Dogs are my fav animal because of that.

I work at a vet, and we got the SWEETEST little old lady Dachshund patient there. She comes in for nail trims commonly, and I'm always so afraid of hurting her back. I kneel all the way onto the ground so I can tuck my arm under all four of her legs and chest/abdomen and keep my other arm around her for security. She's so good. Ugh, I love her. I'm so happy she can still run and romp with that little tail going a mile a minute.

Exactly, they're prone to disk injury, so always be careful how you pick them up and don't let them jump off a bed or sofa, it's not good for their backs either. Ive only had doxies, I have two now, a long haired red, an a long hair English cream. Ive also learned that the long haired doxies seem to have better temperments than the short haired. But they're all wonderful!! I ❤ doxies!

Yea our doxie had to have back surgery a couple of years ago due to jumping off the bed a lot cost over $4,000, we have ramps for her but she can be pretty stubborn about using them

@@Fingerling2012 oh yes, they can be stubborn! Mine refused to use ramps but we would lift them up and down the bed and sometimes they'd get impatient and try to jump. My doxie who is paralyzed had a pancreatic tumor 4 years ago, it had a 75% chance of being cancer, they removed his pancreas, cost almost 10k, it went to pathology and he didn't have cancer!! We were over the moon! But question for you, do you have a long haired or short haired doxie? I've had both before and imo short haired doxies are more stubborn than the long haired ones. I think I read that years n years ago they bred the short haired doxies with cocker spaniels to get the long hair and they're pretty easy going, so idk, maybe that's why. Sorry to ramble!! 🙂

@@julietteoscaralphanovember2223 she’s a long haired doxie, my wife wants another which I’m ok with I love them but I’m trying to get a bassett hound

@@julietteoscaralphanovember2223 she looks like the one in this video just a little darker brown

I just wanted to say this is true for all dogs you should always support the hind legs while picking them up and also supporting the front.

Same I also commented this

The rage that gets induced when seeing people hold up a dog with one arm. Sure it might put up with that, but it might be struggling to breathe when all the pressure is being applied to its center.

@@usucdik exactly. it hurts my heart to see how careless people are with their dogs. people have got to be more educated with animals so they dont hurt them.

Shit thank you, I didn’t know I’ve been picking up my grandfather’s elderly dog the wrong way for a vary long time

😮😮😮

It really isnt a big deal

looks like ur gonna fire him like a gun 😂 adorable dog, thank u for teaching us!

He’s such a good little model

The dachshund’s eyes look so cute! 🥰

Cutiepie was so well behaved during the explaination

this is very helpful as a cat owner. cats are really flexible and easy to pick up, so I’m never quite sure how I’m supposed to pick up small dogs.

I love how the dog is patient and doesn’t run 5 miles in 5 seconds when you try to pick him up

I have a dachshund too and don’t forget to support their back by holding their booty! 😂❤xx

I love how perfectly the "if you don't know now you know" matched up

This is also a good way to pick up most dogs in general as you are providing support on both ends. Kind of like a bridge, you gotta have a stable foundation on both sides to prevent it from collapsing in on itself. I know plenty of people with pits who make sure to carry their big boys the same way.

Thank you so much, this video has changed my life in a way I can’t explain. I would always *pick my dog up by it’s ears* until watching this video, I am looking through new light, a whole new perspective. This is a drastic change that I never knew could happen to my short life in one short shorts video. The fact that I can now pick my dog up by it’s body instead of the ears is very pleasing to me, knowing that my dog will enjoy it too. I will have to pick it up off the washing machine later, I’ll do this then! I also wanted to say how amazing it was at 0:03 as the dog knew it would be put through some pain but it trusted you that you will hold it correctly by it’s body. Now I know why my dog has been running away from me, even when I offered him potatoes. He must be scared, I a,ways thought it was because he has had a bad experience of eating food out of my hands, he has gotten food poising from chocolate and contracted many diseases (aids etc.) from my hands. My dog will be delighted

Bro what

I can’t 😂😂😂😂😂 and yet….I am 😅

That is the cutest instructional video ever 🐶😍

Stretchy dawg must be supported 💅

such a patient little dowgy ❤️

What a sweet and beautiful little dog!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣they are long enough to use 2 hands anyway! So cute! Looks just like my missy!

You can also scoop your arm around their rump as well, that’s how i hold my dachshund. He’s got a sensitive stomach so he doesn’t like extra pressure on it. Makes him squirm lol

That's how I pick up my Yorkie too! I just wanna be super gentle on her spine and stomach!

