Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a breed of small dogs originally used for hunting and tracking. They often have a stubborn personality but are incredibly loyal and love cuddles. Physically, these dogs are built for digging, with long bodies and short legs that make them capable of going through small spaces and hiding easily. Dachshunds come in different varieties, both smooth and wirehaired. They require regular and consistent maintenance, such as clipping their nails, bathing, and brushing.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Although, according to the American Kennel Club, they are considered among the breeds that produce fewer allergens than other breeds, they are still not considered a breed that is completely non-allergenic. Pet dander and saliva from the coat and skin of a dog can cause an allergic reaction in people with allergies. Therefore, if the goal is to reduce allergies, it is best to choose a breed that produces fewer allergens.
Dachshunds, like all other dogs, need a wholesome and balanced diet to maintain their health. They typically require high-quality kibble that is high in protein and natural ingredients, supplemented with a variety of wet foods including canned goods, dog-friendly meats, and organs. For snacks, Dachshunds get treats containing calcium, minerals, and vitamins. It is important to ensure that treats make up no more than 10% of the Dachshund's total daily intake of food.
Getting ready for your new Dachshund can be an exciting experience! Before your canine companion arrives, make sure your home is a safe and comfortable environment. Create an area in your home where your pup can feel secure. This can include bedding, an appropriate-sized crate, chew toys, and treats. Have food and water bowls ready, and establish a designated potty spot outside. Before bringing home your pup, make sure to puppy-proof any potentially hazardous areas of the house.
Dachshunds may not be as large as many of the common big-breed dogs such as Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherds, or Great Danes, but they can definitely be considered a big dog. The average weight of a Dachshund is between 16-32 pounds, while the average size ranges from 8-9 inches in height at the shoulder. Using these measurements, Dachshunds can exceed the size limits of some small-breed dogs and this designates them as a “big” dog.
Dachshunds do enjoy swimming and most are quite capable swimmers, although many do prefer to stay on dry land. While they are not water dogs like many other breeds, Dachshunds find swimming to be an enjoyable activity, especially in warmer months. They can benefit from the activity, allowing them to burn excess energy while their bodies receive the benefits of resistance training due to the water.
Dachshunds are generally friendly and loyal dogs who can get along well with kids. They can form an especially strong bond with children when treated with love and patience. Due to their size, however, Dachshunds may be better suited for families with older children who can handle them gently, as they have sensitive skin and bones that can be easily injured. Early socialization and obedience training is key in helping Dachshunds and children learn to get along. With the right guidance, Dachshunds can be an affectionate, playful addition to the family.
Dachshunds are generally considered to be intelligent, alert, and curious dogs that can be enthusiastic and spirited. They often display an impressive aptitude for learning and pick up commands quickly. Because of their strong devotion and protective traits, they make good guard dogs and loyal companions. Furthermore, they are often noted for problem-solving abilities, sometimes even recognizing their owners' commands before they are said. They can even be trained to do specific tasks for owners, like helping those with eye impairments.
