Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a loyal and lovable breed of small hound dogs. They have a unique long body and short, stubby legs. Dachshunds were originally bred to hunt badgers and rabbits and have a strong prey drive for these small critters, so if you are planning to own one you should be prepared to actively manage its hunting instinct. Dachshunds can make a wonderful family pet if they are properly socialized and trained from an early age. They are clever but a bit stubborn, so consistency and patience is the key to training success.
Dachshunds are considered to be moderate shedders, so while they may not shed as heavily as some other breeds, they will still lose some hair. Typically, this type of shedding is seasonal, but some Dachshunds may shed throughout the year. Regular grooming and brushing can help to reduce the amount of shedding and make sure that the dog's coat remains healthy and brushed out. For owners who wish to reduce shedding even further, specially formulated shampoos are available to help reduce the amount of loose hair.
Dachshunds should never be fed table scraps, high-fat treats, or foods high in salt. Foods that could upset their delicate digestive systems, or cause choking or intestinal blockage, should be avoided. Items like rawhide, corn cobs, popcorn, meat bones, onions, grapes, raisins, nuts, chocolates, candy, alcohol, or chewing gum are all unsafe and can cause serious medical problems. Additionally, ensure the food you provide is specifically formulated for dental health, as Dachshunds are prone to dental issues.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund starts with educating yourself on their specific breed. Investigate the physical characteristics, temperament, needs, and energy level of the breed to ensure you are well-prepared to provide your pup with the best possible environment. In addition, proper socialization—from puppy classes to taking your pup to the park—is necessary in order for them to become confident and well-adjusted. Lastly, a healthy diet, ample exercise, and regular visits to the vet for preventative care will also help ensure your pup is happy and healthy.
The size of your Dachshund puppy can vary largely depending on the type of Dachshund you have purchased. Dachshunds come in two sizes; standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds typically grow anywhere between 16 and 32 pounds whereas miniature Dachshunds tend to stay close to 11 pounds or less. The size of your pup will likely be greater than the average weight for the size when full grown, as puppies tend to surpass the expected weight.
Dachshunds are an active breed and require consistent, daily exercise to maintain physical and mental health. Since they are a smaller dog, they don't need vigorous exercise like some larger breeds, but they should still be taken for regular walks or given ample time to play.
Dachshunds are incredibly friendly and loyal companions, making them excellent family dogs. They thrive on attention, love cuddles and are usually very playful. Dachshunds are intelligent, alert and eager to please, making them easily trained. As long as they get plenty of exercise and stimulation, they can be a great fit for an active family. Though small in size, Dachshunds are full of personality, the perfect pooch for a family looking for a cuddly, loyal, and fun canine companion.
Training your Dachshund can involve lots of patience and consistency. Start by establishing a routine and using positive reinforcement for things your pup is doing right. To get started you'll need some treats that your pup loves in order to reward him or her during the training process. You can begin teaching basic commands such as "sit" and "stay" and expanding to more complex commands over time. If your dog doesn't seem to understand the commands, break the instruction down into smaller tasks and steps, and ensure rewards are given immediately when the action is completed.
