Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an active breed whose small size can create a misnomer, as they often have big personalities! They are known for being loving and devoted but they do need to be well socialized early. As they are bred to hunt, they can be excellent watchdogs due to their surprisingly strong bark. Dachshunds are fairly easy to groom and look after; as they have short fur, occasional brushing and wiping with a damp cloth is all they require.
Dachshunds are not considered to be a major cause of allergies; however, like all furry pets, they may cause some people to have an allergic reaction. It is possible to be allergic to any animal, and the severity of the reaction varies on a case-by-case basis. Before getting a Dachshund, it is important to research your family's medical history and make an informed decision on whether a Dachshund is the right pet for you.
Dachshunds are a small breed of dog that were originally bred to hunt and follow small game and to do so, require a nutritionally balanced diet. Providing an appropriate food for your Dachshund is key to helping them stay healthy and happy. When selecting a food, look for foods specifically designed for small-breed dogs. Even when choosing a diet for Dachshunds, be sure to read labels and ingredients to make sure the food meets their nutritional needs.
Yes, Dachshunds do have some special requirements. First, they require plenty of exercise including regular daily walks and play time. Dachshunds also have a strong prey drive which can make them difficult to call back if they see something they want to chase. Keeping them in an enclosed area or on a leash will ensure they stay safe. Second, Dachshunds are prone to spinal issues so they should not be forced to jump to high surfaces or carried too much. Proper care must be taken when bathing and handling a Dachshund to avoid unnecessary strain.
Dachshunds come in two official size varieties, standard and miniature. Standard size Dachshunds weigh 16-32 pounds and reach 8-9 inches in height, while miniature size Dachshunds weigh 11 pounds or less and have an average height of 5-6 inches. Additionally, there is a third size known as the "tweenie" which are larger than mini dachshunds but smaller than the standard size. A tweenie usually weighs in between 12 and 16 pounds and stands at 6-7 inches tall.
The amount of walking that a Dachshund needs per day depends on the individual dog and its age and health. Younger and healthier Dachshunds may need more exercise than an older, more sedate Dachshund. As a general guideline, experts recommend that Dachshunds have at least one 30-minute to one-hour walk per day. Additionally, bonus movement sessions can be incorporated throughout the day. These could involve playing in the yard for 10 15 minutes or visiting a nearby off-leash dog park.
Dachshunds typically get along with other pets as long as proper introductions are made and the dachshund is socialized from a young age. For best results, it is important to supervise any interactions between the Dachshund and other pets to ensure safety for all involved. If they are properly socialized and given adequate attention, Dachshunds can make wonderful additions to many multi-pet households. With patience and consistency, issues like territoriality and dominance can be overcome.
It really depends on the individual pup and how they respond to training. Generally speaking, Dachshunds require about 15-20 minutes of intense attention each day, with an occasional longer session (30+ minutes) once or twice a week. Keeping each session short and sweet also makes the experience more enjoyable for your pup, making them more likely to look forward to their next training session. Remember to stay consistent with consistency and remain patient when training Dachshunds, as they tend to be quite stubborn during the process.
