Questions & Answers
Dachshunds are loyal and intelligent dogs that make fantastic companions. They were bred to be hunter's dogs so they are great for chasing small game, sensing small creatures in tight spaces and will often hunt even if not commanded to do so. Dachshunds tend to be loyal to one person more than any other family member but will often form bonds with all members of the family. They require daily exercise to keep them healthy and can be susceptible to hip and joint problems if they are not kept active.
Dachshunds are considered among many breeds of dogs to the "low-shedding" variety. Generally, these dogs do not shed very much, and their coats are usually quite short and fine. It is important to note that Dachshunds are considered a breed that does require maintenance and occasional grooming for their coats to remain healthy and free of mats. Furthermore, they can have seasonal shedding periods that require an increased level of grooming even though the amount of fur being shed is still relatively low.
Dachshunds require a balanced diet to maintain their health. The best food for them is one that is designed specifically for their breed. Commercial dog food is a great option as it offers the right combination of proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals that Dachshunds need. However, you can also make a homemade diet for your Dachshund that is nutritionally complete. Ideally, that means 80 percent of the diet should be made of animal proteins, such as poultry, beef, lamb, eggs, and fish.
The best way to become an amazing puppy parent for your Dachshund is to research the breed and understand its unique needs. Check in with your veterinarian to make sure all of their medical needs are met, and ensure that their diet is appropriate for their age and activity level. Aside from meeting their physical needs, it's important to provide your Dachshund with plenty of mental stimulation. Take some time each day to provide your Dachshund with puzzle toys, interactive play, and opportunities to learn new things, as these activities will help your Dachshund stay engaged and exercised.
Yes, Dachshunds are typically considered small dogs. They typically weigh between 16 and 32 pounds depending on breed and sex. The average height of a Dachshund is between 8 and 9 inches long, and their body length can range from 8 to 9 inches as well. Although all these measurements can vary, Dachshunds are generally regarded as a small breed of dog. They are a very popular pet due to their loyalty and intelligence, and their size makes them an ideal companion for apartment living.
Dachshunds are active little dogs and need regular exercise. Generally, walks of 30 minutes to an hour per day are recommended for healthy adult dogs. Puppies may need more time for exercise and playtime to help them grow into healthy adults. They should also have periods of free play running around indoors, as well as outside when conditions are safe. Make sure to have plenty of stimulation for this energetic breed to keep them mentally and physically healthy.
Dachshunds are generally good with kids if they have been socialized with them. Whilst Dachshunds may not be naturally as laid back and tolerant as some breeds of breed, they can make great companion animals and can form strong bonds of affection with children if the right techniques are used for training and socialization. For instance, it is important to use positive reinforcement and patience when teaching commands to a young Dachshund.
The amount of minutes a day that you need to train Dachshunds is contingent upon the age and experience level of the dog, as well as the desired outcome. For young puppies, you will likely want to start out by training them for short 10-minute intervals multiple times a day –– this way, they can learn quickly while not getting overwhelmed. For older dogs and those with more experience, you may only need to give them a few short 10 to 15 minutes sessions each day.
