Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are unique, fun-loving dogs with lots of interesting characteristics. The word “Dachshund” is German for “badger dog” because Dachshunds were developed to hunt badgers and other burrowing animals. Their long bodies, short legs and long ears give them a characteristic, distinct look. Dachshunds come in a variety of coat colors, including black and tan, liver and tan, red and grey.
Dachshunds are known to be low-shedding breeds, making them more suitable for people with allergies. However, it is important to note that no dog is completely hypoallergenic. Dog breeds like Dachshunds may reduce allergen levels because of their coat and shedding tendencies, but they still produce dander that can trigger the same allergy reactions.
Dachshunds should not be given bones, large pieces of rawhide, or other hard treats as these could result in broken teeth, gastrointestinal obstruction, or even internal intestinal injuries. Additionally, it is best to avoid feeding them human food like chocolate, onions, and grapes as those can be toxic for them. While it is ok to give them table scraps occasionally, it is important to be consistent and monitor the amount of food they are receiving to keep them from becoming overweight.
To prepare your home for your new Dachshund, it is important to ensure your living space is comfortable and safe. Decide on the best place for him to sleep and created a dedicated sleeping area with a comfortable bed or crate. It is important to provide some familiar items such as a blanket or favorite toy to help your puppy transition to his new environment. Establish a specific feeding and potty area that is easy to access and provides some privacy.
Yes, Dachshunds are definitively considered small dogs. In fact, experts classify them as toy dogs or miniature dogs due to their size, short-leggedness and overall shape. As a breed, the standard Dachshunds have an average height of 8-9 inches which translates to twenty to twenty-three centimeters. Additionally, the standard weight for Dachshunds is typically between 16 to 32 pounds.
Yes, you can take your Dachshund running, but it is important to note that it is best to gradually increase the intensity and duration of time spent exercising with your Dachshund. Just as with any other breed of dog, a Dachshund's body is not built to withstand the same stress as larger breeds and can easily become exhausted. It is important to also plan running/jogging routes accordingly with enough rest that is appropriate for their size.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds can get along with other animals if they’ve been properly socialized. Generally, Dachshunds are very good-natured and tend to do well with kids and other pets, provided there is plenty of companionship, supervision, exercise, and attention. Because of their curious nature, it's important to introduce a Dachshund to other animals in a controlled environment and under a watchful eye in order to ensure safety.
The amount of time you need to dedicate to training your Dachshunds really depends on their age, temperament, and the behaviors you wish to teach them. Generally, experts recommend anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes per day of focused practice. With puppies and young dogs, you may find that spending a few extra minutes on teaching basic commands and good behavior adds up quickly. As they learn, you can gradually lessen the amount of time you spend with your Dachshunds in training.
