Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, commonly referred to as “wiener dogs” due to their distinctive sausage-like shape, originated in Germany and come in two sizes: standard and miniature. They are lively, energetic and friendly dogs and have been referred to as “burrowers” due to their affinity for digging in tight spaces. Dachshunds require specific grooming requirements and, unlike some other dog breeds, need frequent brushings and regular bathing. They can be especially sensitive to cold weather and should not be left outdoors for extended periods of time.
Dachshunds have a beautiful and unique coat. It is short, but can be either smooth or wire-haired depending on the particular breed. The smooth version is shiny and sleek, often coming in solid colors such as black or red. The wire-haired version looks rougher and unkempt, usually with a speckled pattern of black and tan. Both coats are easy to care for, requiring no specialized cleaning or grooming tools. Generally, a brushing or light combing once a week is enough to keep the coat in good condition.
Dachshunds need a balanced, nutritionally complete diet that contains the key components of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Most experts recommend that Dachshunds eat a high-quality, natural diet that is tailored to their individual needs. This can be in the form of a raw diet, wet food, or kibble, depending on the preference of the owner and the nutritional needs of the individual dog.
An essential list for what you need before getting a new Dachshund includes a comfortable and secure bed, a chew toy or bone to help keep their teeth and gums healthy, a high-quality and nutritious food that meets your pet's special nutritional needs, a leash and collar, and if you plan to take your pet outside for strolls, a safe and enclosed space with sturdy fencing. Additionally, to ensure your pet and home stay clean, stock up on poop bags, a pet brush, and pet shampoo. Don't forget to buy treats to positively reinforce desired pet behaviors.
Dachshunds are often referred to as ‘big dogs in small packages’ due to their energetic, loyal and lovable personalities notwithstanding their diminutive stature. Generally, Dachshunds are classified as smallto medium-sized dogs but their spirited nature belies their size. Whilst they fit comfortably in small indoor spaces, Dachshunds require plenty of exercise such as walks, runs or a good game. Typically, these hours of activity will encourage the development of strong bonds between owners and their little canines.
Dachshunds tend to have mixed reactions when it comes to swimming. Some have a natural affinity for water and can be seen frolicking and having a great time. Others may not feel as comfortable in the pool or lake as others and may take some time adjusting to it. Most Dachshunds, however, enjoy the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of swimming.
Dachshunds are often very loyal dogs and make great family pets. They are fairly easy to train, love to play and show plenty of affection towards their owners. Their small size and low energy levels make them great for families who want a companion but don't have a lot of room or time for a larger dog. Additionally, Dachshunds are low maintenance and low cost, and they can develop a great bond with the people they live with.
Training a Dachshund requires a lot of patience and rewards! Start with basic commands like "sit" and build up from there. Once your pup has learned the basics, gradually add more complex skills. Use positive reinforcement like verbal praise and treats when your Dachshund exhibits the desired behaviour. Ensure you remain consistent with the commands you use and provide rewards often for good behaviour. Remember to also practice commands in different settings as Dachshunds can become easily distracted by their environment.
