Questions & Answers
Dachshunds belong to the hound breed group and are commonly referred to as a 'frisky sausage on short legs'. They are loyal, alert and highly devoted companions with a keen sense of smell. Dachshunds have a wide variety of sizes, colors and coats: short-haired, long-haired and wire-haired. They can even come in a mini size! Dachshunds are active, playful and alert with a big personality that can fit into any family.
Whether or not dachshunds will cause allergies depends on the individual. While it is possible to be allergic to any breed of dog, it is unlikely that a dachshund would trigger an allergic reaction greater than that of another breed. Dander, saliva, and urine, as with any animal, can cause mild to moderate allergies. If allergies are a consideration, it would be best to visit an allergist before purchasing a dachshund to ensure sensitivity to the breed.
Dachshunds need to be fed a balanced diet of quality kibble that is tailored to their size based on their age. You should also add some wet food, such as canned food or cooked vegetables and meats, to their diet every few days. When picking a kibble, look for high levels of protein, essential fatty acids, and other nutrients. Always read labels carefully and avoid artificial colors or flavors. Additionally, adding some treats to a Dachshund's diet is okay from time to time, but try to stick to healthy treats like vegetables or natural chews.
Before getting a Dachshund, it is important to stock up on some essential items. Make sure to buy a comfy, yet sturdy dog bed, as Dachshunds are prone to back injuries and need somewhere safe to rest their bodies. High-quality food and treats are also essential, as these will help to keep your pup healthy and nourished for years to come. You will also need a collar, leash and a good supply of puppy-safe toys for fun and exercise.
The size of a Dachshund puppy depends on a variety of factors, including genetics, diet, and exercise. It can be difficult to accurately predict how big a puppy will be as an adult. Generally, a fully grown Dachshund will stand between 8 and 9 inches at the shoulder and weigh between 16 and 32 pounds. A healthy puppy from two well-bred parents will usually reach its full size and weight by nine months of age. While Dachshunds can come in different sizes, it is still considered a small breed and should be treated as such.
Taking a Dachshund running can be done provided you take proper safety precautions. It is important to make sure the weather and temperature are safe for your Dachshund before beginning a running session. It is also a good idea to start slowly and build up running mileage as your Dachshund increases endurance. You should never force your Dachshund to run beyond what they are physically capable of, and it is equally important to ensure your Dachshund is getting adequate rest and hydration.
Dachshunds can make great companions for first-time owners. Thanks to their intelligence and submissive nature, Dachshunds can be trainable and loving. With a bit of patience and guidance, you can learn to use positive reinforcement practices to help your Dachshund adjust to their new environment and build a strong bond with their new family. In addition, these breeds tend to do quite well when living in smaller homes or apartments. They require minimal exercise and grooming needs, which is great for beginner pet owners.
Training Dachshunds requires an average of about 10 minutes per day. You should allocate at least 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes in the evening to focus on obedience training. Additionally, you should consider carving out a few extra minutes throughout the day to practice commands or tricks. If you have the time, try adding an extra session of longer duration during weekends or holidays. It's recommended to not exceed 15-20 minutes per day, in order to prevent tiring your pup out and possibly decreasing their motivation for learning.
