Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are certainly an interesting breed and there are many fun facts about them! For instance, Dachshunds are known for their incredibly long and colorful history; in fact, their name dates back to the 15th century, with the breed originally bred to hunt badgers in their native Germany.

The answer to this question depends on your individual level of allergy sensitivity. There is no one-size-fits-all answer to this. In general, dachshunds are considered to be a low-allergen breed, meaning that they produce fewer allergens than other breeds. However, if you suffer from severe allergies, any amount of dander produced by a small dog such as a dachshund could cause an allergic reaction.
Dachshunds should not be fed anything containing discarded bones, small stones, or dirt, as these can cause severe health problems. Additionally, as a breed, they are particularly prone to obesity, so limit them to small amounts of healthy, high-quality foods and treats. Though Dachshunds live to eat, they should not be given foods like chocolate, grapes, or raisins, as these can cause severe digestive issues. Also be sure to never give them medication without your vet's approval, as different medications interact differently with their bodies.
Yes, Dachshunds do have some special requirements to keep them healthy and happy. Being a medium-sized breed, they need regular exercise to keep up with their playful personalities. Dachshunds, or “wiener dogs”, also benefit from plenty of mental stimulation throughout the day this can come in the form of positive reinforcement training or interactive play. Additionally, these pooches are the champion “diggers” so having a fenced-in yard or a designated digging area is essential.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds weigh between 16 and 32 pounds, and will grow to be about 8 to 9 inches tall at the shoulder when fully grown. The standard size varies, but usually they are between 16-32lbs. Miniature Dachshunds are between 11 and 16 pounds and grow to about 5 to 6 inches at the shoulder.

They can be just as active and full of energy as other canine breeds, and they even love to go on long runs and hikes. Dachshunds need plenty of physical and mental stimulation to stay happy, so regular exercise is essential to meet their needs. Daily walks, playing fetch, or even some agility training can keep them entertained and fit. With enough exercise and activity, these intrepid little companions can make for loyal and devoted lifetime friends.

Training your Dachshund can bring a number of benefits to your life and theirs, including better behavior and stronger bonds between you.
