Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are incredibly interesting dogs! They are known for their long slender bodies, short legs, and a loving, loyal personality. Even though they come in a lot of different sizes, colors, and coat types, Dachshunds all have the same friendly and funny characteristic. It's no wonder why they are such beloved pets all over the world.
Dachshunds are not considered hypoallergenic, as they do shed a fair amount and can cause allergic reactions in people that suffer from allergies. While some breeds of dogs tend to be more "hypoallergenic" than others and can be better for allergy sufferers, this is not the case for Dachshunds. While a good brushing and vacuuming routine can help control dander and fur, the best thing to do is for potential owners to spend time with the breed they are interested in to see if they suffer any reactions.
Dachshunds are omnivorous which means that they can eat both vegetables and protein sources such as meat and fish. Regular dog food is an excellent option, with specifically designed food for Dachshunds available from many pet stores. To keep them healthy, dogs should be fed a good balance of vitamins, essential fatty acids, carbohydrates, and proteins. Other food options include cooked meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruits, and grains.
Yes, Dachshunds have some special requirements. For one, they require daily exercise to stay healthy and happy. While they are generally fairly low maintenance when it comes to grooming, periodic grooming will help keep their coat in top condition. While Dachshunds typically get along well with other animals, early socialization is important for them to ensure they are comfortable around other animals. Additionally, they require active supervision as their small size can lead to them getting themselves into trouble.
Dachshunds come in a variety of sizes, which can be differentiated by the two varieties of the breed: Standard and Miniature. Standard Dachshunds typically range between 16 and 32 pounds and grow to be 16-32 inches tall. Miniature Dachshunds, on the other hand, are a lot smaller in size and only grow to weight around 11 pounds and are no longer than 12 inches in height.
Dachshunds are an active breed, and like any pet, they need adequate exercise daily to stay healthy mentally and physically. They benefit from a variety of exercise ranging from walks and fetch, to mental puzzles and obstacle courses. Depending on your Dachshund's energy level, age, and diet, daily exercise should generally consist of 30-60 minutes that includes walking and other forms of activity. Some may need more than that and some less, so it's a good idea to discuss exercise needs with your veterinarian.
Dachshunds are great with kids and make wonderful family pets. They are generally affectionate and friendly towards children, making them a great companion for both single adults and families with kids. Dachshunds are intelligent and gentle, making them easy to train and a joy to live with. Additionally, because of their stature, they are great for households with children who might otherwise accidentally injure smaller breeds. Dachshunds tend to be fascinated with children and have enough energy to keep up with the most energetic.
Dachshunds are often considered to be both clever and intelligent dogs. Many owners have found that their Dachshunds can be especially clever and are quick to pick up new commands and tricks. While they may not be as apt to exhibit the same level of intelligence as breeds like the Border Collie or German Shepherd, their cleverness can come in handy when faced with a tricky problem. Additionally, many owners state that their Dachshunds are loyal and devoted, traits often linked to intelligence.
