Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a class of dog in the hound group. They are commonly known as “sausage dogs,” referencing their elongated bodies. This smallto medium-sized breed of dog originated in Germany and is known for their short legs and long, slim body. The most common types of Dachshunds are smooth and long-haired, but they also come in wire-haired or short-haired. Most Dachshunds have floppy ears, but the numbers with docked ears are growing in popularity.
Dachshunds have not been recognized as a hypoallergenic breed. While this does not guarantee that they will cause an allergic reaction, it should be taken into consideration when selecting a pet. Individuals considering this breed should speak to their doctor as some people may still be allergic to things such as the oils and/or saliva of this breed. Additionally, it is best to observe a dachshund in person for at least an hour to see if there is a reaction.
Your Dachshund should be given a balanced diet of high-quality dog food to ensure their health and wellbeing. Look for high-quality, species-appropriate foods specific to their size, age, and activity level to provide them with the necessary nutrients to maintain their active lifestyle. When feeding your Dachshund, ensure that you give them small portions of dry dog food several times per day or feed with small meals rather than one large meal. In addition to their dog food, try offering small amounts of cooked, plain meats and fish and natural yogurt as occasional treats.
Dachshunds have a few unique needs in order to stay happy and healthy. Dachshunds are known for having a higher than average risk of developing intervertebral disc disease. As such, special care should be taken that they do not jump off of furniture or engage in activities that involve excessive activity. A Dachshund should always be kept at a healthy body weight, to reduce any additional pressure on discs and provide joint support.
Dachshunds are often classified as small to medium-sized dogs, but that isn't necessarily an accurate description. While their smaller stature and weight puts them into the "smaller" category, they do have some features that could be considered "bigger". For example, their long legs help them to be quite agile and they have relatively long bodies in comparison to their size. Additionally, they tend to have a lot of energy and are often seen as fiercely loyal to their owners. All of these qualities may have you thinking that Dachshunds are in fact considered big dogs.
Dachshunds can often be seen indulging in a spot of swimming, although it is not a common activity among the breed. Some Dachshunds really enjoy swimming, while others are not so keen on it and prefer to stay on dry land. However, as with any activity concerning your pet, it's important to make sure that you supervise them if they do swim and that they are wearing a lifejacket if necessary.
Yes, Dachshunds can make great family dogs. These lovable little dogs are typically friendly and loyal, and full of personality. With their independent streak, they make great watchdogs and are always ready to jump into action when their owners need them. Dachshunds are also relatively low-maintenance when it comes to grooming, and their short stature makes them an excellent choice for individuals or families living in apartments or other small spaces. As long as they are provided with plenty of exercise and training, these pups can add a lot of love and joy to a home.
Training a Dachshund can be rewarding, but it requires consistency and patience. It's essential to establish the proper guidance for a Dachshund from the outset. Establishing a routine, using positive reinforcement, and avoiding punishments are absolutely essential for successfully training a Dachshund. It is important to remember that Dachshunds are active, intelligent, and independent, they require firm but gentle leadership. Training sessions must remain focused and brief as too much repetition or too long of a session can often lead to boredom in the dog.
