Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a small-statured breed of dog with a long body, short legs, and a narrow muzzle. While they are small in size, their friendly, confident, and fiercely loyal personalities often belie their small stature. They are known for their long, floppy ears and short hair which often comes in a variety of colors: black, reddish-brown, tan, and sometimes a combination of all three. They were originally bred to retrieve game animals such as rabbits and hares from their burrows.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Contrary to popular belief, hypoallergenic dogs are not completely non-allergenic. As with other breeds, hypoallergenic traits have been bred into Dachshunds to make them less likely to cause or worsen allergic reactions. Even though some people believe Dachshunds may be less likely to trigger allergies, these dogs still produce allergens and can trigger reactions in sensitive individuals.
Dachshunds should not be given any type of food that contains bones, grapes, raisins, chocolates, candy, onions, garlic, yeast dough, or any other item that may be hazardous to their health. Additionally, they should not be given table scraps, as these can lead to excess weight gain, which can lead to other health complications. All food should be given in moderation and in accordance with the nutritional requirements set by your vet or a certified nutritionist.
Before welcoming a new Dachshund into the home, it is important to do some preparation and research. Start by learning about the breed's typical traits, behavior, and physical characteristics. Look into the exercise and training requirements of the breed so that you can create a schedule that is suited to your pet. Find out what type of food your Dachshund will need and if there are any particular health concerns that you should be aware of. Make sure to purchase all the necessary items such as a bed, toys, and a leash before your Dachshund arrives.
Dachshunds come in two different sizes, standard and miniature. The standard size typically weighs between 16 and 32 pounds when fully grown, is normally between 8 and 9 inches at the shoulder, and is between 8 and 9 inches long when measured from the forechest to the rear. Miniature Dachshunds weigh between 11 and 16 pounds, and measurement from the forechest to the rear should not exceed 5 inches. They typically stand between 5 and 6 inches tall at the shoulder. Regardless of size, all Dachshunds are long and strong-boned.
Absolutely, you can take your Dachshund running with you just make sure you keep your pup safe and take the right precautions. It is important to understand that Dachshunds are small dogs and have short legs, making it harder for them to keep up with longer legged breeds of dogs. You want to make sure that your Dachshund gets plenty of rest in between running intervals or long jogs. Before venturing out on a run with your pup, it is important to ensure that they are in good health and have all their vaccinations up to date.
Generally, Dachshunds do get along with other pets if they are socialized at a young age. In fact, Dachshunds are an ideal choice for those looking for a companion animal that can live in harmony with other animals. With proper etiquette and training, Dachshunds are capable of interacting well with other pets, including cats and even bigger dogs. In addition, Dachshunds have an amicable, loving demeanor that helps them to get along well with other animals in the home.

Training for basic obedience and good behavior needs to start at an early age and consistency is key in order for the training to be successful.
