Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of small, long-bodied dogs with short legs. They usually weigh between 16 and 32 pounds and reach 8 to 9 inches in height. Originally bred to hunt badgers and other small game, this breed has adapted to a variety of lifestyles. Dachshunds are friendly, playful, and devoted. They make great companions with their loyal nature and can even give a warning bark when strangers come too close. Dachshunds have an alert, curious, and amusing disposition which makes them great family dogs.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic due to the amount of shedding their coats produce. It's important to note that different breeds produce different amounts of dander, which is the main culprit behind allergic reactions. Although dachshunds don't have a thick fur coat, their double coats composed of both under and top hairs can cause allergic reactions in some people. Regular brushing and grooming is essential to manage and reduce the amount of dander, however it's unlikely that even the most meticulous grooming can eliminate it entirely.
For Dachshunds, a premium, high-quality kibble or canned food is the best choice. Look for food that is fortified with vitamins and minerals, is a species-appropriate formula for small breeds, and is free from artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives. It should have real meat as the first ingredient, with proteins like chicken, turkey, beef, or fish. Whole grains and vegetables should be included for dietary fiber, while omega-3 fatty acids should be present to help promote a healthy skin and coat.
Yes, Dachshunds have several care requirements that owners should be aware of. Firstly, they should be socialized early while still puppies, as they can become aggressive or shy if not properly exposed to humans and other animals. Similarly, Dachshunds should be trained frequently, starting as soon as possible to get them used to following instructions and learning basic commands. Exercise is also important in order to keep Dachshunds healthy; sufficient and frequent outdoor play is welcomed by these active and intelligent dogs.
Dachshunds are relatively small dogs, usually weighing around sixteen to thirty-two pounds and reaching a height at the shoulder of eight to nine inches. While this size doesn't generally classify Dachshunds as 'big dogs', their long slender bodies give them a distinct look. Some Dachshunds may appear to be quite large because of their disproportionately long legs and backs, however when you compare a Dachshund to larger breeds like German Shepherds, Labrador Retrievers, and Great Danes, it's clear they can't be considered 'big'.
Yes, absolutely! You can take your Dachshund running provided you take a few steps to ensure your pup’s safety and health, such as having it properly fitted with a harness designed for running, and taking plenty of breaks along the way. Start off slow and ease up on the pace until you and your pup get used to the activity and build up stamina. Dachshunds have relatively short legs which are capable of going at a reliable pace.
Dachshunds are generally very friendly and especially playful with kids, making them a great choice for families. They will typically enjoy spending time with the children of the house, whether they be playing fetch or just curling up for a cuddle. However, it's important to realize that all dogs need a balance of structure and kindness in their interactions with children, and teaching your children how to interact with the family dog is just as important as teaching your dog how to interact with children. With proper guidance, Dachshunds can make fantastic and loving companions for kids.
Training a Dachshund is a bit different than other breeds, due to their smaller size and longer body, but the same general principles of reward-based training apply. It's important to be consistent in your approach and to offer positive reinforcement so that your Dachshund can learn. Start basic and work up to more difficult tasks, and always be aware of your Dachshund's capabilities. Potty training is a great place to start teaching your pup the basics--keep them on a consistent schedule and reward them for going in the right places.
