Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are one of the most unique and interesting breeds of dog. Not only are they incredibly energetic, loyal, and loving dogs, they also have a fascinating physical ability that sets them apart. Originally bred to search out, chase, and flush out animals from their burrows, such as badgers and foxes, they have built in desire to hunt and explore. This makes them an ideal breed for long walks and exploration in the outdoors. They also have incredibly long and flexible backs as well as large heads and paws that make it especially easy for them to maneuver underground.
No, Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic. Although all dog breeds are capable of producing allergies, Dachshunds are known to produce more allergens than others. In fact, the American Kennel Club (AKC) states that Dachshunds tend to shed more than other breeds, which can make them especially problematic for those with dog allergies. It is advised that people with allergies consider breeds designated as hypoallergenic before adopting a Dachshund.
Dachshunds, like all other creatures, need food and water to keep them healthy and happy. The best type of food to feed your dachshund will depend on the age and activity level of your pooch. For puppies, a balanced diet is important, so it's best to feed a quality puppy food with all the necessary vitamins and minerals. Adult dachshunds should continue to stick to a balanced diet and can opt for slightly more protein-rich foods intended to meet their active lifestyle needs.
To ensure your new Dachshund's safety and comfort, it is important to properly prepare your home before their arrival. Start by making sure any objects or furniture that could harm or satisfy a curious puppy are out of reach. Additionally, it's important to create a safe space for your new dog with familiar items such as a kennel, a bed or even their own food and water dishes. Be sure to child-proof the area to prevent your puppy from accessing dangerous objects and providing them with chew toys and other items to keep them entertained.
Dachshunds are generally recognized as small dogs, historically having been bred to primarily hunt small underground prey such as Badgers. Although their frame is small compared to many breeds, Dachshunds are considered a medium-sized dog breed in the United States according to the American Kennel Club's breed standards. They typically weigh between 16-32 pounds, though it is not uncommon to find larger Dachshunds, and can reach a height of up to 9 inches.
Dachshunds are energetic and athletic dogs, so they need regular physical and mental exercise. Generally, they require about 30 minutes of moderate exercise such as walking and running daily. However, depending on the individual and their age, this amount can vary some may need a bit more activity, while others may do just fine with slightly less. In addition to regular walks, Dachshunds enjoy challenging activities such as playing hide-n-seek, agility exercises, and interactive play with toys.
Dachshunds can be a great choice for first-time owners since they tend to be loyal and affectionate. With their small size, they can easily adapt to apartment living, and their intelligence can make them easy to train. They can be independent and sometimes stubborn, which can be a challenge for first-time owners, but with proper guidance from an experienced trainer, they can learn to be obedient. They are also good family pets that can get along well with children and other animals.
Training your Dachshund requires patience, dedication, and consistency. Start off by establishing a clear set of rules. Decide which behaviors are acceptable and which are not, and always be consistent with your commands. Use positive reinforcement methods such as treats or verbal praise for desired behaviors, and ignore undesired behaviors. Keep sessions short and engaging by utilizing games such as hide and seek. Repeat commands and activities daily and provide variety to keep your Dachshund interested. Be sure to provide your Dachshund with plenty of exercise and playtime to prevent boredom and excess energy.
