Questions & Answers
Fun fact the standard size Dachshund originates from Germany, where they were popularly used to hunt badgers in the mid-19th century! Dachshunds are the smallest member of the hound group, but they can be either short-haired or long-haired. And, they really enjoy a good howl, with some being known to bark for up to 10 minutes! The name "Dachshund" is German for "badger dog," and their notoriously long bodies and short legs make them ideal for burrowing and going after their prey.
Whether or not Dachshunds will cause you to have allergies depends on your individual level of sensitivity. Allergies can be triggered by pet dander, saliva, fur, or urine, so it's important to consider the proteins and particulates that may negatively affect you. Dander can be found on many breeds of dogs, and Dachshunds are no exception. However, while some Dachshunds may cause an allergic reaction, others may not.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special dietary needs. Being a small breed, they benefit from food specially formulated to provide them with everything they need. A good diet should provide essential fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and adequate levels of protein. Dachshunds need a diet low in fat to prevent digestive and cardiovascular issues. Dachshunds also benefit from a diet that contains ingredients suitable for their smaller bodies. In general, kibble should be of a smaller size to make eating easier.
Before you commit to bringing a Dachshund into your home, there are some essential supplies you should have on-hand. Be sure to purchase a crate or kennel and make it cozy for your pup. Also, get a comfortable, supportive bed for your pup. Make sure you invest in proper grooming supplies like shampoo, brushes, trimming tools, and nail clippers. Finally, stock up on food and water bowls, treats, and toys. All of these items will ensure that your new Dachshund is safe, healthy, and happy in their new environment.
Absolutely! Generally, Dachshunds are among the smaller breeds of domesticated canines. A full grown adult usually ranges from 8-9 inches tall and 16 to 32 pounds in weight, with some miniature varieties being smaller in size. Dachshunds are classed as toy or companion dogs according to The Kennel Club and the American Kennel Club, which further identifies them as being small in stature. As a result, owners of Dachshunds are often surprised at the amount of personality and energy these little dogs possess!
Dachshunds have been known to enjoy the occasional dip in the pool or lake, although they are not natural swimmers. A leisurely paddle in shallow waters may be pleasant for a Dachshund, but they should not be left unattended as they may not be able to make it back to shore easily. It is also important to not overdo it because of their shape, most Dachshunds will tire quickly and become exhausted.
Dachshunds are a great choice for families with kids as they are generally friendly and affectionate dogs, usually loving to be around children. When socialized from a young age, Dachshunds can get along very well with kids as well as adults. It is also important to provide proper structure and rules when training a Dachshund so that they understand what behaviors are and are not appropriate around children. Having a responsible adult to supervise when children are interacting with the Dachshund is also important for the safety of everyone involved.
Training a Dachshund requires consistent and positive reinforcement. Start by creating a relaxed atmosphere and lots of positive reinforcement for desired behaviors. Be sure to use rewards like treats, praise, and playtime when they are successful in any training efforts. Keep sessions short and sweet a few minutes per day to start and gradually build up to longer times. Be sure to be consistent in the direction and expectations of the behaviors being trained. Utilize verbal cues and rewards when they are successful and be sure to give them plenty of time to think and process through any new behaviors.
