Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are intelligent, active and friendly dogs that make great companions for families of all sizes. They are known for their short legs and long body, making them excellent fit for households with limited space. Dachshunds are alert and vigilant, making them good watchdogs. They require moderate exercise with regular mental and physical stimulation to stay healthy and happy. A few notable health issues among Dachshunds are intervertebral disk disease, patellar luxation and obesity.
Although the short hair of the Dachshund means they typically don't shed as much as other breeds, they do shed a moderate amount year round. On average, their coats will require regular brushing to help maintain texture, sheen, and prevent and remove excess hair. Unfortunately, they don't fit into a single category, as they can be both a low shed and non-shed dog, depending on their specific coat type. Their long haired coats typically involve more shedding, while their wire-haired coats are known to shed the least.
Dachshunds should not be given any type of food that could be a choking hazard such as cooked bones, raisins, grapes, onions, chocolate, macadamia nuts, or any other type of human food that may be toxic or difficult to digest. It is also important to feed Dachshunds as close to a species-appropriate diet as possible as their small size means they can easily become overweight. Avoid feeding them processed foods and stick to foods specifically designed for this breed of dog that are high in animal-sourced proteins and low in carbohydrates.
Before getting a Dachshund, it is important to make sure you have all of the essential items. First, you'll need a comb and brush to help groom your dog. A measuring cup is also essential for feeding your Dachshund so you can monitor their diet. Additionally, a collar and leash are needed for walks and potty breaks outside. Getting a comfortable bed for your dog is also important; you'll want them to have a quiet place of their own.
Generally speaking, yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. Dachshunds are of the miniature breed, with a height of 8-11 inches and a weight of 11-32 lbs. They are agile, short-legged dogs, and their long, slender body helps to achieve their small stature. Dachshunds make excellent companion animals due to their small size and typically even-tempered temperament, although they often prefer the company of their owners and may become nervous when left alone.
Dachshunds are highly energetic and inquisitive, so they need a good amount of regular exercise. However, these active and social dogs are also known for being couch potatoes! They love to keep their owners entertained with their independent streak and vocalizations. In general, Dachshunds need a moderate amount of activity to keep them healthy and happy. As long as they get regular walks, daily playtimes, and plenty of cuddles, they will thrive.
Dachshunds are generally known to be loving and loyal companions. When it comes to interactions with kids, most Dachshunds will happily coexist with them, but it will require a little bit of patience and training from both the dog and the kids. Generally speaking, Dachshunds do well with kids when properly introduced, however, since they were bred to be hunting dogs, they may be too energetic for small children. It is important to be aware that despite loving and devoted, they can be easily aggravated and are not the most patient of canines.
Training a Dachshund can be rewarding, although it is not always easy. They are smart and intelligent dogs, but their independent nature can be challenging for some owners. It is important to start training at an early age and to be consistent in the techniques used. Providing positive reinforcement and treats during training sessions as rewards will help keep them motivated and interested in the activities. Working on basic commands such as 'sit', 'stay', and 'come' at an early age will help establish good behaviors in the future.
