Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are classified as hound dogs by the American Kennel Club. They are part of the hound grouping of breeds due to their history of hunting game by scent. Despite often being referred to as "Sausage Dogs," dachshunds exhibit much more than their well-known, elongated figure. Dachshunds have naturally energetic personalities, and many are bred in a variety of colors, such as ligher buff and chocolate.
While Dachshunds do not have fur as long as some other dog breeds, they are not considered a non-shedding breed. These dogs will naturally shed their fur periodically, just like any other kind of dog. This is the natural cycle of hair replacement; however, the amount of shedding varies from dog to dog and depends on the amount of grooming each animal receives. It is important to brush your Dachshund regularly to prevent matting and to reduce shedding.
Dachshunds, like all dogs, need a balanced meal of high-quality proteins, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals. This can include both wet and dry food of the appropriate size for their breed. Dachshunds have high energy levels and will need to consume more than other dog breeds as much as 2-3 smaller meals throughout the day. In addition to a health diet, owners should also provide nutritional treats and dietary supplements to help maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Before getting a Dachshund, it's important to be sure you're prepared for the responsibility of caring for them. A few essentials you'll need include food and water dishes, a comfortable bed, a suitable collar with tags, a brush and other grooming supplies, a crate or kennel, chew toys, and a leash and harness for walks. Quality food and treats are also essential to keep your new pup healthy. And don't forget a Dachshund-friendly safe space in your home for them to explore.
Dachshunds are definitely classified as small dogs. They usually range in size from 11 to 16 inches tall at the shoulder and weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. Additionally, their short legs reinforce their classification as small dogs, and generally, they cannot be considered a breed of medium or large size. Bred mainly as hunting dogs, their unique shape and long body provide them with the agility to fit into tight spaces and chase prey both above and below ground. Although a smaller breed of dog, their personality and energy levels are still quite substantial.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running; however, it is important to be aware that because of their short legs and long backs, Dachshunds are not built to handle long running sessions. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to your dog's energy level and listen for signs that it may be getting tired and in need of a break. It's best to start slowly and gradually increase running distance, pace, and time, as your pet builds endurance.
Dachshunds can indeed be great with kids for many reasons. Not only are they full of energy, but they have an irreverent and playful spirit about them that is sure to bring laughs and smiles. Along with their friendly nature, their size means they are well adaptable to living in companionship with children. They are short enough to play on the same level as the kids, and they are also easy to scoop up and cuddle with. What's more, they can be very patient listeners in times of need, and offer a shoulder to lean on in difficult moments.
Training a Dachshund can be a challenging yet rewarding experience. While Dachshunds are known for being stubborn and somewhat difficult to train, with patience and consistency it can be done. The key is to start training your Dachshund early and stay consistent with your lessons. Establish rules and boundaries, and provide positive reinforcement such as treats and toys when your pup accomplishes a task correctly. It's also important to be consistent with your instructions, speaking clearly and in the same tone of voice and rewarding the good behavior.
