Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are an incredibly loyal, intelligent, and playful breed of dog. They were originally bred to hunt small animals such as rabbits and weasels, so they are physically fit and have great stamina. These dogs tend to be quite active and full of energy, so they'll need plenty of exercise and activity. Due to their independent nature, Dachshunds prefer to have plenty of playtime and quiet time to relax. It is important to train a Dachshund from a young age, as they can be quite stubborn and independent.
Dachshunds are not completely non-shedding, however they do shed less than many other breeds. Notorious for their long coats, Dachshunds' furry exterior tends to conceal the small amount of shed hairs that do accumulate from their daily activities. They still require regular brushing and grooming to keep their coats in good condition. In addition, regular bathing and periodic trimming of nails will help to maintain their clean and neat appearance. Depending on the type and color of coat, some Dachshunds might require marginally more frequent grooming satisfaction.
Yes, Dachshunds do have special dietary needs. As they are highly active and have a fast metabolism, they require a diet that is a balance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates, supplemented with vitamins and minerals. Dachshunds should also get plenty of fibre to help with their digestion and regulate their energy levels. Since Dachshunds tend to enjoy their food and not always eat the most healthy items, their owners should feed them specially formulated dog meals, snacks and treats and emphasize lean meats, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats.
To be the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, it's important to provide plenty of love and attention, as well as proper training. Establishing consistent boundaries and routines early on is key and should include regular potty breaks, daily walks, chew toys, and lots of playtime. Consistently set and enforce rules so your pup will know what behaviors are acceptable. If needed, look into obedience classes for additional training support.
Dachshunds are not considered large dogs, by most standards. Although they are of average size, they are a breed generally shorter than the average pet. The size of a Dachshund differs based on how long their spine is, divided between two categories, standard and miniature. The standard size is usually considered to be 8-9 inches in height at the shoulder, and weigh between 16-32 pounds, while a miniature size usually falls within 5-6 inches tall at the shoulder and 8-11 pounds.
On average, your Dachshund should walk for at least 30 minutes each day, depending on their physicality and age. For puppies, 68 months old, 45 minutes of daily activity spread out over several different walks is recommended. Adult dogs, 18 years old, benefit from a minimum of 30 minutes exercise each day. Dogs 8 or more years of age should still get at least 30 minutes of exercise each day, but the intensity or duration can vary depending on their fitness and health.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds do get along well with most other pets in the home environment. Like any animal, their interaction with other pets is highly individualized and depends on many factors, such as their age, size, breed, and individual personalities. If properly socialized from a young age, Dachshunds will usually get along well with other dogs, cats, and even birds. Introducing new pets to your home should be done gradually and supervised until you're confident the animals are comfortable with each other.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding challenge. It is important to remember that this breed is full of stubbornness and a sense of independence, so it can take a lot of patience and consistency to teach them the basics. That being said, with the right guidance and consistency, a Dachshund can be trained effectively as well as respond to commands and tricks. They are an intelligent breed and many owners have experienced success in teaching these dogs how to behave and follow instructions. With the right amount of dedication and determination, training a Dachshund is certainly possible.
