Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are members of the hound family, with a history stretching back hundreds of years. As their name implies, they are a small breed of dogs with a distinctive long body and short legs, making them instantly recognizable. Dachshunds come in a variety of coat types including smooth, long-haired and wire-haired. They make loyal, affectionate and playful companions and enjoy daily exercise. They were originally bred to hunt badgers and other small animals, so today they retain their tenacious personality and are loyal protectors of their family.
Whether a Dachshund might cause you to have allergies depends on the individual person’s sensitives and the environment in which the pup is living. Many people with allergies find that regular grooming and vacuuming of a pet's coat and bedding helps prevent or lessen allergenic reactions. If you are considering adopting a Dachshund, it would be wise to consider how your allergies may be affected. If you have specific allergies to pet dander, talking to your doctor or an allergist before adoption can be beneficial.
Dachshunds are energetic and hardworking dogs, so they need proper nutrition to maintain their health. The best diet for your Dachshund is one that is high in protein, fat, and complex carbohydrates that will give them the energy they need for a satisfying life. Look for food that contains good quality proteins like chicken, beef, or fish as the first ingredient and a mix of veggies, including green beans and carrots for minerals, vitamins, and fiber. Avoid foods with grains like corn, wheat, and soy as they are difficult for Dachshunds to digest.
Before getting a Dachshund, it is important to make sure you have all the essentials you need. You'll want to invest in a crate, bed, and food and water bowls that are the right size for your Dachshund. You'll also need a few different types of canine-safe toys, treats, and age-appropriate leashes and collars. Additionally, it's important to have food and snacks for your pup that are specially formulated for the breed and age.
Dachshunds typically reach their full adult size when they are eight to nine months of age. On average, they can range in size from 8-9 inches tall and 15-17 lbs for a miniature variant, or 12-15 inches tall and 16-32 lbs for a standard variant. However, their size can also depend on genetics, so discussing their background with a breeder may help give you a better idea of how big your puppy may be when he or she reaches maturity.
Dachshunds may be small, but they can be surprisingly strong swimmers! While some do not prefer to swim and may not engage in it, many others enjoy taking a dip. They may attempt to paddle with their short legs in shallow water, to the amusement of their owners. Most owners find that their Dachshunds can tolerate and even enjoy the cool water on a hot day. Older Dachshunds are less likely to enjoy a swim, and it is important to pay attention to warning signs if they stay in the water for too long.
Yes, Dachshunds can make good pets for first-time owners because of their friendly and loyal personalities. A Dachshund's low-maintenance grooming needs, their adaptability to different living environments, and their relatively low-energy level can all make them an appealing option for beginner owners. Plus, they are a great deal of fun and make wonderful, affectionate companions. To ensure that a first-time Dachshund owner receives a healthy pup, it is important to purchase from a reputable breeder, or consider adoption.
Training a Dachshund can be both rewarding and challenging. While the breed is smart and adaptive, their independent nature can be difficult to manage. The earlier you start a consistent training schedule, the better. Training requires patience and dedication, but with the right guidance, it can be extremely beneficial. Creating a positive reward system is a great way to encourage good behavior. Use treats and verbal praise when your Dachshund successfully follows a command. Be aware that Dachshunds are prone to challenges including short attention spans and stubbornness.
