Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are one of the most unique and interesting breeds out there, and their most notable feature is their elongated bodies, enabling them to work as excellent and efficient hunters. Not only that, but they're also incredibly loving, loyal companions, and they're intelligent enough to be trained in advanced obedience drills and even tracking. They also have a playful and adventurous nature, making them great family dogs that will keep children entertained and add a blast of fun to your home.
Dachshunds are not considered to be hypoallergenic. Unfortunately, dander -the tiny particles of shedding skin cells often found in pet fur -can trigger allergies in some people. Although some dachshunds may produce less dander than other breeds, individual dogs should be carefully evaluated by potential owners who have allergies prior to purchase or adoption. It is recommended that potential dachshund owners with allergies spend some time with the individual pet to test for an allergic reaction before bringing the pet home.
Dachshunds have nutritional needs that are somewhat different than other breeds. Since they are small dogs with unique body shapes, they require a diet that is higher in fat and protein than other breeds and low in carbohydrates. Many dog food companies offer special formulas specifically for Dachshunds. These formulas can contain the right balance of nutrients that are important for this breed. In addition, because of their elongated back, it’s important that Dachshunds consume a diet low in fat and high in fiber, which helps with digestion.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is relatively easy! Firstly, make sure you have the proper supplies and environment; a crate with a comfy blanket, water and food bowls, age appropriate toys, high quality food, ID tags, and a safe and secure area for them to explore and use the bathroom. Secondly, you'll want to do what you can to puppy-proof your space, blocking off unsafe areas and items, such as stairs and electrical cords.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are considered small to medium sized breeds. Although they can grow to longer lengths, the average size for a Dachshund is up to 11-16 inches in length, and can typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. This is much smaller than many other popular breeds, such as Golden Retrievers and Labradors. Compared to those breeds, Dachshunds are not considered big dogs though they do have a lot of personality in a small package. Despite their size, they are very determined, loyal and loving to their families.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running! It is important to remember that Dachshunds are a relatively small breed, so while it is okay to let your pup enjoy a good walk or jog, it is probably best to avoid high-impact activities such as running full speed over long distances. Before hitting the trail, make sure that your Dachshund is physically and mentally ready for the adventure.
Absolutely, Dachshunds are excellent family dogs. They are as loyal and loving as any other breed in fact, many people regard them as a lap dog worthy of their devotion and affection. They bond deeply with their human family, becoming fast friends and forming special bonds. They are also relatively low-maintenance, so they're great for busy families. Dachshunds are intelligent, alert and confident, and with the right training, they make excellent watch and guard dogs, as well as good companions.
Dachshunds absolutely demonstrate intelligence, with research suggesting they are as smart as other dog breeds. With their strong sense of smell and lively personality, they are well-suited for certain tasks, including gathering food and hunting. Fortunately, their highly-developed intelligence and cunning nature may also make them ideal pet companions. Dachshunds learn quickly and respond to positive reinforcement training very well with gentle and consistent instruction. As loyal dogs, owners will likely find that their love for their family members is often mirrored in their willingness to learn and follow commands.
