Questions & Answers
Dachshunds, sometimes known as "weenie dogs" or "sausage dogs," are small short-legged hounds that originated in Germany. They are full of personality and are renowned for their courageousness and hunting skills. Dachshunds come in variety of colors and two distinct sizes, Standard (over 16 lbs) and Miniature (under 11 lbs). These dogs require daily exercise and mental stimulation; they may become overly active and destructive if left alone for too long.
The Dachshund's coat varies greatly, depending on the breed and lineage. Generally, it's medium-length and straight, but some lines are longer and others are wiry. The coloring can range from red to brown to black and white. Its undercoat is dense and often features a unique grey-brown combination. Additionally, some Dachshunds have a double coat that affects their coat texture. The top layer tends to be sleek and glossy while the bottom layer is coarse and wiry.
Dachshunds are a breed of dog that require special care and attention. When it comes to food and nutrition, there are certain items that should not be fed to a Dachshund. These include grapes, raisins, and currants, as these can lead to kidney failure; onions and garlic, which can damage red blood cells; chocolates; and avocados, as they have been known to cause stomach and pancreatic problems. Additionally, it's important to avoid feeding them bones, as these can cause choking and damage to the digestive system.
Preparing for your new Dachshund should involve doing some research into the breed, learning about its unique needs and behavior. You will also want to find a good vet that specializes in dogs, and schedule regular check-ups and vaccinations. You'll need to find the right food for your new friend and decide if you will keep them indoors or outside. You'll need supplies such as a bed, toys, food/water bowls, a collar and leash, and a crate if you plan on crate training.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. The American Kennel Club (AKC) places Dachshunds in the Toy Group because of their small size and temperament. Their size ranges from 8 to 9 inches at the shoulder, although there are miniature Dachshunds that measure less than 5 inches at the shoulder. Dachshunds are sturdy, muscular dogs with short legs, long backs and floppy ears that can weigh up to 32 pounds.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are very active and agile dogs, and many pet owners enjoy taking their Dachshunds with them on runs. While running should not be their main form of exercise, short runs are an excellent way to give them the mental and physical stimulation they need. It's important to remember that because of their short legs, Dachshunds should not be pushed too hard and should always be allowed to rest. Make sure to adjust your pace accordingly and to stay in line of sight of your pup in case they need a break.
Absolutely! Dachshunds are typically very affectionate and enjoy the company of other animals. Though their size can create an impression of them being bold and fearless, they are actually quite gentle with other pets. They generally get along well with other breeds, but introductions should be done slowly and with caution. It is important to remember that Dachshunds can become territorial of their home and belongings, so proper pre-caution and socialization is necessary in order to ensure a stress-free environment for all animals.
Dachshunds are certainly smart and can be trained to understand a range of cues. Generally, they are inquisitive and clever dogs that can learn from watching and listening to their owners, and so can become quite adept at understanding commands. They are known for their intelligence and playfulness, and may even figure out how to open cabinet doors or cupboards if given the chance! Unlike many other breeds, dachshunds also tend to remember previously learned commands for much longer than other breeds, so you may have success with teaching commands that last for many years.
