Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a unique breed of canine that originated in Germany and was developed in the 1600s. These dogs have a long, low body with short legs, an elongated muzzle, and large ears, and they have an overall distinctive profile. They usually range in size from 15 to 40 pounds, and they’re considered a “sausage dog” due to their long build and body size. Dachshunds tend to be very vocal, and they make great family dogs, as they’re loyal and affectionate companions.
Dachshunds are known for having a long, sleek, low-shedding coat which makes them a great choice for those concerned about shedding dog hair. While their coats are low shedding, they will still shed small amounts of fur throughout the year allowing for occasional light brushing and grooming sessions. Generally speaking, they are more suited to people who prefer a low maintenance pooch who require minimal grooming. While they may not be considered entirely non-shedding, you can expect to have less fur around the home than some other breeds of dogs.
Dachshunds are a unique breed and require a well-balanced diet. It's important to provide them with the nutrients they need to stay healthy. A good choice for your Dachshund is a high-quality, age-appropriate diet with protein from animal sources. It should also contain an appropriate amount of fatty acids, carbohydrates, and other nutrients. Dry kibble is easy for your pup to digest, but you should also consider providing your canine companion with occasional wet food or fresh cooked food.
Before purchasing a Dachshund, it is important to consider some essential items that will make your dog feel at home and ensure his or her safety. These items include a collar and leash for walks, a comfortable bed, ID tags, high-quality food and treats, TOYS, grooming supplies, and a crate for training and travel. Additionally, it is important to have access to products to handle potential health issues or needs such as flea and tick medication, shampoo, and nutritional supplements.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: Standard and Miniature. Standard Dachshunds typically weigh between 16-32lbs and stand 8-9 inches tall at the shoulder, while Miniature Dachshunds are much smaller and usually weigh between 11lbs and 16lbs. Miniature Dachshunds stand 5-6 inches at the shoulder. In both varieties, males tend to be larger than females. True to their name, the Standard Dachshund is the bigger of the two sizes.
A Dachshund's activity requirements depend on its age, overall health, and size. Younger, smaller Dachshunds tend to need more exercise than older ones, which is why regular walks and playtime are important for all sizes and ages. Generally speaking, Dachshunds need at least 20 to 30 minutes of exercise a day. This should be split into two or three sessions. That being said, these pups are big on stamina and can manage more frequent periods of short and intense physical activity.
Dachshunds have an excellent reputation as great family dogs! They are loyal and intelligent, so they are able to provide companionship, support, and protection. Their compact size also allows them to be quite agile, and they are not prone to excessive barking or digging. They typically like to spend time with their owners and are generally good with children and other pets. They are also surprisingly independent, so they can be left to their own devices for extended periods of time without anxiety.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience, although it requires commitment, patience, and consistent positive reinforcement. As a breed, Dachshunds are known to be particularly headstrong and determined, which can make training more challenging. Developing a bond with your Dachshund and establishing yourself as a leader is key to successful training. Following a predictable and consistent routine for potty training, as well as basic obedience commands, can help make the training process easier.
