Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are undoubtedly an interesting breed due to their unique appearance and personality. Contrary to their small, elongated body frame, they have a bold and spirited attitude and are often considered a "big dog in a little package". Their long ears and short hair can be found in a variety of colors, from black and tan, to cream, to sable. What's more, they can adapt well to indoor living and may even become lap dogs, which provides potential owners with a readily available companion.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are considered low shedding dogs, which means that they produce an amount of fur and hair much less than other breeds. In comparison to other breeds of dogs, Dachshunds do not shed as heavily, but they do shed some fur and hair, and it is important to brush your Dachshund regularly to keep the amount of shedding in check. To reduce the shedding even more, it is suggested to give the Dachshund a bath with a good quality shampoo on a regular basis.
Dachshunds typically require an age-appropriate, high-quality dry food. As they can be prone to obesity, a diet that is low in fat and calories should be considered. They should not have excessive protein or calcium, as this can cause joint issues. Dachshunds need to be regularly monitored to ensure they are getting the correct nutrition, and to keep their weight in check. Vitamin supplements may be beneficial, but it's best to consult a veterinarian to determine which type and dosage is appropriate.
Dachshunds have some special care requirements that should be taken into account when considering a Dachshund adoption. For their size and energy level, these dogs require a good amount of exercise each day. However, they tend to tire quite easily, so it's important to keep their activities short and sweet. Keeping a Dachshund on a regular grooming schedule is highly recommended. In particular, regular brushing and clipping can help reduce excess shedding and keep their coat healthy and their skin free from itching and allergies.
Dachshunds typically reach a height of between 5 and 9 inches and weigh between 11 and 16 pounds when fully grown. On average, a full-grown male Dachshund stands slightly taller and heavier than the female. Nevertheless, both genders are usually considered to be "small" breeds. A unique trait of these dogs is their long bodies and short legs, which contribute to their distinctive maneuverability and personality. Despite this size, they possess above-average activity levels and require regular exercise.
Dachshunds may enjoy swimming, as this breed is an excellent swimmer and loves to go for a dip in a pool or pond on a hot summer day. While they enjoy the water, it is important to note that Dachshunds can tire quickly and should not swim for extended periods. Also, since Dachshunds have a tendency to get cold quickly, they should be kept out of the water for too long--especially during cold weather.
Yes, Dachshunds generally get along well with children. They are an active and intelligent breed, so being around a child can provide the perfect outlet for their playful energy. However, as with any breed, a relationship should not be assumed and proper socialization should be employed. It's important that children learn to respect the dog by not bothering it and respecting their personal space. With the proper training and socialization, Dachshunds commonly make wonderful family companions.
The amount of time needed to train Dachshunds per day will differ depending on the individual dog and its level of experience with training. You may need to spend as little as 20 minutes per day or up to an hour or more depending on how responsive your particular pup is. To ensure your pooch is getting the most out of their training time, it's best to break it up into shorter sessions throughout the day and make sure that your furry friend is staying engaged and having fun.
