Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of dog that is often referred to as a "sausage dog". They are recognizable for their long, low stature, short legs, and elongated body shape. Their coats can be smooth, wire-haired, or longhaired in a variety of colors, usually including red and various other shades such as black and tan. Dachshunds are famously independent, loyal, and full of personality. They are intelligent and make great companions but can also be stubborn. Despite their size, they can make excellent guard and watchdogs.
Contrary to popular belief, Dachshunds do shed their hair, typically seasonally. While their shedding may not be as pronounced as other breeds, it is not recommended for owners looking for a hypoallergenic pet. Dachshunds have short, double-coat fur, which can become matted if not groomed on a regular basis. Although there are mixed opinions on whether or not Dachshunds are non-shedding, the truth is they do shed some hair, so owners should be prepared for it.
The best dog food for Dachshunds will depend on your pet's age, lifestyle, and nutritional needs. In general, you'll want to look for high quality dog food that is specifically designed for small breeds. Look for a formula with the right balance of proteins, carbs, and fats to support your dog's overall health. If your Dachshund has a special health need, such as a sensitivity to certain ingredients, you can look for formulas designed for those needs. For dental health, opt for kibble that is designed to reduce tartar build-up.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund requires some pre-planning and effort. First, assess your living area and puppy-proof your home. Make sure to remove any breakable items, sharp objects, electrical wires, toxic plants, chemicals, and human food that could be harmful to your puppy. Create a safe space for your dog and provide them with toys and comfortable bedding. Obtain a crate and use it to house-train and contain your puppy.
Dachshunds are small dogs, but they can range in size from 8-9 pounds and 11-12 inches long for a standard Dachshund, to a large Dachshund weighing up to 25 pounds. Miniature Dachshunds are usually around 5-6 pounds and 8-9 inches long. It's important to note that the size also depends on the Dachshund's coat.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running! However, because of their short legs and long bodies, they tire easily and cannot maintain the same endurance or speeds as other breeds. If you do take your Dachshund running, it's important to keep the distance short and typically restrict runs to a maximum of 1 to 2 miles. Make sure to give your Dachshund plenty of breaks, as they can overheat more quickly than other breeds and are at greater risk of dehydration.
Dachshunds are an excellent choice for first-time owners, given their loyalty, intelligence and affectionate nature. These breeds require moderate exercise and generally have a low-maintenance coat. Dachshunds are typically bold and brave, but can also be stubborn from time to time. They are usually alert and curious, and respond well to positive reinforcement-based training. With their small size, they are great companions for apartment living and they don’t have excessive barking habits.
Training a Dachshund is an important part of being a responsible pet owner. The breed is known for being intelligent and headstrong, so a consistent approach to training is essential. Training your Dachshund should be approached as a positive, rewarding experience for both you and your pup. Start by teaching basic commands such as sit, stay, and come, using treats and praise to reward good behavior. Make sure each session is short no more than 20 minutes at a time and always end on a positive note. Regular socialization with other people and other dogs is also very important.
