Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are a small, short-legged, long-bodied breed of dog that belong to the hound group. They are a very popular breed, known for their unique look and playful personalities. Dachshunds are loyal and devoted to their owners, making them great companions. They are great with children and other pets, and generally don’t shed much. Dachshunds come in various sizes and colors, and some can be trained to become good watchdogs. They are generally active and curious so they need plenty of exercise to stay healthy and entertained.
Dachshunds are technically not non-shedding dogs. While they shed much less than other breeds of similar size, they still require regular brushing to prevent mats and tangles in their coats. Dachshunds tend to be seasonal shedders, meaning that they lose more hair during the seasons when days and nights have a cooler temperature. Regular brushing and grooming sessions during the seasons can help reduce the amount of hair that is lost.
Dachshunds should not be fed foods containing raisins, grapes, onions, or garlic, as they can be toxic for the breed. Owners should also avoid feeding them a large amount of fatty meats and dairy products, as they lack the kind and quantity of digestive enzymes necessary to process them. Even small quantities of these items can lead to weight gain and digestive issues. Other human foods should also be avoided, such as chocolate (containing theobromine, which is toxic to dogs), raw eggs (risk of Salmonella or E.
Preparing for your new Dachshund should be an exciting time! Start by gathering the necessary equipment: a collar and leash, a kennel and bedding, food and water bowls, and any other supplies that will ensure your pup is comfortable in its new home. It's important to find an experienced veterinarian to ensure your pup is in healthy condition as new Dachshunds will need regular check-ups.
Dachshunds typically come in three sizes: standard, miniature, and kaninchen (rabbit). Generally, the standard dachshunds weigh between 16-32 pounds and stand 8-9 inches at the shoulder. Miniature dachshunds are typically five to six inches in height and weigh around 11 pounds or less. The Kaninchen dachshunds weigh no more than 8 pounds and are 4-5 inches in height. However, all three sizes are known for their long, slender bodies, short legs, and floppy ears.
The amount of exercise your Dachshund needs will depend on several factors, such as age, health, and activity level. Generally speaking, a healthy Dachshund should take between 30 and 60 minutes of walk time each day. You can divide this time into several shorter, more frequent walks, as necessary. However, make sure to take your Dachshund out for a few longer walks each week to provide aerobic exercise and prevent him from becoming bored.
