Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are undoubtedly unique dogs. A little bit of unusual history and traits have made them a breed that stands out. One of the most interesting facts about Dachshunds is that their original purpose was to hunt badgers. They were specifically bred to have certain physical features that would allow them to fit into the badger's tunnels to hunt them. Additionally, the interesting body shape of the Dachshund makes it the perfect dog for activities that require endurance, such as agility training or long walks.
Dachshunds are not considered to be hypoallergenic, as they shed their fur regularly and their dander can trigger allergic reactions. They also produce proteins in their saliva and dander, which causes allergic reactions in some people. As a result, individuals with allergies may want to consider another breed. Nonetheless, it is possible to reduce the impact of allergies through regular visits to the vet, good grooming, and regular brushing of their fur. Some owners also choose to groom their dog, removing loose fur before it can become airborne.
When feeding your Dachshund, it is important to provide them with a balanced diet that is specific to their needs. There are many commercial dog food brands that are tailored towards Dachshunds' needs, such as those with joint and muscle support. When selecting a food, pay attention to the ingredient list and choose formulas with real, recognizable ingredients, as well as ones that are rich in all-important nutrients like proteins, carbohydrates, fats, Vitamins A, B-12, C, D, and E, magnesium, fiber, and more.
Dachshunds are known for being a special breed, and as much as that can make them a joy to have as part of your family, it also means that they do come with a few additional requirements which may need to be met. Their elongated bodies require extra care and attention to make sure the joints are supported and that the spine is kept in the proper alignment.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They are one of the smallest breeds of dogs, with a typical size ranging from 11 to 32 pounds. Despite its small size, the Dachshund is a sturdy and powerful dog, with a muscular body that allows it to be an efficient hunter of various small animals. When it comes to personality, Dachshunds are known for being independent, brave, and even a bit stubborn. But once you find a way to bond with them, they can make some of the most loyal and lovable canine companions out there.
It's recommended to give your Dachshund at least 30 minutes of walking time each day. This should be broken up into two to three shorter walks of 10 to 15 minutes each. During the walks, it's important to provide plenty of opportunities for your Dachshund to explore, such as sniffing plants and investigating new areas. This will help keep them motivated and prevent boredom from setting in. You can also give them a few short breaks in addition to the walking, especially when the weather is hot or cold.
Dachshunds, like any other dog breed, may potentially get along with other pets in the home. Generally, they have a friendly disposition and get along especially well with people. However, introducing a Dachshund to other animals should be done slowly and with precaution. Supervised interactions with other pets while on a leash or in a confined space is suggested. Generally, with adequate socialization, patience, and training, a Dachshund can form a strong bond with other animals.
Dachshunds can certainly be considered smart. With their outgoing personalities and keen intelligence, these much-loved dogs have the capability to learn quickly and respond well to training. Even without the same level of snuggling as their larger dog relatives, they still demonstrate high levels of loyalty and dedication to their family and can easily be rewarded with love and positive reinforcement. Dachshunds have been known to learn both basic and advanced commands, as well as tricks like crossing their paws and shaking hands.