Her bewildered facial expression was priceless 😩😂

Ale słodziak 🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍

The dashund still looked very concerned 😂

They often have that look lol, my late dachs always looked like he was re-evaluating every decision in his life lol, he was super spoiled and loved

"I just wanna have a good night.....but this human keeps picking me up!!!!" 😂

Dog's facial expressions are everything

I could never pick up my dachshund. He would always pee 😂

That’s how I pick up all my animals. Supporting their natural position and lift.

What a beautiful creature😍❤

Dude, mine gives me the death glare if the thought of picking him up crosses my mind. It's like he can read my mind.

I have 4 dachshunds, and I always tuck their tail and hold their bottoms to add additional support. Don't wanna hurt their backs! 🥰😍💜

Not the dog looking terrified the whole time-

The dog looks startled no matter the hold, that's so funny and cute

I’m a mini dachshund breeder I always say pick them up how you would a shotgun 😂 very important lesson though for all future and current owners!

My dachshund in sleeping on my lap rn and I just figured out she snores 💀

my cat snores💀

@@Excuse.me.plz. 💀 mine purrs in his sleep

“ how to not pick up a dachshund “ *proceeds to pick it up*

He didn’t pick it up?

He showed you carefully.

He doesn’t take his feet entirely off the ground when showing what not to do.

I had one, a little cinnamon stick. She was a beautiful and sweet little girl. I’d pick her up with one hand and cradle her like a football; she loved it. She lived for 18 years.

the dog shoots loads of cuteness Into there face

Yes, with my dachshund I have to support their whole body and since they are only little , it’s good to do that anyways

Awwww so cute and adorable 🥰 ❤😊🐶

this was super adorable 😂

This is why I panic when kids come around my dachshund because they don’t like know how to pick them up

That’s the cutest sausage 😂

Well thank you, now i want one just so i can pick it up. IT'S SO CUTE!😊❤

oh my god its so cute!!

To pick up my dog, I hold my dominant hand between the front legs, then support with the rest of the body with my other hand and hold hum close. It is the easiest and most comfortable way for both of us

I love how they show you how to not do it but yet there still doin it like does anyone else feel the same way?!

I used to hold mine like a baby, or have her laying in my arms as if she was just laying on a blanket or the floor, she was such a cutie

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 love this! My pupper is 1/3 long-haired dachshund & he got the looooooong body

That dog is too cute 🐶

Such a beautiful coat 😭

Same with picking up a cat!! Gotta support the fluffy butt too.

Havent seen this breed in my entire life but thanks for the tip!

My 🌭loves it when I pick him up

Love the puppies. This was helpful

The ears have great grip.

Its so cute

I pick up small dogs like this everytime it is the safest way for them

That’s a good doggie right there

I love Werner dogs like that one 😻

Dachshunds are the cats of the dog world

Not me thinking that the dog was going to dance

YES! when I was in kindergarten and first my friends when they came over always tried to pick up my dachshund like this, and it irritated me even when I was little (I had 2 but they both died in elementary school, I have a beagle now) tbf only one had a dog and it was a yorkie and the other 2 had no pets till 3rd grade, but still.

We hold out long cats like that its so funny >

“Put your hands up! He’s loaded!”

The dog is cute🥰🥰🥰

All dogs with a long back need care when lifting. Be nice to yer noodle puppers, everyone! That's an adorable Dachsie~

Not the last one... she was literally a Statue 🤣

perfect! I have a miniature Dashhound and now I know how to pick her up!

SO CUTE 🥰

Así es. Gracias, es importante publicar estos "detalles"... ❤️

That’s how I pick my cat up too😂

It's a good way to pick up old dogs or cats, especially if they are pretty big

What a ✨MODEL✨

That second one is the definition of _"That looks like it hurts."_

So cute ❤❤❤

I pick up my cats like this as well!

As someone without a dog I can confirm this to be true

Thanks! This'll help with my 2 little cuties!

I got a dachshund yorkie mix, I always pick her up the wrong way and wonder why she squirms. Thanks for tutorial lol

Thank you!❤ I’m getting a baby weinee soon :)

this is how you should pick up every dog!

That's how I pick up my cat 😂😂😂

Why did it sound like a gun was being cooked when he picked up the dog like a gun- That was too perfect

That's how I used to pick up my cat. ^^
