Questions & Answers
Dachshunds belong to the Hound family and are classified in the Fédération Cynologique Internationale as Statterdachs, Sulimov dogs, and former German Badger Dogs. Generally speaking, they have long bodies, short legs, and droopy ears. In addition, they come in three coat varieties: short-haired, long-haired, and wire-haired.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds can be done in a few different ways. Firstly, bathe your Dachshund regularly to remove dander, dust, and other allergy-causing agents from its fur. If possible, try brushing your Dachshund outside, and limit it to handling the dog when outdoors to reduce the chances of bringing dander back inside. Secondly, vacuum and clean your home every 2-3 days to ensure dander and other allergens don't build up over time.
Dachshunds are a highly intelligent breed and can be prone to digestive sensitively and even obesity. Therefore, it's most important not to feed them anything that may be too rich for their system, such as table scraps, milk, cheese, and yogurt. Additionally, salty and sugary snacks should be avoided, as Dachshunds lack the enzyme to break down sugars. Nuts can also be problematic due to their fatty content and high potential for food intolerances, so it's best to steer clear.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund is an achievable goal if you are willing to put forth the effort and dedication to provide care, love, and attention to your pup. Start by learning all that you can about the breed. Consider the physical characteristics, needs, and temperament of the Dachshund to ensure that you provide the right environment and lifestyle for your pet. Provide quality toys, food, exercise, and attention that engage its senses and make it feel secure. Ensure that it receives regular visits to the veterinarian for preventive care.
Dachshunds are not generally considered 'big dogs', however they are longer than other breeds on average. They can range from 5 to 9 inches in terms of height, and weighs around 16-32 pounds. Despite being considered small size dogs, they are sturdy and courageous and have the same exercise and nutritional requirements of larger breeds. Little known fact is that one variety of dachshund was formerly bred to hunt badgers and was considered a medium-sized hunting dog.
Running can be a great way to give your furry friend the exercise they need, but it's important to consider if it is the right activity for your Dachshund. Each dog is unique, so it's important to talk to your vet and get their opinion on this activity. It's possible that the long spine and short legs of a Dachshund would not withstand a long run or play vigorously with others.
Dachshunds can make great family companions for households with young children. If fed and exercised properly, these loyal and spirited dogs can really thrive, becoming loving members of your family. Dachshunds typically do quite well with kids and can even pick up on their owner’s moods, providing affection when needed. Dachshunds are also very intelligent and can learn to respond to commands, further increasing the safety of children.
Dachshunds are smart and clever dogs that benefit from regular training. As for how much time that should take, it really depends on the individual dog and its experience level. If your Dachshund is a puppy or a rescue that has not had much training, it may take longer to teach them the basics. Somewhere around 10-15 minutes per day should be enough, although you may also need some additional training sessions each week to really get them up to speed. If your Dachshund is older and already knows the basics, less time is usually needed.
