Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a small breed of dog that belongs to the hound family. These dogs are easily recognizable by their long bodies, short legs, and big floppy ears. The dachshund's origins can be traced to Germany and is said to have been developed in the 15th and 16th centuries. Aside from the standard size, there are two other sizes: Miniature and Kaninchen. This breed is loyal and active and makes an excellent companion for just about any home.
Managing allergies with Dachshunds is achievable. First, you should consider frequent brushing and bathing of the dog utilizing hypoallergenic or natural shampoos. Keeping the dachshund away from areas with strong air circulation or regular dusting can also help. In regards to feeding, avoiding brands with grain fillers and artificial flavors may reduce allergy symptoms. You might also try giving the dog raw, organic food or a homemade meal as this avoids potential allergens from commercial foods.
Dachshunds are generally healthy, active and playful dogs, but the key to their health is providing them with the right nutrition. The type and amount of food you feed your Dachshund should be based on their age, size, breed and activity level. A good quality dry dog food, tailored to the specific nutritional needs of a Dachshund, should be the primary source of nutrition for these dogs. Be sure to read the label to make sure the food you buy is appropriate for your Dachshund's life stage.
Being a great puppy parent for your Dachshund takes commitment and dedication. Start by learning as much as you can about the breed so you understand your pup's individual needs. Research their physical and behavioral needs, dietary needs, and activity requirements. Form a strong bond with your pup by taking time for regular, positive interaction with them. Make sure to socialize them with other animals and humans, and provide consistent, positive training to help promote good behavior. Make sure your pup has an appropriate amount of exercise for their age, and provide them with lots of mental stimulation.
Dachshunds come in two distinct size varieties which include Standard and Miniature. The Standard variety of Dachshunds typically weigh between 16-32lbs and measure 8-9 inches from the shoulder to the paw. Miniature Dachshunds are slightly smaller, weighing in anywhere between 11-16lbs and measuring no more than 5-6 inches from shoulder to paw. While both size varieties of this breed can sport the same unique look and temperament, people often think of the Standard variety as being a bit larger in size.
Dachshunds are known for their active personalities and love of physical activity. These lively little dogs need something to do and are often found running around and exploring their environment. They enjoy participating in activities with their families and can be found playing fetch for hours with their owners. Due to their small size, they don't require much space, making them an excellent option for the city or a small yard. Dachshunds do need daily opportunities to exercise and their playtime should be based on their energy level.
Dachshunds generally do get along with other pets. While they are known to have a mind of their own, they can learn to be sociable and accept other animals with proper socialization beginning at a young age. With early exposure to other animals, and firm yet gentle training, Dachshunds will typically coexist peacefully in a multi-pet home. As with any breed, it is important to supervise interactions between the Dachshund and other pets until you can be sure that they are comfortable with each other.
The amount of time you need to dedicate to training your Dachshunds each day will depend on the age and individual needs of your pup. Generally, puppies require more frequent and shorter sessions to practice basic commands. For puppies, plan to spend 10-15 minutes at least 3 times a day practicing commands that you will build upon. For older Dachshunds, the sessions can be more spread out and incorporated into the everyday routine.
