Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a a small to medium-sized short-legged breed of hound, originating in Germany. The Dachshund is recognized in two sizes, Standard and Miniature, and three coat varieties: smooth-, wire-haired, and long-haired. The long, low profile body of the Dachshund was developed to enable this energetic breed to successfully hunt badgers, which inhabited the european lowlands centuries ago.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. While all dogs produce allergens, Dachshunds are considered a breed which is more likely to cause allergic reactions. They produce dander, saliva, and urine which contain microscopic allergens that can cause sneezing, wheezing, nasal congestion, itchy eyes, and other symptoms. People with a known dog allergy should exercise caution when being around a Dachshund, as the canine may be more likely to set off symptoms than other breeds.
Dachshunds are small dogs, so their diet should be tailored to their size and energy needs. With that in mind, high-quality kibble specifically suited for their breed and size is recommended. These kibbles are formulated with a balance of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals tailored for Dachshunds. Some commercial brands also add a few extras like fish oil and other supplements that can benefit the skin and coat.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, you will need to take the time to learn about the breed's specific needs and understand the dynamics of owning a puppy. Research into their activity levels, dietary requirements and what to look for when it comes to training and grooming. Spend quality time with your pup every day and provide your dog with enough space for exercising. Make sure it gets enough socialization, especially as it begins to get older. Establish boundaries and be consistent when it comes to training.
While Dachshunds are known to be small in size, they can actually be considered big dogs. Their physical size may be small, but their personalities are large. Dachshunds will let you know they're there. They will often bark just to get your attention and make sure they are the center of attention. They are fiercely loyal and tend to develop strong bonds with their human companions. Because they are so devoted, Dachshunds make great guard dogs, even though they small size may lead you to think otherwise.
Absolutely! Taking your Dachshund running can be both fun and beneficial depending on their age and overall health, of course. Starting your Dachshund running at a young age can help keep their weight under control and improve their energy level. Just be sure to start out slowly and increase the amount of running gradually as your Dachshund gets older. Make sure to also watch the temperature, as the stress of running in excessive heat or humidity could make it risky for your Dachshund to carry on.
Dachshunds can be a great companion for children, as their playful personalities and friendly temperaments usually make them great around kids. Provided they are properly socialized, these popular pups thrive when surrounded by people. Dachshunds are especially known for their loyalty and generally gentle ways, which can help build a strong bond between the dog and its owner. That being said, it's important to note that early and consistent training is essential in order to ensure that the pup is comfortable living with other people, including children.
The amount of time you need to spend training a dachshund each day will depend on several factors, such as the dog's age and temperament, your goals for the dog, and the amount of practice it has had. Generally speaking, the recommended daily training time is between 15-30 minutes for an adult dachshund, but puppies will benefit from more daily training time, typically about 45-60 minutes. It is important to keep the sessions short and fun so your pup is eager to learn more.
