Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are one of the most popular breeds of canine in the world. Originally bred to hunt small game, Dachshunds were also used to hunt badgers and at one time were even used as guard dogs. Although they are primarily bred to be companion dogs, they still have some of their hunting instincts such as burrowing. Dachshunds come in two sizes, Standard and Miniature, and three coat types: smooth, wirehaired, and longhaired. All varieties typically have long bodies and short legs.
A Dachshund's coat is usually short, smooth and dense, with a glossy shine. Depending on the variety, they can have a single-layer coat which is generally short and sleek or a double-layer coat which is a bit longer and coarser. Generally, Dachshunds have rather flimsy undercoats with longer guard hairs that protect them from the elements. The colors of their coats can vary from various solid colors including tan, black, cream, brown, grey or white, to more interesting combinations of those colors such as brindle.
Dachshunds are a unique breed and require a special diet to maintain optimal health and wellness. Although every breed is different, generally speaking, high-quality dry foods with an appropriate balance of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and essential vitamins and minerals are ideal. Look for food that is specifically designed for small breeds and those that are labeled as being formulated for weight maintenance. Aim for food that avoids fillers such as corn, wheat, and soy, as these can be difficult to digest.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, it is important to provide them with the proper care that they need to grow happy, healthy, and well-behaved. Begin by creating an appropriate space for your puppy to call their own; this may include a crate and toys for them to play with and chew safely. Ensure that you feed your puppy quality food and provide regular and complete veterinarian check-ups. Spend plenty of time with them to help build a bond. Training is also essential, not only for obedience and proper behaviors, but to help your pup mentally grow.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They usually have a strong and muscular body, measuring 16-32 cm or 6-12 inches tall. As they come in two sizes – Standard or Miniature – the Standard ones weigh an average of 10-12kg, while Miniature ones only weigh 4-5kg. Dachshunds also have short legs, long bodies, and long necks which helps them to fit into small spaces. They are also known to be lively, curious, and active, making them an excellent companion for individuals and families alike.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered to be active dogs. They are usually full of energy and enthusiasm. These playful pups love to run, jump, and explore. They typically require at least an hour of physical activity a day, which can include daily walks, playtime, and by running around a fenced area. Since they were bred to hunt and dig, they tend to like playing in the yard, and often need extra mental stimulation, like hiding treats or playing fetch. Even with their small size, Dachshunds are powerful little dogs who need plenty of exercise.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds are known for being very friendly and outgoing with people, including children. In most cases, Dachshunds will get along very well with kids, as long as they are socialized early on and exposed to children's behaviors and energies. It is important for owners of Dachshunds to make sure their pet is properly supervised when interacting with kids, as these dogs tend to be more excitable than other breeds.
Training your Dachshund can be a fun and rewarding experience. The first step is to establish yourself as the pack leader and develop an effective reward-based training system. Have a set training routine and be consistent with the same activities, timing, and locations. Choose an area outside, such as a backyard or park, and set aside a few minutes per day for training sessions. Start teaching basic commands such as ’sit’, ‘down’, ‘come’, and ‘stay’, using treats and positive reinforcement.
