Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a breed of hounds, a type of dog that has been bred for trailing scents and alerting to their presence. The unmistakable long, low-to-the-ground body of the dachshund has bred an eternal curiosity about its breed classification. Often simply called “wiener dogs” or “sausage dogs” this canine is an officially recognized breed according to the American Kennel Club (AKC) and is classified within the Hound Group of canines.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. While the long-haired variety of Dachshunds requires regular grooming to prevent shedding, all breeds of this breed of dog will still shed, which can cause issues for people with allergies. For those wishing to reduce any risk of allergic reactions from owning a pet, it may be best to look into breeds that are specifically bred to be hypoallergenic, such as Bichon Frise or Poodles.
Dachshunds, also known as the "sausage dogs", should not be fed human food. They should not have table scraps, fried foods, foods that are high in carbohydrates or rich in fat, or foods that contain chocolate, grapes, and raisins, which can be toxic. They also should not have bones or any raw or undercooked foods. Additionally, they should avoid salty snacks and foods with artificial sweeteners added. It is best to provide them with a high-quality commercial food formulated especially for their size, age, and activity level.
Becoming the best possible puppy parent for your Dachshund requires dedication and commitment. To achieve this, it is important to familiarize yourself with Dachshunds. Make sure to read up on their temperament, needs, and exercise requirements. Additionally, make sure to research the possible health issues associated with the breed and be prepared with the proper resources to address them. When you bring your pup home, it's important to provide plenty of love, patience, consistency, and structure. Make sure to establish house rules and routine early on.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will depend on the particular breed and the puppy's parents. Generally, adult Dachshunds range from 8 to 11 inches, measured at the shoulder from the ground, and can weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. Though adult size is an indication of how big your puppy will be, it is not an exact measure, as some puppies may stay smaller and some may grow bigger. To get the most accurate idea, it is best to measure your puppy when it is fully grown and compare it to the size range of its breed.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running, although there are a few precautions you should keep in mind. Because of their small size and elongated body shape, Dachshunds can tire easily and be more prone to injuries from strenuous exercise, so it's important to start slow and monitor your dog’s behavior along the way. Consider shorter, more frequent runs so that your dog can escape the heat or cold and enjoy the outing.
Dachshunds can make wonderful family pets due to their joyful and gentle nature. They are usually very good with kids and other pets, provided they are properly trained and socialized from an early age. Dachshunds are loyal and have the potential to become good guardians and playmates to children. However, these dogs do require a certain amount of attention, so it is important to make sure the children are aware of proper etiquette when interacting with the dog.
Training a Dachshund can be both enjoyable and worthwhile. Start by researching training techniques specific for small dogs. Treats should be used in training and the treats should be small and easy to consume. You should also ensure you set aside time for regular, short training sessions, perhaps daily. It is important to use a consistent training style throughout, and to remember that rewards are more effective than punishments. Never use aggression or harsh language when training your Dachshund. Be sure to support your training sessions with plenty of verbal praise and positive reinforcement.
