Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are small-sized hound-type dogs belonging to the Working Group recognized by the American Kennel Club. This breed is notable for its elongated bodies, short legs, and distinctive "hotdog" shape. Other characteristics of these long-bodied dogs include a pair of floppy ears, an alert facial expression, and a shiny coat. Dachshunds can have short hair, long hair, or wire hair, depending on the specific breed. They come in three distinctive sizes: standard, miniature, and toy.
While there are no guarantees, it is common for owners of dachshunds to have fewer allergies than other breeds. This can be attributed to dachshunds' lack of fur and lack of dander often associated with other breeds of dogs. While it is true that allergens from pet saliva, urine, or dander can all cause allergic reactions, dachshunds are generally known to have an extremely low rate of skin or coat related allergies. Additionally, regular grooming of your dachshund can help minimize allergen exposure.
Dachshunds require a balanced diet to remain healthy and active. A quality dry food specifically designed for small breed dogs is a good starting point, but fresh, high-quality ingredients should also be supplemented. While Dachshunds can eat many of the same things as humans, some types of foods may be harmful to them. It is best to avoid feedings containing too much fat or sugar. Including a variety of lean proteins, whole grains, and vegetables in your Dachshund's diet is important. Additionally, their meal sizes should be monitored to prevent obesity.
The best way to become a great puppy parent for your Dachshund is to provide love, companionship, and consistent positive reinforcement. Begin by researching the breed to be knowledgeable about their personality traits and care needs. Maintain a regular feeding and exercise schedule to ensure your pup is getting proper nourishment and remaining active. Establishing boundaries and providing consistent discipline will help to reinforce positive behavior. Interact with your pup every day, whether it be participate in activities, taking them on walks, or playing games.
While Dachshunds are small in size compared to other canine breeds, they are actually considered a "larger small breed dog," since they typically weigh between 16-32 pounds. Generally, when people think of a small dog, they often consider ones that typically weigh in between 6-15 pounds, so in comparison, Dachshunds could be considered "bigger." It's important to consider the breed's size, as Dachshunds can be prone to back problems due to their long bodies.
Absolutely! Dachshunds can make great running companions depending on their age and physical ability. It's important to start off slow with short sprints and then gradually increase the length of time and distance ran as your pup gets stronger and adapted to the running regimen. Make sure to carry water, bring portable bowl for when you stop, and encourage frequent breaks along the way. Remember to be mindful of hot and cold weather and protect your pup's feet with light booties. Running with your Dachshund is a great way to stay active and bond with your pet.
Yes, Dachshunds typically get along very well with children. While they have a reputation for being stubborn, they are incredibly loyal and become very attached to their family members. With proper training and socialization, they can be a great addition to any family. Dachshunds are known for their silly, playful personalities and can be tons of fun for kids to be around. They are also small, so they won't take up too much space in the home.
Training your Dachshund requires patience, consistency, and plenty of positive reinforcement. Develop a positive reinforcement plan and clearly establish a consistent reward system, such as treats or verbal praise. Start with easy commands, such as sit and stay, and then move on to more advanced behaviors. You may want to enlist the help of a professional dog trainer for guidance. Make sure that training sessions are kept fun and enjoyable for your pup; if they become frustrated they may give up. Ensure that the space used for training is calming and relatively distraction-free.
