Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are known as 'sausage dogs' due to their long and slender shape. They were historically used for hunting badgers in Germany, so they have a lot of useful traits in addition to being an adorable pet. They are independent-minded yet loyal, and they love to dig and explore. Dachshunds come in three different sizes: standard, miniature, and kaninchen (rabbit). They also have different coat types ranging from smooth to wirehaired.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are not considered to be hypoallergenic. They do require a fair amount of grooming due to their long, thick coat, which can lead to shedding and increased production of allergens in the air. While they may not be the best breed for those with allergies, many Dachshunds do have an interesting, low-shedding coat type which can reduce allergic reactions for some people.
Dachshunds are a popular breed, so taking good care of them includes providing them with the right diet. They should be fed high-quality, nutritious dog food that is specifically designed to meet their unique needs. Choosing a food specifically made for dachshunds is ideal, but if that’s not an option, look for a food with a balance of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals.
Becoming the best puppy parent for your Dachshund begins with providing love and attention, consistency in training and offering plenty of exercise. Create a safe, quiet environment for your pup and establish a routine to help them know what to expect and when. Understand the specific care and behavior needs of the breed and provide your pup with optimal nutrition and regular veterinary check-ups. Find ways to engage your pup's curious and lively nature by playing games or by exploring the outdoors. Spend quality time with your pooch by keeping them close with positive reinforcement and reward based training.
Dachshunds come in two sizes: standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds range in size from 8-9 inches in height at the shoulder and 16-32 pounds in weight. The miniature variety is 5-6 inches in height at the shoulder and weighs no more than 11 pounds. Breeders sometimes also produce a “tweenie” size, which is somewhere between the standard and miniature. Dachshunds also come in a wide variety of coats and colors, including wirehaired, longhaired, shorthaired, and wirycoated.
Dachshunds are fairly active dogs and can benefit from regular exercise to prevent boredom and obesity. While the amount of exercise each individual dog needs will depend on its age, breed, and overall physical health, a good rule of thumb is to ensure your Dachshund gets about 30 minutes of vigorous exercise every day. This can include brisk walks, runs, agility courses, and swimming. Additionally, it's important to provide plenty of mental stimulation for your Dachshund as well, in the form of interactive games, scent-based activities, and training sessions.
Yes, Dachshunds can often get along very well with children when they are properly trained and socialized from an early age. Dachshunds are generally gentle and affectionate with all members of the household, including kids. However, as with any canine, you should supervise all interactions between your children and your dachshund. It is important to teach your children how to interact with the dog safely and respect their boundaries. With the right training and supervision, dachshunds can make great family companions for years to come.
Absolutely, Dachshunds are incredibly smart. Their natural intelligence means they are quick to pick up on commands, and many owners report seeing results even during their first training session. They are great problem-solvers and are always willing to learn, making them perfect for families with children. Aside from being able to learn commands quickly, Dachshunds are also extremely loyal and have a strong desire to please their owners, which makes it considerably easier to train them than some other breeds.
