Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are known for being one of the more humorous and spirited dog breeds. There are a few fun facts about Dachshunds that many owners may not know. Firstly, Dachshunds are known for their low, elongated bodies that make them look like tiny little moles. Also, despite being impressively small, these pups have big personalities and loves to be the center of attention. They also tend to be truly devoted to their owners and aren't afraid to express affection by showering love and affections.
Allergy management with Dachshunds is an important consideration. The best way to manage allergies with any breed is to reduce exposure to allergens. This means that it's important to keep the Dachshund’s living area clean and free of dust, pollen, pet hair, and dander. Also, take steps to limit contact with allergens by bathing and grooming the Dachshund regularly. Vacuum and wash bedding regularly to reduce the presence of pet dander and allergens.
Dachshunds are generally not picky eaters; they will eat a variety of different types of food. Their diet should contain high-quality dog food that is high in protein and fat for optimal health. It's also important to include supplements such as calcium, omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins in their diet. Additionally, some owners may choose to feed their Dachshunds raw meats or vegetables as part of their diet. Whichever food is chosen, make sure it is of the highest quality to maintain their active lifestyle and provide them with the nutrients they need.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is an important process! Begin by puppy proofing your house this means moving breakable or chewable items away from areas your pup can access. You should also consider buying items like a comfortable dog bed, chew toys, and treats as they can be beneficial to the training process. Dachshunds also need plenty of exercise, so make sure to create a space to help them stay active (and get rid of unwanted energy) when the weather is bad.
Dachshunds come in two different size varieties: Standard and Miniature. Standard Dachshunds usually weigh between 16 to 32 pounds and measure 8 to 9 inches tall, while Miniature Dachshunds can grow up to 11 pounds and are usually 5 to 6 inches in height. The size of an individual Dachshund puppy can vary, especially depending on their parents, so it is not easy to guess the size of your Dachshund puppy ahead of time.
Dachshunds are a lively and active breed, so they need a substantial amount of exercise to stay happy and healthy. Generally speaking, a Dachshund should have around 30 minutes of activity, which includes walking, running, and playing, every day. It's important that this activity is regular and varied, as without exercise, Dachshunds can become bored and develop behavioral issues.
Dachshunds can absolutely get along with other pets, although with the right training and supervision. Generally, dachshunds are friendly and affectionate, but also have a 'spunky' nature that may make them come across as more dominant. In addition, they can become jealous, particularly if they feel they are not getting enough attention from their owners. With proper socialization and familiarization of other animals, dachshunds can get along nicely.
Dachshunds are intelligent, curious, and highly observant dogs. They can learn through reinforcement, repetition, and positive reinforcement, which makes them highly trainable. Though they may not score as high as some other breeds when it comes to obedience and agility competitions, their excellent problem-solving skills, intelligence, and devotion set them apart. Dachshunds are very articulate in their own language and communicate their needs and wants to their owners quite readily. They have been known to use their minds to figure out ways to escape from fenced yards and open gates.
