Questions & Answers
A Dachshund is a breed of hound, most recognizable for their elongated, sausage-like build and short legs. Originally bred to burrow and sniff out small game like rabbits, they make excellent family pets and make for great companions as their breed is loyal, affectionate, and determined. They come in two varieties Wirehaired and Smoothhaired and three sizes Standard, Miniature, and Kaninchen (Rabbit). Dachshunds typically have a long lifespan between 12 to 16 years.
Dachshunds are known for having a beautiful coat that requires regular care and maintenance. Their coats come in a variety of colors including red, black, tan, cream, and brindle. The fur is generally short and smooth with an occasional tuft of wire-like hair distributed throughout. Depending on the climate in which they live, some Dachshunds may need regular baths in order to keep their coat clean and healthy.
Dachshunds are adorable, lovable dogs who need a healthy diet to maintain their energy and health. For the most part, dachshunds can eat the same food as most other dogs, including dry kibble, wet canned food, or a combination of the two. Additionally, it is important to ensure your dachshund is getting enough protein in their diet since they are prone to gaining weight, so consider feeding them low-fat, high-protein foods.
To prepare your home for a new Dachshund, be sure to remove any objects (like plants and wires) that they can chew and that can be poisonous to them. Move any fragile items out of their reach, make sure they have plenty of room to move around with their short legs, and keep furniture legs and corners securely covered to prevent them from scratching. Make sure to have a safe, comfortable bed and place for them to call their own. Provide plenty of safe toys to keep them entertained, like a stuffed toy or hard rubber ball.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They typically weigh under 30 pounds and can be less than 8 inches tall at the shoulder. Dachshunds come in two different varieties, Standard and Miniature, as well as three different coat types: Smooth, Wirehaired, and Longhaired. Generally, Dachshunds have short legs and long, slender bodies that allow them to fit into tight spaces to flush out prey. Their small size combined with their tenacious nature makes them excellent hunting dogs. They are also highly trainable and make wonderful companions.
Generally speaking, Dachshunds need at least 30 minutes of exercise per day to stay healthy. While less active breeds may not require quite as much activity, Dachshunds are known for their energy and enthusiasm and should therefore have a dedicated amount of exercise each day. A brisk walk or some jogging can help your Dachshund build and maintain strong muscles, as well as provide them with necessary mental stimulation. As the breed has long backs, jumping should be avoided to reduce the risk of injury.
Dachshunds can be gentle and affectionate with kids, provided they are given proper socialization training. With the right environment, dachshunds and kids can form a loving bond. They can be playful, silly, and loyal companions to children and can provide lots of laughter and joy. It's important to ensure that children are always respectful of the dog by keeping their enthusiasm in check and not being too rough. Proper boundaries should be established between children and the dog, as with any type of pet.
Training a Dachshund can be a rewarding experience for both owner and pup. With this breed it is important to start early and to be consistent with training to ensure long-term success. Basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, down, come, and leave it are a good place to start. Short but consistent training sessions of around 15 minutes each a few times a day and positive reinforcement will provide the most successful results.
