Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are often referred to as Weiners or Sausage Dogs because of their long and narrow body shape. They are lively, friendly, curious, and can often be seen with their ears laid back. They are classified as hounds belonging to the German hunting dog group and are believed to have originated in Germany during the 1600s. They make great companions, are comically affectionate and are generally great with children. Dachshunds typically weigh between 16 and 32 lbs, and come in a variety of fur lengths and colors.
Dachshunds are not hypoallergenic breeds specifically, however some individuals may be less prone to shedding and therefore cause less of an allergy impact than others. Due to the fact that this breed has a long, double-layered coat, it does tend to shed more than some other breeds, but regular and effective grooming will help to keep its coat healthy and better maintain a tolerable allergy level for those living with this breed.
Dachshunds have unique nutritional requirements and it's important to keep in mind when selecting the best dog food. Generally, Dachshunds should stick to a diet of high-quality, species-appropriate food, which means sticking to a protein-rich formula that is made from real meat. Additionally, Dachshunds need a food made specifically for their small breed, as it is important for them to get the right portion sizes, as well as the right balance of essential vitamins and minerals.
Dachshunds are known for their lively personality, but they do have some distinctive needs. Dachshunds, like all dogs, require a balanced diet, plenty of exercise, regular vet checks, and basic grooming. Dachshunds, in particular, need to have their necks and backs monitored. Not having enough exercise or having too much can cause injury. Also, Dachshunds can be prone to being overweight, so avoiding overfeeding is important.
Dachshunds come in two different sizes: standard and miniature. Generally, a standard Dachshund will measure between 16-32 inches from the floor to the shoulder and weigh between 16-33 pounds. Miniature Dachshunds measure between 11-16 inches from floor to shoulder and weigh 11 pounds or less. There are also sharp-looking Teacup Dachshunds, which weigh 4 pounds or less. Regardless of the size, each Dachshund variety is known for its brave and loyal temperament.
Yes, but it's important that you do it safely. When taking your Dachshund for a run, be sure to take him or her on a leash, particularly if you are in busy or unfamiliar areas. Additionally, it's best to start slow and keep your speed at a pace that your pup can handle—overheating and overexertion can be dangerous. If it's hot out, it's a good idea to bring water and make regular stops to hydrate.
Dachshunds are a great choice for first-time owners, as long as they understand the unique needs and characteristics of the breed. Dachshunds are highly intelligent, loyal, and loving, and they’re also relatively easy to train with patience, consistency, and reward-based techniques. They are known for their adventurous and spirited demeanor and can even be quite independent at times. They are also relatively low-maintenance compared to other breeds, requiring exercise, grooming, and medical needs on par with other smallto medium-sized dogs.
The amount of time you need to train your Dachshund each day depends on your training goals and methods. Generally, a good rule of thumb is to allow at least 15 minutes of focused, quality training for each day of the week. This can be broken up into multiple 5-10 minute sessions per day, if necessary. If you want your Dachshund to progress more quickly, increase their session frequency and add additional training sessions. However, if the training is too intense or too long, you risk boring your dog and putting them off the task.
