Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a unique and interesting breed of dog that stands out for a variety of reasons. A fascinating aspect of the Dachshund is their origin as they were bred to be long-bodied and short-legged to pursue and flush out badgers and other small game that had taken up residence in short burrows. Besides their ability to hunt, they are an incredibly loyal breed and are well-suited for all types of living environments from apartments to larger homes.
Dachshunds are low-shedding dogs and typically don’t need as much maintenance as other dogs. Although they do not shed a lot of their coat, they still do shed some hair. Grooming them regularly is important because they can become matted and uncomfortable if not attended to. It is usually recommended to brush their fur once a week to remove shedding and dirt. Regular baths can help to keep their coat healthy and reduce further shedding. Since they have short hair, weekly grooming can be accomplished relatively easily with a slicker brush and comb.
Dachshunds should not be given certain foods that can be found in human diets, such as chocolate, raisins, onion, garlic, and avocado. Some forms of cooked bones may splinter and cause internal blockages. Additionally, it is not advisable to feed Dachshunds with large amounts of any human foods as a regular diet, as they may not be able to process the food the same way a human can.
Dachshunds do require some special considerations that owners should be aware of. First, these adorable little dogs tend to have a strong hunting instinct, so it's important to provide them with a safe, enclosed area to exercise, or go on regular walks. Secondly, they are prone to back problems due to their long spines, making it important to be careful when lifting them. Additionally, having a short coat, they require extra protection in colder climates. Brushing them regularly also helps encourage healthy skin and coat.
The size of your Dachshund puppy will ultimately depend on its parents' genetics, but most puppies of this breed will grow to anywhere between 8 and 9 inches tall at the shoulder. Adult Dachshunds usually weigh between 16 and 32 pounds, but it can take some time for your pup to reach its full size. As your puppy grows, you should monitor its diet and exercise in order to promote healthy growth and development. With careful care, your puppy can reach its full size in as little as 18 months.
Dachshunds are a lively breed that need plenty of physical activity on a regular basis; however, the amount of exercise required can vary depending on the health and age of your pup. Generally, younger dogs may need one hour of vigorous exercise (such as jogging or playing in the yard) daily, while older pups should aim for a minimum of 30 minutes of daily exercise. Additionally, both adult dogs and puppies need adequate space, toys, and mental stimulation to help them stay active and healthy.
Dachshunds can be good with kids depending on the particular dog and its temperament. Generally, Dachshunds are very loyal and affectionate with their family, and with patience and consistency, good relationships can form between the dog and the kids in the household. Young kids should not be left unsupervised around any small breed, however, and children should always know how to properly interact with and respect the family dog. Proper training and socialization is essential for any dog breed, including Dachshunds.
Training a Dachshund may or may not be easy depending on the individual dog. These friendly and curious canines can learn relatively quickly, but they also require patience and consistency if you want them to keep up the behaviors you are trying to train. Dachshunds often require extra patience and attention when training because they can have independent and stubborn streaks. Positive reinforcement and clear commands are the key, and if done properly, can help make training a Dachshund much more enjoyable and doable.
