Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are incredibly interesting dogs. Not only are they well known for their long, slender bodies and short legs, but they have an abundance of unique characteristics. Their curious personalities and feisty attitude to life make them ideal companion pets, while their independent nature allows them to form strong bonds with their owners. Their relentless energy and determination make them stand out from other breeds and they are even known to demonstrate a reluctance to follow orders and rules.
Dachshunds may not be the best fit for those who experience allergies. Dander, pet saliva, urine, and other allergens from Dachshunds can trigger allergic reactions in some individuals. While there is no scientifically proven way to guarantee that owning a Dachshund wouldn't affect your allergies, it's important to be aware of the risks before investing in the breed. If you are unsure about your allergy risks or just want to be on the safe side, it's wise to consult with an allergist before bringing a Dachshund into your home.
Dachshunds have specific dietary needs, so it's important to choose a food that takes their size, exercise level, and any allergies into account. Some of the best dog foods for Dachshunds are high in protein, made using quality lean meat, contain healthy fats like salmon oil, and, since they they are prone to dental issues, are made with small kibbles that are easy to chew.
Before bringing home a Dachshund it's important to make sure you have the essentials in place to ensure it is a comfortable transition. Start by making sure there is a safe and comfortable space for the pup to call home, like a crate, dog bed, toys, and enough space for it to roam around. It's also important to invest in a collar with an ID tag, and if you're planning to take your pup on walks a leash and harness are key. Food and water dishes should be easily accessible, as well as some veterinarian-recommended food.
Dachshunds are a medium-sized breed of dog that usually grow between 5 and 9 inches (12.7 and 22.9 cm) tall at the shoulder, and weigh between 16 and 32 pounds (7.3 and 14.5 kg). Generally, their body length is twice their shoulder height. The smallest size of dachshund is the miniature dachshund, which typically weighs less than 11 pounds (5 kg), and has a shoulder height of no more than 5 inches (13 cm).
A Dachshund's daily exercise needs will vary depending on their age and the level of activity of the individual pet. Generally, an adult Dachshund should have at least 30 minutes of active exercise per day, with up to two hours more for dogs in active homes or those competing in sports. To achieve the recommended amount of exercise and activity for your dog, it is best to split the daily walk into multiple sessions potentially including walks, playtime, and independent activities like chasing a ball or tracking a scent.
Dachshunds can certainly make wonderful family dogs, as they are considered to be loyal, loving, and highly intelligent companion animals. They have even been described by some as being the "clowns" of the dog world due to their amusing personalities and playfulness. However, given that they are small dogs, they may not be ideal in households with children, as, without proper supervision, they can be easily injured by roughhousing.
Yes, Dachshunds are known to be quite intelligent. A study by Stanley Coren found that out of 129 different breeds of dogs, they ranked 20th in terms of their obedience and working intelligence. Additionally, they are active, playful, mischievous, and alert. These attributes lend to their cleverness when it comes to training and engagement with their humans. They are sometimes referred to as "The Clown of the Dog World", which could also indicate that they possess a higher than normal level of intelligence.
