Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an old breed bred in the early 18th century in Germany but they remain popular to this day! Not only are Dachshunds a delightfully small and irresistibly adorable breed, they have some interesting and fun facts about them.
Allergies can cause many issues when living with a Dachshund. It is important to take proactive steps in reducing allergen levels and minimizing the effects of allergies. The first step is to reduce the amount of pet dander present by bathing your Dachshund regularly. Additionally, use pet friendly detergents when washing their bedding and give your pet regular grooming to remove dead fur. Avoiding carpeted areas where dust and dander can settle and frequently cleaning hardwood and tile surfaces is also beneficial.
Dachshunds typically eat high-quality dry kibble or wet canned food, either of which is nutritionally balanced, and high in proteins and fats. It's important to look for foods with whole ingredients like real meat, fish, or poultry as one of the first few ingredients. Some additional foods a Dachshund may enjoy include cooked lean meats (with the fat removed), plain cooked brown rice, boiled eggs, fresh vegetables, and fruit. As a special treat, they can also enjoy some plain yogurt, small amounts of cheese, or even a few pieces of bacon.
Before bringing home your new Dachshund, it's important to prepare your home and yourself for your pup's arrival. First, get the necessary supplies like food and water dishes, food, a leash, collar and identification tag, and toys for your pup to play with. Additionally, check your yard and home to make sure that they are dachshund-proofed, meaning that you should cover up any potential hazards like cords, wires, and small objects. Finally, research the breed you have chosen and learn about Dachshunds so you can be the best possible parent.
Dachshunds are usually considered a small breed and mature to a height of between 5-9 inches with a shoulder weight of up to 16-32 pounds. While there are miniature Dachshunds that typically weigh 11 pounds or less, there are also standard sizes that can weigh anywhere from 16 to 32 pounds. Additionally, it's worth noting that Dachshunds are remarkably long for their height and can measure up to twice their height in length.
Dachshunds have a natural affinity and love for playing in the water, so generally speaking, yes, they do enjoy swimming. However, Dachshunds have short legs and long torsos, so the breed may not necessarily be the best in the water. It's best to closely monitor your Dachshund while swimming and even consider getting a doggie life jacket for extra safety. Whenever introducing your Dachshund to the water, it's important to begin slowly and in small increments with a lot of positive reinforcement.
As a breed, Dachshunds tend to get along well with other pets, especially when they are socialized from a young age. Proper introduction of other pets is highly encouraged to all owners, as this will allow the Dachshund to become familiar with the other animals and feel comfortable around them. If given the chance to form a bond, many Dachshunds find themselves playing nicely with their canine and feline counterparts. It's important to remember, however, that not all Dachshunds are alike.
There is no definitive amount of time in which one should train their Dachshunds per day; the amount of time required is subject to your individual needs as a Dachshund owner. However, it is important to dedicate some time to training your Dachshunds since they are intelligent, high-energy dogs. A good starting point is about 15-20 minutes per day; this amount of time can be split into several short training sessions.
