Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a type of hound dog belonging to the AKC hound group. These medium sized dogs have short legs and a long body, making them easily recognizable. The name Dachshund is actually derived from the German word "dachs" meaning badger, which is what these dogs were originally bred to hunt. They're beloved for their playful and often mischievous personalities. As a hound, they tend to be incredibly independent with a strong will of their own and may require special care and training to prevent them from becoming unmanageable.
Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Dachshunds, like many other dog breeds, can cause allergic reactions such as sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, and runny nose if people are allergic to pet dander (shedding of dead skin cells). Some people may also be allergic to the proteins in the urine, saliva, and dander of any dog breed (not just dachshunds). Allergies to dachshunds and other pets can develop at any time.
Yes, Dachshunds have their own unique dietary needs. Generally, they should have a high-quality dog food with plenty of animal protein. They need a diet that is high in fat and fiber with carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and some animal by-products. Additionally, they may need supplements containing omega-3 fatty acids and glucosamine to help keep their joints healthy. The specific needs of your Dachshund will depend on a variety of factors, including its age, health, lifestyle, and breed.
Before getting a Dachshund, it's essential to make sure that you are well-prepared with the proper items. Start by getting a suitable dog bed and collar with tags, to ensure your pup is safe and comfortable. A Dachshund is a breed with sensitive skin, so investing in quality shampoo and conditioner is important. Additionally, a leash, food and water dishes, food, treats, and chew toys should all be on your list before welcoming your pup into your home.
Dachshunds are a small breed of dog, but they can vary quite a bit in size. Their size ranges from 8-9 inches to 15-16 inches when measured from the shoulder, and they generally weigh between 11-32 lbs. The Guinness World Records lists the tallest Dachshund ever as being 24 inches tall from the shoulder when standing. This is slightly larger than the average medium size dog, and while some people may consider these dogs to be "big", there are certainly larger breeds that outweigh Dachshunds by quite a bit.
Although every Dachshund is different, most seem to enjoy swimming. Some may take to the water naturally, whereas others may require some encouragement. Often, the best way to introduce a Dachshund to a pool or other body of water is to use a life vest and allow them to acclimate at their own pace. After some time, they may start to paddle around without assistance or even try to dive in! Although swimming may not be a natural instinct for these dogs, it can be a great form of exercise and provide wonderful mental and physical stimulation.
Dachshunds can be an excellent choice for a family with children as they can adapt well to a more playful and nurturing environment. Typically, Dachshunds are social and loyal dogs that enjoy interacting with people, including children. Generally speaking, Dachshunds are very trainable and smart, and they can be taught proper boundaries and acceptable behavior. With consistent and positive reinforcement, Dachshunds can make a great addition to a household with children.
Training a Dachshund is a unique experience that varies depending upon the individual dog. Dachshunds are active and intelligent, so they can be easily trained when you use positive reinforcement and provide plenty of exercises for them. Patience and consistency are key to training a Dachshund, as they can be easily distracted by their surroundings. Training should also begin early and be provided in a structured, consistent way so that the basic commands are mastered early on.
