Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are the smallest of the European hounds and are known for their short legs and elongated body. Fun facts about the breed include that they are used to hunt badger and were bred to be able to enter narrow tunnels. They tend to sleep an average of 12-14 hours a day and they are very loyal and protective dogs. Despite their small size, they are capable of running up to 11 mph! Dachshunds can be a variety of sizes, colors, and coat lengths. Common sizes include standard, miniature, and kaninchen.
Dachshunds can cause some people to have allergies. The cause of allergies in most cases is pet dander, fur, and saliva which all cause an allergic reaction. If you have a pet with a lot of fur and dander, you may be more likely to experience an allergy. Similarly, those with a sensitive immune system may experience an adverse reaction to a dachshund's fur and dander. However, each individual person's experience with allergies to a dachshund is unique.
Dachshunds are traditionally a hunting breed and so their diet should consist of high quality, protein-rich food that is specifically formulated for their size, activity level, and life stage. A good-quality diet for dachshunds should consist of food that is designed to promote healthy joint and skeletal function, as they are primarily short-legged, long-bodied dogs. Their diet should be nutrient-balanced, with an appropriate mix of vitamins and minerals.
Preparing your home for a new Dachshund is an important step to ensure that your pup is happy and healthy in your home. First, make sure that your home is safely secured from outside sources such as other animals or hazards by checking windows, doors, and fences for any potential sources of danger. Next, create a comfortable and safe space for your Dachshund with that just the right amount of toys and bedding. Cleverly hide away electrical cords and keep any cleaning supplies and medications locked away.
Dachshunds are considered a small breed of dog and generally fall into two size categories, standard and miniature. Standard Dachshunds typically reach 16-32 lbs and range from 8-9 inches in height. Miniature Dachshunds, on the other hand, are usually smaller, weighing 11 lbs or less and being 5-6 inches in height. Despite being naturally small, Dachshunds have a fearless personality, making them perfect for an active family who is looking for a dog to join them on their adventures.
A daily walk for your Dachshund is important for their physical and mental wellbeing. How many minutes per day you should walk them depends on a few factors, such as how old they are, and their activity level. Generally, a Dachshund needs to be walked at least 30 minutes per day, however if your pup is young and active, they may need more exercise. Additionally, you will want to factor in some extra time for mental stimulation, such as playing fetch or going to a park, which can help with their mental and physical health.
