Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a popular breed of small hound dogs with a unique elongated body, short legs, and a lively personality. They are highly intelligent and loyal companions that love to be around their humans. They make great watchdogs and friendly house pets. Dachshunds have moderate exercise needs and do well with daily walks or playtime. They require daily brushing or occasional professional grooming to keep their coats in good health. They also need regular dental care to prevent periodontal disease.
It is possible that Dachshunds can cause an allergic reaction. While some people may not experience any allergies, there are many individuals who may experience sneezing, redness of the eyes, coughing, and even hives when exposed to the breed. These symptoms are often caused by proteins in the Dachshund's saliva and dander which can be released into the air and eventually come into contact with a person's skin or airways. It is therefore advisable to consult an allergist before considering bringing a Dachshund into your home if you are sensitive to pet allergies.
Dachshunds have a voracious appetite and they tend to enjoy a variety of foods including a steady diet of premium dry kibble that's customized for smaller breed dogs. To supplement their kibble, they also love moist foods such as canned wet food, as well as treats like raw carrots, pumpkin, natural yogurt and grain-free biscuits. Additionally, soft cooked boiled meat for special occasions is appreciated and enjoyed as part of their diet. Stay away from those table scraps and fatty meats as this can be indigestible and lead to obesity in the wrong amounts.
To become the best puppy parent for your Dachshund, be sure to provide your pup with a loving, safe and nurturing home. Spend quality time with your pup, teaching them how to properly and safely interact with you, family members, and people or animals they come into contact with. Be sure to provide age-appropriate toys and activities to keep your pup mentally and physically stimulated. Find an experienced Dachshund trainer and enroll them in puppy classes, not only to learn obedience but some socialization skills as well.
Yes, Dachshunds are considered small dogs. They are part of a group of dogs known as toy breeds and are one of the smallest in the toy group. As a breed, Dachshunds are short-legged and low to ground, standing anywhere between 8 and 11 inches at the shoulder. While their body is shorter than average, their body is also longer than its width, often proportionally longer than other small breeds.
While small dogs such as a Dachshund have plenty of energy, and may enjoy running, it's not recommended to take your Dachshund running. The small frame of a Dachshund could be incredibly susceptible to injury while running in comparison to other larger breeds. Furthermore, Dachshunds can't typically handle long distances so they have a low endurance. Instead of running, you could take your Dachshund for a nice walk or swimming, since it would provide ample exercise without the possibility of serious injury.
Dachshunds are noted for their friendly and playful personalities, so it's no surprise that they tend to get along very well with children. However, like any other dog breed, proper socialization is essential in order to ensure that they're comfortable with youngsters of all ages. As long as your Dachshund is well-raised, well-trained, and properly socialized, it should enjoy spending time with kids and even act as a loyal companion.
Training your Dachshund requires setting boundaries and positive reinforcement. To start off, it is important to set clear and consistent rules that they can follow. When introducing a new command or behavior, provide a reward when they successfully complete the task. Be sure to also include some playtime and reward them for good behavior after training sessions. Additionally, make sure to keep training sessions short, as Dachshunds have shorter attention spans. Be understanding and never punish your pet for mistakes; reward them for their successes and eventually they will learn.
