Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are classified as members of the hound group. This specialty breed is descended from the ancient hounds that accompanied hunters on long journeys since ancient times. Their barrel-shaped bodies, long legs, and short-haired coats make these dogs a distinguished breed all their own. Dachshunds are not the fastest runners, but they can outlast their competitors both in stamina and determination. They are used as scent, gaze, and tracking dogs, aptly suited for such duties since hounds have an unparalleled sense of smell and acute hearing abilities.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be done in a number of ways. The first step is to keep the home environment as allergen-free as possible. Vacuum regularly to remove any potential allergens from carpets and furniture. Use HEPA air purifiers to capture allergens, dust mites, and dander in living spaces. Groom your Dachshund often to reduce the amount of dander, and use a damp cloth or vacuum attachments to remove the loose fur.
Dachshunds, just like most other dogs, should not be fed food intended for humans, such as onions, garlic, chives, scallions, grapes and raisins, macadamia nuts, chocolate and certain other sweets, fatty meats and dairy products, as these could make them ill and, in the case of chocolate, even prove fatal. Additionally, care should be taken to not overfeed a Dachshund, as their unique body shape and conformation make them particularly prone to obesity.
Yes, the Dachshund does have a few special requirements. Generally speaking, Dachshunds can do well in an apartment environment or with a regular exercise regime such as daily walks. They require attention and regular grooming, given their short coats and are a bit more active than other small dogs. It is also recommended to provide plenty of playtime and mental stimulation. Dachshunds need regular veterinarian check-ups to keep an eye on their spinal health which can be impacted over time due to their long backs.
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, ranging from miniature to standard. The miniature Dachshund typically weighs in at under 11 pounds and stands at 8-11 inches tall. The standard size variety tends to be around 14-32 pounds and stands at 12-16 inches tall. It is important to remember that regardless of size, all Dachshunds have hearty personalities and big needs for exercise and social interaction.
Yes, Dachshunds are generally very active and energetic. They typically love to explore, play, and investigate anything new that is introduced to them. They are often unafraid of larger dogs and require a considerable amount of exercise each day, either in the form of a walk or a run. They are fond of chasing small animals and have a natural aptitude for agility and earthdog sports. Dachshunds can fit into most households with active lifestyles and accomplish tough tasks that require quick reflexes.
Yes, Dachshunds can be good family dogs. They are known to be loyal, energetic, and even-tempered. Dachshunds are intelligent, making them easy to train, and their small size helps them fit into almost any living situation. They are loyal and playful with their family, which makes them great companion pets. Dachshunds have a tendency to bark, so it's important to establish discipline in an early age or risk having an ill-mannered dog.
Training a Dachshund is often seen as a challenge, as these dogs are quite intelligent and have a strong will. Many owners find that assertive techniques are the best way to train them, as well as making sure rewards are consistent and given regularly. With the right guidance and training structure, most Dachshunds can learn basic commands as well as display more complex behaviors. It can take a significant amount of dedication and patience for owners to help their pet reach their full potential, but the effort can be very rewarding.
