Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of short-legged hound, originating in Germany in the 1500s. Highly energetic, brave, and loyal, these furry friends come in two sizes—standard and miniature—and three coat varieties—smooth, wire-haired, and longhaired. Most recognizable by their long, strong bodies and short legs, Dachshunds are an ancient dog group and were developed to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals, although nowadays they make perfect companion dogs.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. They possess a double-layer coat which consists of a soft undercoat and a wiry, harsh top coat. These two types of fur enthrall the attention of potential allergens, thus making them not hypoallergenic. People with allergies should prepare themselves if they plan to adopt a Dachshund. However, it is worth noting that some individuals suffering from allergies display fewer symptoms when around this breed of dog.
Dachshunds can enjoy a variety of different foods, but it's important to make sure it's a balanced and complete diet. Owners should provide them with a diet that has protein and carbohydrate sources and ensure that the food is free of low-quality ingredients such as fillers and by-products. Some of the most popular items in a dachshund's diet include lean meats like chicken or beef, cooked fish, brown (or wild) rice, barley, oats, and other grains.
Preparing for a new Dachshund can seem overwhelming at first, but by taking time to plan and gather the right supplies, you can be sure that everything is in place and ready for your pup's arrival. First, decide where your Dachshund will sleep and spend time. Make sure the space is comfortable and secure, with plenty of chew toys and blankets to snuggle in. Next, stock up on the necessary supplies such as food and treats, a collar and leash, and any grooming equipment you may need. Finally, familiarize yourself with any local laws concerning pet ownership;
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes. Specifically, they can be found in three distinct, standardized sizes: standard or 'classic,' miniature, and kaninchen ('rabbit-sized'). The average size of a standard dachshund is between 8 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder and weighs around 16 to 32 pounds; mini dachshunds typically stand 5-6 inches tall; and rabbit-sized dachshunds are usually 3-4 inches tall and weigh around 1-2 pounds.
While not all Dachshunds will like swimming, some certainly do. In fact, they can be incredibly adept in the water, and enjoy splashing in the shallows or even the deeper end. As long as the dog is safe, it can help to make sure your Dachshund has plenty of exposure to the water so they can grow accustomed to it. Many Dachshund owners take their pup to local parks with swimming spots, teach them to retrieve objects from the water, and introduce them to swimming activities with their owners.
