Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are often known for their long, low-slung bodies and short legs. They were bred to hunt badgers in Germany, though their playful and loyal nature have won them many fans since then! Fun facts about Dachshunds include that they are extremely intelligent; in fact, they are the second-smartest breed of dog after Border Collies. They are also known to know up to 100 words and commands! Additionally, Dachshunds are great guard dogs – an average-sized dog will sound much bigger than they are when they bark.
Whether or not Dachshunds will cause you to have allergies will depend on your individual sensitivity to pet dander and also the level of care that you take to maintain a clean environment for your pet. Allergens from pets can vary based on their breed, so if you are sensitive to pet dander, it is recommended to consult with a doctor who specializes in allergies to determine if a Dachshund might be right for you.
It largely depends on your Dachshund's individual needs. Generally speaking, a diet consisting of lean proteins and digestible carbohydrates is usually the most beneficial for Dachshunds. Wholistic fare like fresh fruits and vegetables is especially recommended for their optimal health. For a commercial dog food, there are several brands on the market formulated for Dachshunds that contain quality ingredients and are easily digestible. Also, opting for a grain-free or gluten-free food is often a wise choice.
Preparing for your new Dachshund can seem overwhelming at first, but with a bit of research and knowledge you'll be ready for your furry friend. Start by familiarizing yourself with Dachshund-specific training and care including understanding the breed's unique dietary needs. Get your home ready for your pet by picking up proper supplies like food, a collar, leash and toys. Designate a space in the home for your pup to call their own and get acquainted. Make sure you research and follow any local ordinances surrounding the care and ownership of animals.
It is impossible to predict the exact size of your Dachshund puppy as size can vary even between puppies of the same litter. However, Dachshund puppies typically reach their full size when they are between 9 and 12 months old, with a mature size generally falling between 8 to 12 pounds. Additionally, Dachshunds may be categorized into three different size categories: Standard, Miniature, and Kaninchenteckel.
Yes, Dachshunds can be active dogs depending on their individual personality and energy level. These medium-sized dogs have been around for centuries as loyal companions, hunting dogs, and lap warmers. That said, like all breeds, Dachshunds possess a range of activity levels which range from relatively low energy to more lively and playful. Despite their short stature, Dachsies can benefit greatly from regular exercise such as a walk or playtime in the park, as this will contribute to overall physical and mental health.
Dachshunds can usually get along well with children – provided they were socialized and trained in puppyhood – as they are naturally affectionate and have an eagerness to please. Depending upon the individual dog's personality and temperament, they will generally be accommodating to the way children interact with them. It is also important to teach children how to manage dachshunds since they are small and are prone to fragile bones. A dachshund's devotion to its family, including children, makes them a wonderful pet for a variety of homes.
Dachshunds are often referred to as smart dogs, but more accurately they are known to be strong-willed and independent. These characteristics mean they can be difficult to train and therefore have the reputation of being stubborn. However, their intelligence can be an asset, as with the right approach and training, they can learn to be obedient and loyal companion dogs. Through their intelligence, they are often able to pick up on commands quickly and learn new tasks, making them ideal for those who want an active dog in their family.
